Complete 1 Ton Rear Axle Swap Kit for Jeep JK

Take your JK build to the next level with the Artec JK 1 Ton Rear Axle Swap Kit with Truss, designed to make swapping in a heavy-duty rear axle simple, strong, and precise.

This kit includes all brackets and a truss system needed to install a 1 ton rear axle (14 bolt or Sterling) into your Jeep JK while retaining proper suspension geometry and mounting points.


Why Go 1 Ton?

  • Supports larger tires and heavier builds

  • Increased strength and durability

  • Ideal for rock crawling and extreme off-road use

  • Reduces risk of axle failure under load


Key Features

  • Includes APEX truss system (select axle option)

  • Designed for 3.5" axle tubes (or similar)

  • CNC laser cut and bent for precision fitment

  • Brackets made from 1/4", 3/16", and 1/8" steel

  • Includes all mounting points:

    • Upper & lower control arms

    • Track bar

    • Coil springs

    • Shock mounts

    • Sway bar mounts

    • Bump stop pads

  • Pre-aligned bracket system saves install time (no guesswork)

  • Adjustable track bar mount with multiple positions for lifted setups


Axle Compatibility

  • GM 14 Bolt (AAM 10.5") – 1999–2006 GM 2500/3500 SRW

  • Ford Sterling 10.25 / 10.5 – Super Duty axles

  • Works with other axles if:

    • 3.5" tube size

    • Proper width for UCA mounting


Important Fitment Notes

14 Bolt:

  • Requires newer ribbed housing (AAM 10.5")

  • Minimum 68" WMS width

  • Older 14 bolts may not support ABS brackets

Sterling Axles:

  • Offset design may cause gas tank interference

  • May require:

    • Axle stretch

    • Aftermarket fuel tank


What’s Included

  • APEX truss (axle-specific option)

  • Full bracket system:

    • Control arm mounts

    • Track bar mount

    • Coil spring mounts

    • Shock mounts

    • Sway bar mounts

    • Bump stop pads

  • Setup template for correct positioning


Important Notes

  • ABS components NOT included

  • Requires welding and fabrication

  • Some grinding and fitment may be required

  • Rock crawlers & trail rigs

🧾 Rock Rig Supply Return Policy

At Rock Rig Supply, we get it — sometimes a part just doesn’t fit the build, or a project takes a left turn halfway up the hill. We’ve been there. That’s why our return policy keeps things simple, fair, and flexible (because real-world wrenching isn’t always perfect).


🕒 1. Return Window

  • Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery.

  • Items must be unused, uninstalled, and in original condition with all packaging.

  • Every return gets inspected before we process it — we don’t cut corners, and we don’t want you to either.


🔧 2. Custom & Built-to-Order Parts

  • Custom, one-off, or built-to-order parts carry a 50% restocking fee.

  • They’ve been made just for you, so we can only take them back if they’re unused and still in sellable shape.


💰 3. Refunds & Store Credit

  • You can choose between a refund or store credit after your return is approved.

  • Some items may have an additional restocking fee depending on condition.

  • Refunds typically appear 7–10 business days after approval, depending on your bank.


🚚 4. Return Shipping

  • If we messed up (wrong item, damaged, or defective), we’ll cover return shipping and send you a replacement on our dime.

  • If it’s a “changed my mind” or “wrong fit” situation, you’ll cover return shipping.

  • Not sure which way it goes? Shoot us an email at rockrigsupply@gmail.com and we’ll help you sort it out.


⚙️ 5. Used or Installed Products

We know how it goes — sometimes you bolt something up and realize it’s not gonna work.
If the part’s been used or installed, email us first at rockrigsupply@gmail.com.
Returns for used parts are handled case-by-case at our discretion because we understand that not every project goes as planned.


🧰 6. Garage Sale Items

Our Garage Sale section is full of awesome deals — open-box, blemished, and used parts that still have plenty of life left.

  • All Garage Sale items are sold “as-is.”

  • No returns, refunds, or warranties on these.

  • We do our best to describe the condition, but little quirks or wear come with the territory.
    You’re scoring a deal, and we’re clearing the shop — win-win.


🔄 7. Exchanges & Buy-Backs

  • Unused, uninstalled items qualify for free exchanges or store credit.

  • If a part’s been installed or opened, we may offer a buy-back depending on its condition and resale potential.


🚫 8. Non-Returnable Items

  • Gift cards, Garage Sale items, and consumables (fluids, sealants, etc.) are non-returnable.

  • Items missing packaging or showing heavy use may be denied or refunded at a reduced rate.


📬 9. How to Start a Return

  1. Email rockrigsupply@gmail.com with:

    • Your order number

    • Photos (if damaged or defective)

    • A short note about what’s going on

  2. We’ll reply with return instructions or a prepaid label (if applicable).

  3. Once inspected, we’ll issue your refund, store credit, or exchange.


💪 10. The Rock Rig Guarantee

We actually run the parts we sell — they’ve been hammered, flexed, and tested on real trails. If something doesn’t hold up or doesn’t meet your expectations, reach out. We’ll make it right, because that’s how we’d want to be treated.
