Description



What does the 45% Dual Idler Gear Lift offer?
  • High Lifter added a second idler gear to the portal gear box.
  • Dual idler gears spread the load across twice as many teeth, reducing stress by half.
  • You get stronger, more reliable torque transfer - perfect for running 40" tires or larger.
  • Save your parts - this setup helps prevent burning belts, breaking axles, damaging differentials, drive shafts, and snorkel gears.
  • 45% gear reduction also improves engine braking and helps extend brake life.
  • A lower gear ratio gives you better power and stronger performance for big tires - not just speed.

    Why is High Lifter’s 6" kit better than competitors?

    Forged Gear Boxes:
  • Stronger than cast or billet aluminum (competitors only use cast or billet).
  • Forging makes the portal boxes tougher and longer-lasting.

    Gear Box Venting:
  • Optional venting plug for future vent kits.
  • Vent kits help cool the box, reducing gasket and seal wear.

    Gasket Material:
  • High-density Kevlar fiber gaskets – no extra sealant needed.
  • Resistant to creep, oil, and coolant for longer life.

    Seals:
  • Dual oil seals on the spindle shaft - 100% more sealing.
  • Triple seal setup on the input shaft for extra protection against water and oil leaks.

    Backing Plate:
  • Made from 5/16" thick steel with bent flanges and welded gussets.
  • Super strong and works with control arms built to factory hub specs.

    13" Rotors:
  • Precision ground stainless steel for better braking.
  • Slotted design for cooling and heat dissipation.
  • Access holes make assembly and maintenance easier.

    Gear Profile:
  • Alloy steel heat treated for maximum strength.
  • CNC machined and lapped for perfect fitment and quieter performance.
