Currie F9 fabricated 9-inch front axle assembly delivers the off-road race-inspired style with the strength, and durability enthusiast desire. The F9 fabricated housing features a heavy-duty one-piece CNC formed and gusseted Chromoly center section that reduces unsprung weight by more than 50 pounds compared to a cast center. The F9 is designed for severe off-road use with up to 40-inch tires and V8 conversion horsepower. If you seek out the most challenging routes and toughest obstacles to conquer, then the F9 is the axle of choice
The Currie F9 axle for the 2020 and newer Jeep Wrangler JL / Gladiator truck, is a complete bolt-in axle assembly with all required brackets and mounts in place. The vehicles factory driveshaft will require modification or replacement to accommodate the larger and stronger 1350 series u-joint.

Currie nodular iron 3rd. member set up with ARB Air Locker, big bearing pinion support and 1350 yoke for the utmost strength and reliability |
|
 |

Notes
ABS Sensors - Does not include ABS sensors, the factory sensors from the stock axle must be retained and installed on the Extreme 60 housing
Computer Programming: 2012 and newer vehicles require a computer programmer, such as the AEV ProCal Module to reset the gear ratio and tire height in the vehicle's computer for proper function of the vehicles stability control and transmission shift points
Brake Upgrade: The big brake kit included with the Currie F9 includes 13-inch rotors with dual-piston calipers to provide the stopping power required for 37-inch and larger tires
Wheel and Tire Size: 17-inch or larger wheels are required for proper clearance of the brake calipers. Maximum recommended tire size is 40-inches
Wheel Bolt Pattern: Requires wheels with 5 on 5 1/2"
Wheel Studs: Includes 1/2 inch wheel studs
Overall Width: Axle width is 70-inches (+4.6 inches over stock) between wheel mounting surfaces. Additional width improves turning angle with 37-inch and larger tires
Steering Stabilizer: Ram assist brackets are not compatible with and exclude the use of conventional steering stabilizers
