With a built-in gear reduction and 6 inches of lift, you get more torque, improved ground clearance, and the ability to run bigger tires without overloading your machine. Pick between a 15% or 30% gear reduction to match your riding style, and for extra durability, swap the cast housing for our billet aluminum option. Plus, you can upgrade to our Dual Idlers for maximum strength and performance.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Is a Dual Idler?\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nIt’s all about the details with our dual idler gear portals. Two idler gears mean the load is spread out, giving you a stronger setup—but only if they mesh perfectly. That’s why we rely on precision CNC grinding and 9310 steel to make sure every gear is just right.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned to Match Your Riding Style\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGDP Portal Gear Lifts are built to handle every kind of riding.
