The Currie 44/60 Hybrid Portal Axles for 2007 thru 2017 Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU are complete bolt-in axle assemblies with all required brackets and mounts in place. The vehicle's factory rear driveshaft will require modification or replacement to accommodate the larger 1350 series u-joint and 60 series housing. New 8-lug wheels are required.

44 Hybrid Portal Front Axle:

Currie 44 High-Pinion

The heavy-duty nodular iron center section features 14 lbs of reinforcement over a stock 44 with thicker walls and webbing to deliver superior strength and rigidity

Axle Tubes

Large 3 in. diameter x .5 in. wall axle tubes (left) are more than 2.5 times stronger than the stock tubes (right)

Forged Inner Knuckles

Currie heavy-duty forged inner knuckles (right) are massively more robust than the stock knuckles (left) and are designed for severe off-road use with tall tires

Performance Axles

Currie Performance 4340 chromoly axles provide superior end-to-end strength over OEM carbon steel axles.

Portal Ends

74Weld Portal Ends provide 3.9 inches of axle lift, a 22% gear reduction at the hub, and upgraded 1-ton, 8-lug unit bearings that retain the factory ABS/Traction Control

Control Arm Mounts

Lower control arm mounts are one-piece construction with integrated skid plates to help fend off bracket-seeking rocks

Pinion Flange

The included 1310 pinion flange allows the factory driveshaft to be used without modification

Differential Cover

Rock-proof Currie nodular iron front cover protects expensive internals and adds structural support to the housing's face flange

Powder Coat Finish

UV Stable Satin black powder coat finish adds long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion to keep your Currie 44 looking its best

Currie HD60 Portal Rear Axle:

Currie HD60

Designed and optimized using computer simulation, the HD60 is reinforced in critical areas with thicker walls and heavier webbing to deliver maximum strength, durability, and rigidity

60-Series Gear

Gear diameter equals strength - the HD60's 9.75" gear (right) provides greater torque and load handling capacity when compared to the stock 8.66" gear (left)

Axle Tubes

Large 3.5 in. diameter .375 wall axle tubes (left) are more than 3x the strength of the stock tubes (right) without being overweight or sacrificing ground clearance

Chromoly Axles

35-spline chromoly full-float axles provide more than 2x the strength of the factory Gladiator Rear Axles

Portal Ends

74Weld Portal Ends provide 3.9 inches of axle lift, a 22% gear reduction at the hub, and upgraded 1-ton, 8-lug unit bearings that retain the factory ABS/Traction Control

Pinion Yoke

The upgraded 1350 pinion yoke provides increased strength and reliability over the factory 1310 yoke

Laser Cut Brackets

Currie heavy-duty laser cut brackets provide increased strength and maintain compatibility with stock and aftermarket suspension components

Iron Cover

Currie rock-proof nodular iron cover protects expensive internals and adds structural support to the housing's face flange

Powder Coat Finish

UV Stable Satin black powder coat finish adds long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion to keep your Currie HD60 looking its best

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

Wheel Bolt Pattern and Offset: Requires 8 x 6.5 (8 x 165.1 mm) bolt pattern wheels. We strongly recommend a 25 mm positive offset (approximately a 5.5-inch backspace)

Overall Width: The axle width with portals installed is 73.25 inches. The effective overall width with a 25 mm positive offset wheel is 71 inches

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: Requires a high clearance custom-width tie rod with JL/JT taper ends

Tire Size: Up to 42-inches
