INTRODUCING ARTEC INDUSTRIES LINE OF FABRICATION BRACKETS

FORM+FUNCTION

OUR VISION - Offer a better looking bracket AND make it work better too!

With our new line of brackets, we want to introduce a better looking product that has that custom one-off look AND solve some of the issues that have plagued some of the generic brackets on the market, thus making them function better. Some common features that you'll see among our new brackets are: better access to grease fittings, bottom protection of the joint on lower link brackets, designs that make the bracket look like it was designed to be there from the beginning rather than just a piece of metal slapped on later, etc. Below are some of the highlights for this particular bracket that set it apart from all the others.

Everything you need - coil spring, shock and link mounts (optional) - all in one compact and easy to assemble bracket.
3/16" thick mild steel coil and shock brackets. 1/4" thick LCA brackets for strength and impact resistance. Precision CNC cut and bent for great fitment.
Coil correction STAMPED into coil bucket for a flush standing coil. Others mount a not flat coil on a flat coil bucket resulting in bowing or leaning.
Lower Link brackets available in 0, 10 and 22 degree angles...perfect for any suspension type. Link brackets can be offset in virtually any amount since they are separate brackets.
Option to not include lower link brackets for those who may already have them or have other ideas on what they want to do.
Bump formed Bumpstop pad with threaded retainer hardware allows you to use your factory style upper bumpstops.
Adjustable shock mounting width to use virtually any type of eye mounted shock
Narrow under structure allows you to overlap bracket over differential casting ends.
The STYLE of the bracket gives a unique, custom one-off look you'd get with a high dollar fabrication shop. No more brackets that look like modified pieces of angle iron or c-channel, but rather formed pieces of artwork to show off.

Q: It looks like the coil bucket is centered on the axle is that correct? I want to move my axle forward from the stock position to stretch it a little bit and this looks like the possible the right option.

Asked by: Kevin Boren - 2/20/2021

A: The coul spring mount on this is centered on the axle tube on a TJ/XJ/ZJ this could allow the axle to be pushed forward about 2"

Q: This bracket comes in pieces, are there any installation instructions?

Asked by: Dan - 5/13/2018

A: Nothing written, but the way they are made it is only possible to assemble one way. Once assembled they simply get welded together and then to the axle in the same position as the stock mounts.

Q: Will these clear the 14B modular truss and not be too wide for the average back halfed TJ/YJ? As an alternative to the TJ rear coil buckets offered in the combo kit?

Asked by: JJ O. - 7/12/2018

A: This Coil bucket is less wide overall than the normal TJ bucket with the flanges bent on the sides. You'll have more space with these to move the coil bucket around to line up. However the coil stamping and retainer is designed for TJ front coil springs not a rear spring so that aspect will not work. You could potentially remove the retainer and weld a tube to the center like the normal TJ rear coil perches.

Q: I’m looking at purchasing your ultimate coil bracket, but I might need to move the axle forward. Can this bracket be welded together offset to accommodate this? Thanks!

Asked by: Richard - 2/3/2021

A: This bracket can not be welded up so it is offset due to the stamping on the coil location and axle cutout
