With SuperATV’s 8” GDP Portal Gear Lift installed, you can take your side-by-side to another level. That huge increase in ground clearance paired with its torque-boosting 45% or 60% gear reduction gives you the ability to clear bigger rocks and power through thicker mud. With an 8” GDP Portal Kit, nothing’s gonna stop you.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eGDP—the Most Trusted Name in Portals\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nSo how many people let GDP transform their ride? More people than any other portal system. There are thousands riding on portals every weekend tearing up mud parks and bombing down trails. With total ride hours numbering in the hundreds of thousands, you know that GDP is the must mud-proven portal kit you can get.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect for Mud\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nDid we mention 8” portals are great for muddin'? Getting lifted means you have room for big mud tires and your General can cruise over deep mud instead of plowing right through. The 45% or massive 60% gear reduction means you get tons of torque back to turn those tires so you’ll have no issue pushing through the thickest peanut butter mud.\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eA Gear Reduction That Protects Your Drivetrain\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGDP puts the gear reduction right in the portal hub, which means it comes after your drivetrain. That makes this gear reduction reduce the stress on your axles, differential, prop shaft, and transmission.

These are the most popular bolt patterns so no matter what side-by-side wheels you get your hands on, they’ll work on these hubs.

Micro Polishing is a process that gently smooths out any imperfections in the surface of the metal during a two-stage, non-abrasive, burnishing process that produces a chrome-like finish. The result is unbelievably smooth gears that have almost zero friction or resistance. This means better oil retention and a longer lifetime than other gears. They will stay cool and quiet, while giving you a little more power to the ground.  \r\n\u003cbr \/\u003e\r\n\u003cbr \/\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eBillet Housings\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cbr \/\u003e\r\nChoose billet or cast aluminum housings to finish your portals.
