The Polaris Xpedition rides better on 33-inch tires, but stock gearing and clearance hold it back—SuperATV's 4" GDP Portal Gear Lift fixes both at once. This drivetrain upgrade drops your hubs to deliver a true 4-inch lift while adding a built-in 15% or 30% gear reduction, giving your Xpedition the ground clearance, torque, and tire room overlanders need without changing OEM suspension angles.
Portals put the gear reduction at the very end of the driveline, so your axles, differential, prop shafts, and transmission all work less and last longer. Choose cast or billet 6061 aluminum housings and single or dual idler gears to match how hard you ride.

FAQ
How much lift does the 4" GDP Portal Gear Lift give my Xpedition?
It provides a true 4-inch lift by lowering the hubs at each corner, adding ground clearance while keeping your OEM suspension angles intact.
Should I choose the 15% or 30% gear reduction?
Pick 15% if you want to keep a higher top speed with plenty of added power, and 30% if you run bigger tires or heavy loads and want maximum torque. SuperATV's portal gear reduction calculator can help you decide.
What size tires will fit with this portal lift?
You can run up to 33-inch tires on stock suspension. Larger sizes may work with minor trimming or a small amount of rub.
What is the difference between single and dual idler gears?
Dual idler gears spread the load across two precision-matched gears instead of one, adding strength for hard, heavy use. Single idler is a strong, more economical choice for most riders.
Do I need a frame stiffener?
SuperATV strongly recommends adding a frame stiffener with portals. Rough riding and added weight can stress your frame, and a stiffener adds the support needed for hard rides.
Will portals reduce wear on my drivetrain?
Yes. Because the gear reduction sits at the end of the driveline, your axles, differential, prop shafts, and transmission all work less, which helps them last longer.
