Description
Boost your off-road performance with the Currie HD60 Front Axle Assembly, specifically engineered for 2007-2018 Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU models. This direct bolt-in axle is a game-changer in durability and reliability, featuring a robust high-clearance 60-series center section, 3.5-inch tubes, and high-strength chromoly axles. Our heavy-duty forged inner knuckles seamlessly integrate with your JK's factory outer steering and brake systems, ensuring a straightforward upgrade process.
Why choose the Currie HD60? It's the ultimate solution for eliminating front-end failure on off-road trails. The high-pinion design comes with fortified brackets and mounts, making it a perfect fit in the stock locations. Note that your factory outer steering and brake components will need to be transferred to the HD60, and a high-clearance aftermarket tie rod is required. Additionally, you'll need to modify or replace your factory driveshaft to accommodate the larger 60-series housing and upgraded 1350 series u-joint.
Take your off-road adventures to the next level and say goodbye to front-end concerns. Upgrade to the Currie HD60 Front Axle Assembly today!

Notes
-
- Tie Rod: The HD60 housing requires the use of a high-clearance aftermarket tie rod to prevent tie rod/housing interference at full turn. JK/JKU-compatible high-clearance tie rods are available from Steer Smarts (Yeti XD P/N 78065001)
- Driveshaft - A replacement driveshaft compatible with the larger 60 housing and 1350 yoke is required. Spicer PN 10113216 is recommended (verify manufacturer vehicle fitment)
- ABS Sensors: This does not include ABS sensors, the factory sensors from the stock axle must be retained and installed on the Currie housing
- Computer Programming: Vehicles require a computer programmer to reset the gear ratio and tire height in the vehicle's computer for the proper function of the vehicles stability control and transmission shift points
- Steering Stabilizer: The HD60 ram assist bracket requires an aftermarket stud-style trac bar bolt to accommodate a steering stabilizer. Trac bar bolts are available from FOX Racing P/N 803-02-028 or Synergy Manufacturing P/N 8806-01
