This brings our crowned truss strength to the stock game.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur well-known crown-shaped truss design isn’t just for custom housings anymore — this kit adapts it for factory Ford 9\" housings without compromising strength or weight. Instead of the typical flat-back profile, this truss uses four strategic bends to drastically increase rigidity across the rear. It’s long enough to reach the brake brackets, eliminating the usual weak spots where other trusses fall short. Built from .135\" steel, it strikes a balance between durability and weight savings — thicker than 1\/8\" but not overkill.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat really sets this design apart is the way it mounts. Instead of focusing heat on one side of the tube, the truss runs the full width of the axle, allowing welds 180 degrees apart. That means far less risk of axle warp during installation. It’s a practical, purpose-built approach made for guys who care about keeping things true and tight the first time around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart Number: R1386\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for factory Ford 9\" axle housings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrown shape adds significant rigidity vs flat-back trusses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstructed from .135\" steel for optimal strength-to-weight ratio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull-length design reaches brake brackets to avoid weak points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide-mount truss reduces axle warping by balancing weld heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNote\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to factory Ford 9\" housing variations, some trimming or shortening of the truss may be required during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RuffStuff Specialties","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53429621915921,"sku":"R1386-Kit-1","price":167.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/9667\/2273\/files\/R1386-ford-9-inch-factory-back-truss-ruffstuff-specialties-1.webp?v=1776410795","url":"https:\/\/4x420-4-7.com\/products\/ford-9-factory-back-truss","provider":"4X420 Offroad","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
