Portal Axles
What are Portal Axes and why are they so cool? This is a big question that many off-road enthusiasts have had and many have answered for themselves. Let us bypass that step and show you what makes portal axles so damn cool for off-roading. Simply put, portal axles use a set of gears and a housing mounted on the ends of the axle or control arms next to the wheel to increase ground clearance under the axle. This raises the centerline of the axle and axle tubes or control arms, raises the differential relative to the wheel mounting surface, and pushes the wheels down relative to the differential and axle tubes or control arms. check. It is like the ground clearance at what is usually the lowest point of the vehicle. And, as you know if you've spent any time on the trail, the lowest fixed point on your vehicle is usually what keeps your 4x4 from moving forward when you get stuck. Portal axles are an interesting, if somewhat complex, answer to a simple problem we've all had off-road. The effect results in the same handling benefits as a much larger tire without many of the complications that larger tires would add.
Technical data
Consisting of large cast iron boxes, 3 large ground helical gears and large conical bearings, thanks to the large quantity of special oil and very high precision machining we have eliminated the risks of vibrations, noise, high friction and oil overheating. Problems that have always afflicted all types of portals existing on the market. The reduction ratio of 1:1.20 allows you to install 37 or 38 inch wheels while keeping the odometer, abs and esp functions unchanged. The minimum rim diameter must be 18 inches. The dimensions obtained after installing our kit are exactly those of the original G500 4x4 2 with a lift of 150mm given by the portals to which is added the increase in height due to the increased diameter of the tyres.
