The Motobilt Jeep JK Rubicon Dana 44 front axle truss is a great way to beef up the axle tubes on your Jeep JK and JK Unlimited. The Motobilt Jeep JK Rubicon Dana 44 front axle truss system is a quick way to add strength and style to your Jeep. The Motobilt truss wraps arount the stock upper passenger side link and extends out to both the driver and passenger side coil spring mounts for added strength throughout the length of the axle. You will see in some of the pictures that the truss fits very tight.
We have noticed some slight differences in the axles from Jeep. Some slight grinding may be required during the installation process. The top caps are CNC cut from 1/4 inch high strength steel plate and is slotted to align the front and back vertical caps. The front and rear caps are CNC cut from 1/8 inch inch high steel plate.
The plates are dimpled to add strength and cross section width to the parts. Essentially we can keep the axle a little lighter and make it look very cool with the dimple die holes. The kit includes a short and long side 1/4 inch top cap, two 1/4 inch vertical supports, and five 1/8 inch front and back dimpled plates. This kit requires an experienced welder to install on the vehicle.
