PORTAL AXLES
Portal axles provide more ground clearance without needing bigger tires. On the GEN8, more of the gear reduction happens in the portal axles, which means less torque twist in the body than with a traditional axle. The portal axles include a metal gear cover, metal wheel hex, feature a CNC machine spool and provide 54.5mm of ground clearance.
