Description

Part #: JL4000

Artec Industries is excited to announce our new JL Shield. The New JEEP JL front axle now includes a new Center Axle Disconnect (CAD) system for improved fuel efficiency. This new inclusion on the axle features a very thin sheetmetal skid plate from the factory which is prone to bending and denting, Not to mention being a rock magnet itself. Artec Industries is the First Company To Address This Vulnerable Part. Our new JL SHIELD is constructed from Heavy Duty 1/4 inch thick steel. Twice the thickness of the OEM skid plate. The new design also uses countersunk flat head bolts for improved smoothness on the bottom...meaning you'll have less edges to catch on rocks. To improve the smoothness, we've eliminated unnecessary edges and extended the leading edge to the front of the axle and included an angled flange to protect the axle and allow rocks to glide under. The JL SHIELD is fully welded and hard powdercoated for direct bolt-on installation and a long life. All this at a PHENOMENAL PRICE and manufactured in-house which means its MADE IN THE USA!
