High Lifter's Recommended Tire and Portal Size for Warranty

Gear Ratio Suggestion

Speedometer Readings

Notes:

• 30% Single Idler is only recommended for 2-seater and 3-seater non-turbo units.
• Dual Idler portals are recommended for all Turbo, Crew, and 4-Seater models.
• Example: A 33" tire with a 30% gear reduction displays 40 MPH; actual speed is 31 MPH.

How does the 60% gear reduction affect my Can-Am Defender's performance?

The 60% reduction provides massive low-end torque, dramatically improving performance in extreme terrain, while significantly reducing top speed for ultimate crawling power.

What's the advantage of the clocked backing plate design?

The clocked backing plate allows for bigger tire fitment and increased fender clearance, enabling you to run larger tires without interference issues.

Can I install this portal lift myself?

While possible for highly experienced mechanics, we strongly recommend professional installation due to the system's complexity and to ensure optimal performance and safety.

What's the minimum wheel size I need for this portal lift?

The minimum wheel size is 22", but we recommend using 24" wheels for optimal performance and clearance with the 8" portal lift.

Do I need to replace my factory brake lines with this kit?

No, the kit includes brake line extensions, saving you time and hassle during installation while maintaining proper brake performance.
