I haven't seen or heard a price yet but I can only imagine this is NOT cheap

 

[Beewdawg]

It may not be cheap (cost wise) but I'm sure the price will come down eventually and it looks like they're headed in the right direction mechanically at least for some folks.

$25,197

Many years ago I went four wheeling with a guy who had a Land Cruiser on Volvo portal axles. It was pretty much bulletproof on every trail I seen it on. The guy was into old military vehicles and said he had the axles laying around so he put them on his 90's land cruiser

Wow.

That is crazy!!!

Don't know how the math works. I'm running 4.88s so what final gearing will I get with these?

 

[dcmdon]

You get any gearing you want. It doesn't change the differential.

One thing about this manufacturer linked to above.

the fact that they have only a cad drawing on their website tells me that this should be approached with some serious caution.

yeah i was expecting tens of thausands and i wasnt wrong,super dope product but damn that is a big pricetag but its a super awesome product to be honest, its full float bigger upgraded wilwood brakes more clearance better parts, better ingredients better pizza.......papa johns

Kickass product and as they said i feel like a ductile iron option would be amazing,cheaper mostlikely stronger ofcourse especially for the front but even then the 6061 aluminum would be plenty strong but once you have 40s diesel power,hydro assist it will make you think about it but hey thats just my take but again the design looks super super beefy, hell makes you think about the C Knuckles on the actual housing

This is awesome. I’m gonna start saving LOL

Portal are old news, there's a reason or two that all the rich youtube wheelers aren't using them on the DD wknd party rigs.

 

[azmojave]

Cheaper than one of these

I remember now but kinda forgot about it. The new video got me all excited again, but I’m sure it’ll pass. My stock Mojave is fun the way it is!

I'm still a newb, so I probably should have done a search prior to posting, the video just got me excited.
