Replace your slow, unreliable vacuum or electric front axle engagement system with one of these 4x4 Posi-Lok cable activated systems. The Posi-Lok systems give you direct control of your front axle right from your cab, so they will engage every time. They have a short 1 in. throw to make shifting on the fly easy, and as an added bonus, a 2WD low-range to give you the rear-wheel torque of 4-LO, and the bind-free steering action of 2-HI.

Spicer Drivetrain Products front axle shafts feature an increased U-joint size that provides 25 percent higher yield strength than original U-joints. They offer unparalleled strength and longer life—the outer stub is re-engineered for added strength; improved snap ring retention reduces shock load failures; and material has been removed from the body and added to the yoke ears (to equalize deflection through the yoke and reduce bearing cap spinning). The axles are made from durable steel, with a micro-alloy improving their strength and a statistically controlled heat treatment ensuring proper hardness.

Artec Industries JL/JT APEX front axle armor kits include everything you need to make your factory housing the strongest it can be—including APEX front axle truss, front LCA skids, and inner C-gussets. Order the armor recommended for your Jeep application. Product details: * Patent pending APEX truss peaked top design provides more rigidity than a flat top truss design * Truss is CNC precision laser-cut in-house from 1/8 in. mild steel for a lightweight yet strong solution—only 6 lbs. * Truss is CNC precision-bent in-house for a great fitment; literally drop the truss in place on the axle and it's ready to weld—no puzzle piece assembling * Designed using 3-D models directly from Dana Corp and Jeep for an amazing fit and clearances with surrounding components * 70 percent less welding needed than previous truss designs means less warping, faster turnaround, and lower costs * All long seams are bent so you don't need to spend time welding them together * APEX design continues under the OEM coil buckets for complete end-to-end axle reinforcement—an industry first * Dimpled holes provide weight reduction, rigidity, and strength * Contours both the cast steel differential and FAD (front axle disconnect) and can be welded with normal MIG welder and moderate pre-heating and post-heating * Provides worry-free wheeling of up to 40 in. tires on stock JL axles * Bridges the front axle disconnect (FAD/CAD), shown to be one of the weakest sections of the front axle * Low-profile design doesn't go over differential and allows usage in vehicles with only slight lift * Front LCA skids and optional JL Shield are made from 1/4 in. steel * Inner C-gussets are made from 3/16 in. steel

Artec Industries Ford SuperDuty front axle trusses deliver a revolutionary low-profile design. They take the years of race and recreational abuse of Artec's first generation of trusses and add additional strength and functionality. Their key feature is how the truss top now bends around the differential for a better fit and clearance, making them ideal for vehicles needing more up-travel or for those building low center of gravity vehicles. The overall low-profile design means your axle is stronger, sleeker, easier to fit into any vehicle, and less likely to interfere with vehicle components. Features: * 3/8 in. thick mild steel truss top and 1/4 in. mild steel ram mount and gussets * Precision CNC-cut and bent for great fitment * Truss has super low-profile allowing better clearance for oil pans * Truss spans entire length of axle for complete reinforcement of the axle tubes * Truss is reinforced using interlocked 1/4 in. thick gussets for maximum strength and easy assembly * Main interlocking gussets are wider than Gen1 trusses adding overall strength to truss * Internal gussets conform tightly to the contours of the differential allowing you to weld to it for additional strength and rigidity * Truss is clearanced for differential breather tube

When you need only the strongest parts to keep it together, beef up your front-end with Artec Industries Dana 60 Front Hydro Ram mounts. Their overall low-profile design means that your axle is stronger, sleeker, easier to fit, and less likely to interfere with rocks or other parts of your vehicle. The mounts' unique design places your ram in its most effective and strongest location—close to the axle centerline, not high above it—and yet they protect it from the rocks. The Ram mounts extend to the end of the axle tube, providing reinforcement to the axle itself against bending and shearing. They're designed to take serious abuse and protect your steering. Artec Industries Dana 60 Front Hydro Ram mounts are available for fitment on a variety of applications, from 1960 and up. Product features: * 1/4 in. mild steel ram mounts and gussets are precision CNC-cut and bent for great fitment and reinforcement against damage * Ram mounts and gussets feature drainage holes for easy cleaning and reduced weight * Mounts double as an axle skid plate, offering protection for your ram and tie rods—and span the length of the axle tube for more reinforcement against bending and shearing * An additional 1/4 in. thick bolt-on skid plate in front of the differential allows easy removal of gears; it's bolted using included countersunk bolts, which don't get hung up on obstacles and hold up against trail damage * These kits require general welding and fabrication skills

Spidertrax Off-Road's all-new 1480 40 spline front axle stubs are a reinvention of their already proven 35 spline stub shafts. Manufactured from billet 300M aerospace material with an integrated positive locking design—all while achieving 50 degrees of steering—they're the next best thing in stub shaft technology… and the last stub shafts you'll ever need. These 1480 40 spline stub shafts are designed to work with 60 style U-joints and Spidertrax 40 spline Ultimate Unit Bearings. * Aerospace Quality: Spidertrax follows the strictest AMS Aerospace standards for their heat treatment, complete with double tempering, snap tempering, and cryogenic treatment procedures. Parts are sampled to ensure proper grain structure is achieved up to 0.0003 in. from the surface; that's a depth 1/10 the thickness of a human hair! In summary, you're getting the best material and the best heat treatment on the market. * Locked: Turning 40 degrees is impressive, but Spidertrax axle shafts can turn 50 degrees. Engineers achieved this by positively locking the shaft to the Ultimate Unit Bearing with a billet aluminum cap and cap screw. Keeping that stub shaft tightly secured not only helps with driveline vibration, but helps with overall strength of shaft and U-joint. * 40 Splined: Each stub shaft is 40 splined—a size that makes perfect sense, especially when running properly paired inner axle shafts. When sized with the same shaft diameter as inner shafts, stub shafts end up taking the full punishment in your front-end. The stub shaft should be "stronger" than an inner axle because unlike an inner axle, stub shafts have little room to twist, making them more prone to failure. An added bonus: with many drivers running 40 splined rear Ultimate Unit Bearings, having the same unit bearing up front makes for better serviceability and part simplicity.

Artec Industries JK APEX front axle trusses introduce a whole new level of cost savings, strength, weight savings, simplicity of installation, precision fitment, and complete axle protection never before seen in the industry. The key feature that sets the APEX truss apart is its unique peaked shape top which provides extra rigidity to the whole truss, while allowing both a reduction in weight (vs. using a thicker material top) and eliminating long weld seams. Previous versions with long weld seams have led to extra weld warping of the axle, longer install times, and can be inconsistent. This peaked structure not only applies to the axle tube between the coil perches, but extends underneath the coil perches as well—forming a complete truss from end to end of the axle, an industry first in an OEM axle application. The JK APEX truss has been tested and proved to hold up to both extreme applications and daily driving.
