Artec Industries APEX front axle trusses feature a unique peak-shaped top which provides extra rigidity to the whole truss. This allows both a reduction in weight and elimination of long weld seams which can lead to extra weld warping, longer install times, and inconsistency. This peaked structure also applies to the axle tube between the coil perches and extends underneath them, forming a complete truss from end-to-end of the axle. Despite its lighter weight (only 6 lbs.), this design has been proven to hold up to both extreme applications and daily driving.
