LM1 9" Fabricated Axle

LM1 is proud to introduce our all new 9 inch fabricated axle.   The LM1 9” axle is designed to be a direct bolt in to your factory or most aftermarket suspension systems.  This axle will reuse your factory (or most aftermarket) suspension arms, shocks, ABS sensors, brakes, e-brakes, wheels, and hardware (note that the drive shaft does require modifications).  This saves you from the added expense of having to upgrade your wheels, brakes, and other components.   

The fabricated 9 offers a tremendous improvement in strength and durability over the stock axels along with a slight increase in ground clearance and a reduction in un-sprung weight.

Durability

The LM1 fabricated 9” is built to withstand the toughest conditions and punishment you can put them in.  We offer a 3 ½ inch outer diameter, 3/8 inch DOM axle tube.  The center pumpkin bolsters a ½ inch face plate with ½ inch lower outer shell.  The face plate is machined after fabrication is complete to ensure perfect alignment with the outer bearings and seals to the third member along with providing a flat sealing and seating surface for the third member.   For additional structural support, the axle tubes are internally gusseted to the pumpkin walls.
