1-Ton APEX Rear 14 Bolt Truss Swap Kit for Jeep Wrangler JK 2007-2018

Artec's APEX Rear 14 Bolt Truss Swap Kit is a complete truss-and-bracket package for putting an AAM/GM 14 bolt 10.5 rear axle under a Jeep Wrangler JK (2007-2018). The 14 bolt remains the classic budget one-ton rear, and this kit sets the coil, link, shock, and sway bar locations to the JK's factory four-link geometry — no measuring and tacking every bracket by hand. For JK owners breaking Dana 44 shafts under 37s and up, it is the permanent answer.

Features

• CNC laser cut in-house from 1/4" and 3/16" mild steel
• Patent-pending APEX peaked top gives the housing more rigidity than a flat-plate truss
• Dimpled holes trim weight while stiffening the structure
• 3/16" truss deck locates the link mounts so upper and lower brackets line up
• Integrated coil brackets and bumpstop pads tie into the truss
• CNC-bent seams reduce welding by roughly 70% over older trusses for less heat warp
• Made in USA in North Salt Lake, Utah

Verify your donor is the full-float 14 bolt housing before ordering — this is a weld-on conversion kit, not a bolt-on suspension part, and it belongs in a capable fabricator's hands. If your donor is a Ford Sterling 10.5, the JK APEX Rear Sterling Truss Swap Kit is the right call. Want brackets without the full truss?
