Spidertrax Spider 9 Ultimate 60 Full Steer Diff
Spidertrax Spider 9 Full Steer Diff
Although normally sold in individual parts by Spidertrax, we are selling this as a Full Front parts kit. Ok what you will get, unit bearings, Willwood brakes, custom rotors, axle seals, custom 50 degree knuckles, custom inner C, alluminium hat and Spider 9 housing. You will need to get axles, diff centre and u-joints to complete all the parts for the diffs.

Note there is not doubting the sucess of these diff as they are the choice off all the champion rockcrawlers in the US such as Jesse Haines, winner of the W.E.ROCK Eastern U.S. Nationals in Rausch Creek, PA. On day two of this event, Jesse proves 50Β° of steering, possible with Spidertrax Ultimate 60 Knuckles, can make a big difference in the end.

There is simply no knuckle on the market as innovative as the upcoming Spidertrax Ultimate 60 Knuckle. Spidertrax have prototyped two versions of this knuckle for sevral years now. Although both worked well in our field testing, the second prototyped version (V2) has received our stamp of approval and have made its way into final production . The V2 knuckle design works with Spidertrax 1 Ton Unit Bearings. Some key advantages of the V2 design are:

Light Weight - This knuckle blow away the competition when it comes to weight. Our complete knuckle set (inner & outer for both sides) sits at 57 lbs., roughly 2.5 times less weight then OEM style 60s! Don't confuse weight for strength either. With over 3 years of competition testing, these knuckles are every bit as strong as OEM and other aftermarket 60 knuckles.

Compact Design - This knuckle hugs the u-joint tighter then any OEM or aftermarket design currently on the market. This allows for a more compact setup while achieving an impressive 50Β° of steering angle.

Serviceability - The use of a spherical ball & race combo eliminates the bulk and weakness of standard ball joint setups and provides a much simpler package then kingpins. These spherical setups are designed specifically for axial loading (8000 lbs. ea. / 16,000 lbs. per knuckle!) and can handle plenty of punishment. Plus the use of two 3/4" shoulder bolts per knuckle allows for easy assembly and disassembly.

Cost - Laser cut, high precision CNC & formed steel eliminates the common high price tag on casted knuckles. Estimated target price is under $US1000 for a complete set of inner and outer knuckles with spherical ends and hardware (both sides)!

This Spider 9 housing is designed to work with centered and most all pinion offsets. At 65" in length, the Spider 9 housing tubes can be cut down to fit most all, front & rear, trail rig applications.

The all new Spider 9 axle housing is the product of over three years of hard engineering and real world testing. With rock crawling specifically in mind, this housing is nothing like your ordinary 9" housing. With ultra-high ground clearance, one piece shell construction, and compact size, this is the ONLY 9" housing built ground-up specifically for rock crawling. Six popular setups available. All Spider 9 Axle Housings are 65” long (plenty of axle tube to cut to size) and are available with forward engine third member orientation or mid-engine third member orientation (as used in mid-engine competition rock crawlers). All housings are designed to work with Ford 9” style third members. Third member mounting hardware and filler cap assembly included. Proud sponsor of Tracy Jordan, winner of the UROC 2005 & 2006 Supercrawl IV.

β€’ Single piece, ¼” thick, compact shell design provides more strength than any other OEM or aftermarket 9” housing center. Welded both inside and out for added protection.

β€’ Precision machined third member face provides both tighter fits and higher oil sealing accuracy.

β€’ More ground clearance than any other off the shelf 9” housing.

β€’ 3” diameter x 1/4" to 3/8" wall housing tubes provides incredible strength and easily allows the use of common aftermarket end components (like 60 knuckles & big bearing end cups). Unique design welds housing tubes to both shell and third member mounting face.

β€’ Off the shelf housing weight is less than 60 lbs. for 1/4" wall and 80 lbs. for 3/8" wall.

β€’ Large 1-5/16" diameter fill opening makes gear inspection and filling easy. Our trademark Spidertrax Oil Fill Cap is included with every Spider 9.
