The thought of a 4 door Jeep previous to this was very odd. To some the thought of a 4 door Jeep was funny and had no place in off-roading. In the early years of the JK platform mostly bolt on accessory companies paid attention to the new release from Jeep. The hardcore offroad crowd remained focused on the Jeep YJ, TJ and tube buggies. The Jeep JK and JKU was manufactured from 2007 through 2018 (partial year in 2018 when the Jeep JL was released).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"divtext\" style=\"display: none;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the launch of the JK there was a pivot from a secondary vehicle mindset to a primarily vehicle mindset. More people were buying the JKU for an everyday driver. The JKU offered more room for daily life of commuting to work, the grocery store and getting the kids to school. With the changes Jeep became a great platform for weekend adventures and going about daily life during the week. Jeep clubs started to spring up all over the US and a new Jeep enthusiast type was on the scene. More bolt on products were flooding the market to include bumpers, light bar mounts, and more. Over time as older models of the JK\/JKU were getting cheaper in the used market the hardcore wheelers began building JKs. One ton axle conversion parts, custom suspension, roll cages and more started to be offered like what was previously only seen with the YJ and TJ market. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2714\/8736\/files\/5EDBAA05-EE51-4CD3-9CC2-62B923050272_480x480.jpeg?v=1588632517\" alt=\"\" style=\"margin-top: 5px; margin-right: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; float: left;\" width=\"335\" height=\"251\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere at Motobilt our goal is to service multiple customer types.

The Motobilt Jeep JK rear 1 ton axle swap with pinion guard makes installing a beefy rear axle in your Jeep a breeze. When designing our kit we wanted it to be easy to install. Whether you are a professional shop, or a DIY fabricator at home, this kit will save you time and money. Our kit spans much further across the axle than other kits on the market. This allows us to incorporate the spring mounts into the truss. You will simply bolt the pinion support onto the axle, and then set all of the other components onto the top. With the aligning tabs and slots, the install is fool proof.
The kit was designed to work with the GM 14 bolt rear axle that was found in 1996-2006 GM 2500 and 3500 Single Rear Wheel axle trucks. The wheel mounting surface (WMS) will be 68 inch wide and the casting on the center differential has lots of ribbing. Do not use an axle from a van as the differential is offset. When installing this axle, remember that you will need to address things such as the 8x6.5 bolt pattern vs. the Jeep's factory 5x5 bolt pattern.
