Tera44/Tera44 Rubicon HD Front Axle Housings
Check out our new direct replacement Tera44 and Tera44 Rubicon HD Front Axle Housings for JK Wrangler/Unlimited models. Several options are available including bare axles or with a choice of ring & pinion, and with OEM Rubicon Locker or ARB Air Locker.
TeraFlex HD Front Axle Housings are perfect for replacing bent, broken, or damaged axles in JL Wrangler/Unlimited vehicles including Rubicon models. Can also be used as a direct bolt-on upgrade for Jeep owners looking to beef up the stock axle’s weak areas.
TeraFlex used its know-how from engineering the first Constant Radius Design, aka our Front and Rear Tera CRD60 HD Axle Housings, when developing our new line of Tera44/Tera44 Rubicon HD Front Axle Housings. As with the CRD60 that set the industry standard, the new Tera44/Rubicon raises the bar of innovation.
Customer, Hank, chose the standard Tera44 HD Front Axle Housing to use in his JK:
“I wanted to run RCV’s new 35-spline axle shafts in my housing, so the advantage of maintaining the original shafts wasn't really of use to me. But the option of running any aftermarket locker was important.”
