Aluminum Mid Arm Kit Front 3-Link Only for Jeep Wrangler JK 2007-2018
This kit converts the front of a 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK or JKU to a single-upper three-link using 2.0" OD 7075-T6 polished aluminum lower links. A three-link front frees up articulation and packaging around the front driveshaft on hard-working crawlers, and the aerospace-grade aluminum cuts serious unsprung weight compared to the steel arms it replaces. Artec proved these 7075-T6 links over years of ARTECON test-rig abuse, covering both extreme rock crawling and daily driving. It is the front-only version for builders who already have their rear links sorted.
Features
- Two 2.0" OD 7075-T6 polished aluminum lower links
- One 1.5" OD polished aluminum upper link for the single-upper layout
- Rock Krawler Krawler Joints: 1.25"-12 tpi on the lowers, 7/8"-14 tpi on the upper, with matching jam nuts
- Left-hand Rock Krawler 7/8" UCA U-bracket with stud included
- Threaded ends with wrench flats for on-vehicle length adjustment
- 7075-T6 aluminum sheds significant weight over steel tubing and will not rust
- Validated through years of ARTECON rock-crawling and street testing
Artec calls for a 3"-4" lift, wheels with at least 4.5" of backspacing (factory wheels do not clear), and extended brake lines; springs, shocks, limit straps, and sway bar extensions are not included, and frame- and axle-side brackets are needed to finish the conversion. Measure each factory arm center-to-center and set the new links to match before alignment. Pair it with the JK Rear Mid Arm Kit to do the whole Jeep, or compare the dual-upper Front Only kit and the complete Front 3-Link full kit. More options live in our control arms collection.

Aluminum Mid Arm Kit Front 3-Link Only for Jeep Wrangler JK 2007-2018 FAQs
What do I need besides this kit to run a front 3-link on my JK?
The kit supplies the links, Rock Krawler joints, jam nuts, and the UCA U-bracket with stud. You still need frame- and axle-side bracketry such as Artec's HD Crossmember with Link Mounts and an upper link mount, plus a 3"-4" lift, wheels with at least 4.5" backspacing, and extended brake lines. Springs, shocks, limit straps, and sway bar extensions are also sold separately.
Will this fit my 2-door JK or only the 4-door JKU?
It fits both the 2-door JK and 4-door JKU from 2007-2018, since the front suspension layout is shared. This listing covers the front only — Artec sells a matching rear kit and a complete front-and-rear 3-link package if you want to do the whole Jeep at once.
Can aluminum control arms survive rock crawling?
Yes. Artec ran these 7075-T6 links for years in its ARTECON test rig under extreme rock crawling and daily driving before releasing them. The alloy is aerospace grade, far stronger than common 6061, and it saves significant weight over steel tubing while never rusting.
