14 Bolt Axle Truss Trail Version
SKU MB4007
Only $299
The 14 Bolt Axle has become a go to axle for rock crawlers and rock bouncers. The 14 Bolt full floater is strong, easy to find in salvage years, cheap to get parts for, and a large amount of aftermarket parts are available. The Motobilt 14 Bolt Axle Truss Trail Version was designed to be simple, easy to install, low cost, and allow room for mounting coil springs, coil over shocks, suspension link mounts, and so on. This design is narrow to the axle center section for a reason. The trend over the past few years is to keep the over all ride height as low as possible thus creating clearance issues at full bump. With this narrow design it will not hit the frame rails or our Motobilt Backhalf kits.
The main body of the 14 Bolt Axle Truss Trail Version is CNC Laser Cut from 3/8" thick high strength steel plate. It is then formed using a hydraulic press brake. The pinion support and pinion guard are CNC laser cut from 1/2" steel plate. The Motobilt 14 Bolt pinion guard features an industry first angled design to reduce the shovel that all of the others create on the front of the axle.
DETAILS
***This truss fits the early full floater 14 Bolt Axles as well as the newer model full floaters with the cooling fins. If you have a newer model with cooling fins you will have to grind down a couple of the top fins slightly for clearance.
