  • Continuing with the portal build! In this episode we take you through the entire 74weld portal install, A-Z, and then take it out for a test day.
    This is Part 2 of 2, so make sure to watch Part 1 if you missed it. And the way things are playing out, it seems like we might even have a Part 3 eventually so keep an eye out for that!
    This video is just an overview, but if you want the nitty gritty step-by-step process, keep an eye out for the write up on Trail4R.com

      Can’t you install portals on LT suspension too? Aren’t those two different variables (they are not mutually exclusive). 1) the steering knuckle 2) the suspension travel? You can have portals on stock suspension. You can have portals on long, travel suspension. It’s like saying having air-conditioning on a truck means you can’t have long travel.? wtf ?

    • @chasewyant1540
      @chasewyant1540 7 місяців тому +1

      @ahmadalanjary2020 1. Stearing is already heavy with LT. 2. Good luck finding a stearing rack that will hold up to LT and portals. 3. Cost. 20k in portals plus let's say 13k for good LT kit. Lol 33k. Could SAS with rear stear for less. 4. Portals are a fad and they will burn out just like they did in the sxs market. High maintenance with shitty performance.

      @@chasewyant1540right Right, with 20k I’d rather put that into LT suspension and other things … I’m just saying , the logic holds technically. Can have both things , they are independent of each other. you can have portals as well with a solid front axle (SAS like you were saying). Not sure about shitty performance, ultra 4 cars rock them , some awd trophy trucks , and UTVs …

Portals on solid axles fucking awesome, portals on long travel fucking awesome. Portals on stocks IFS ain't going no where... since I posted this comment 4 months ago the hype has already faded.

    Cool vid, and I'm all about pushing the envelope, but this is absurd! Lol. Clearance is great, but you should put on some 35" ATs. That much weight will absolutely butcher that powertrain and drivetrain long-term. Crazy build though.

    • @TrailCoMedia
      @TrailCoMedia 7 місяців тому +2

      Actually, the reduction box is taking the majority of the stress at each hub. Is there added stress on the drivetrain components? Yes. However, with portals, it's greatly reduced compared to something like Long Travel on 37" tires - with no reduction box.

      The factory caliper mounts about 15 degrees higher on the rotor than the 74W setup.

There is absolutely no difference in performance when rotating the calipers 15 degrees lower on the rotor.
