Product Description
Artec Industries | Front Center Axle Disconnect (CAD) Sheild | 2018-2025 Jeep Wrangler JL, 2020-2025 Jeep Gladiator JT
The JEEP Wrangler JL and Jeep Gladiator JT front axle now includes a new Center Axle Disconnect (CAD or Front Axle Disconnect FAD) system for improved fuel efficiency. This new inclusion on the axle features a very thin sheet metal 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.
The Artec Industries all new Wrangler JL SHIELD is constructed from HEAVY DUTY 1/4" 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, all unnecessary edges have been eliminated 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 and JT 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!
