Notes

Front Axle Disconnect (FAD): This axle assembly eliminates the factory FAD and requires a computer programmer, such as the Tazer Mini or Tazer Lite, to disable the factory sensor and turn off the FAD warning message. 

Outer Knuckle Assemblies: The Currie 44 is designed to reuse the complete stock Gladiator outer knuckle assemblies from the ball joints out (knuckles, hubs, disk brake calipers, and rotors)

Overall Width: Axle width is 68.0 inches (stock Gladiator Rubicon) between wheel mounting surfaces

Vehicle Lift: If using the factory height suspension or a leveling kit without bump stop spacers, an aftermarket track bar is required to clear the differential cover. The RockJock 4x4 track bar RJ-9120FJLF provides ample clearance.

Tie Rod: If the vehicle came stock with a narrow-track front axle (66.5 inches), a Rubicon width tie rod is required

Builder Series: Housings do not include brackets; they are intended for customers or shops that will be fabricating the required brackets

Tire Size: Recommended maximum 37-inch tire size due to the inherent limitations of the stock brakes, wheel bearings, and axle u-joints
