Haha! "don't act like you're not impressed". Love it. Great install video.
Midwest ATV 👊👊👊
Very nice clean work!!!
Killer vid as usual. You don't need any damn new camera, microphone or crap like that. Great job👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Just made my day man!! Thank you!
Awesome video
Thank you Branden!
Do the 2019 rangers brakes need adapter plate .. my kit never came with any
Time for a camera upgrade!
Are brakes just not going to work as well because of added weight of portals and wheels and tires
Great video! Thinking of doing this as well. Own a xp1000 3 seater. Will the shorter wheelbase make the machine too top heavy? Also what is the outer diameter of the width? Have a 6' wide trailer. Would it still fit with this exact configuration of portals and tires?
Eric Lohmeyer overall width is 78”-80” depending on tire. Not at all it actually makes them more stable because you gain 8ish inches in width..
Thanks for the reply! Going to need a new trailer as well!
Eric Lohmeyer very welcome! Keep us posted!
if the unit portal has a seal, you may want to ask the manufacturer what the Torque spec is instead of just cranking them down with an impact gun
I have a commander max with 28” tires and want to upgrade to 33” to run the rubicon.
I’m thinking of doing a 4” portal lift with 15% reduction to keep my top speed close to stock.
Would that be enough reduction to still kick the rear loose when trail riding?
I might throw a evo clutch kit and tuner in at the same time.
So yes in that instance the 15% would be best. I would only go 30% if you go a bigger tire than that. We actually never mess with clutching and only run oem clutching in our portal rigs
I have a 2019 ranger 1000xp northstar I want to get it on 34 35 inch tiers I don't wheel to much just hunting rig with some rock trails here and there what do you recommend?
For your application it sounds like just running a 3” bracket lift should be all you need from satv. Maybe a set of wheel spacers if you have any rubbing issues.
i have ranger crew 900 with arched a arms and 2" bracket lift running 30" tires. If I purchase 4 inch portals, do I have to buy anything else like axles, etc. ?? or can I keep stock axles,tierods, etc
You can keep the stock axles and tie rods but highly recommend you upgrade the tie rods
@ 4:30 how tight are you torqueing the axle bolt? then it turns the trans if in neutral... How do you hold the axle in place to tighten.... superatv didn't give torque specs for all the bolts
Hey man! I am not sure the exact torque but we use an impact wrench and make sure it is good and tight with a healthy dose of loctite. I always have the torque wrench in one hand while holding the axle with the other and it tightens right up with the trans in gear. Hope that helps!
I have recently added SATV 3" bracket lift, 1 1/2" arched forward arms, 4" SxS gear portals, heavy duty tie rods to my 2017 ranger Xp 1000 EPS hunter addition with 34" tires. I was assured by the companies I bought the parts from ($6000) and they told me that everything would work just fine and I would love my new machine and it will be exactly what I explained to them I needed and wanted !!!!...............BULLSHIT!
My tires are rubbing at the bottom corner of the front of my cab!!! what do I need to do to fix this? Help please
My tires are rubbing at the front bottom corners of my cab!! It's like the buggy needs more lift and /or more forward arms???
Because of your how to video I just ordered the 6" portals and 6" lift. Now I need to know where the wheels and tires come from! Any help greatly appreciated ty.
That is awesome Eric! You will love your portals! What kind of riding do you do and what size you thinking?
Sporting clays. Want the same tire and wheels that are on the machine of this video. Also told Super ATV you gave them several thumbs up and 5 fire emojis.
35" Toyo AT2's and 18" MSA wheels is what is on this machine in the video! That is awesome, thank you!
Thanks so much. Will post pics when done!
Very welcome, and I look forward to seeing them!
Any reason you don't just use the wheel itself to pull the wheel studs through instead of stacking nuts and washers?
Have had issues with causing some slight damage to wheels doing it that way
hey bud I've came across your channel and dann y'all have some sweet rigs haha I have a RZR 900s I'm not sire if I wanna do a super atv lift or long travel kit
Randomredneck22 this is just my opinion so take it at that lol. I am not a fan of bracket or suspension lifts on Rzr's. They change the factory geometry and make the shocks way to stiff. Long travel kits are cool but I do not think they are worth the cost. Plus you have to use different shocks and axles in most cases. If I were you I would highly recommend portal gear lifts. But it all comes down to what style riding you do mostly! Hope that helps man!
SlikRok Productions thanks man that does help! I do alot of trial rides (a little rock crawling) but mostly just exploring around. what are your thoughts on just a 3 inch lift.
Anytime man! I think you would loose a little bit of the quality of the ride because it will stiffen up your shocks. So you just need to decide if clearance is worth giving up a little comfort!
SlikRok Productions yeah man I think ill stick with the stock setup maybe ill just add some high clearance a-arms
I think that is a good plan and maybe some bigger tires.
Really enjoying your videos! I have a question, i bought a Polaris general 4 looking at portals and wondering your thoughts on the 4 or 6 inch portals? Do you think the 6 inch will make it to tippy on the rocks? Thanks!
Mark Sampson thank you mark! So the ranger in this video has the six inch portals and we took it to Moab and ran poison spider, hells Revenge and even hells gate. Only issue with the 6” portals is they are a 45% gear reduction and really takes away your top speed. I would recommend the 4” portals and possibly the satv 2-3 inch bracket lift.
Thanks so much for the advice! Would like to see you guys do a general build!
Thank you for your support! Stay tuned, we are wanting to do one as well!
these portal
kits look awesome and sounds like they are quite the beefed up part but are they really worth what you pay?? trying to get a set of 4" portals run around $3900 before taxes here
Bill Williamson where you from Bill? I won't own another machine without them. Hard to pay a 1,000 more than what they cost though.
SlikRok Productions northwestern Ontario, Canada.. exchange rate is through the roof and our outrageous taxes don't help much as well, but i believe in "you get what you pay for" so if i need to spend some extra money for damn good quality then so be it, compared to the cost of a lift kit and tires, i was kind of in shock when i saw the prices
Bill Williamson portal gear lifts are so much more than just a lift kit. The allow you to run bigger tire and eliminate the stress throughout your drive train. The make you machine wider which will allow you to articulate more.
Can you please provide a link to the Moab video?

Could you tell me where to find the 2 inch forward a arms that you spoke of? What there actual name is?
6669bj are you referring to the a arms used on this specific ranger in this video?
At the end of the video you said you were going to put a 2" forward offset on the ranger. I was hoping to find them just hearing forward offset that to me sounds like could put bigger tires.
6669bj yes we went with Zbroz Racing forward offset a arms on the ranger in this video!
6 inch portals snap a arms like twigs
Can you just put the portals and brake rotor on stock lift
Yes you can, you remove your oem hubs no bolt on the portals.
SlikRok Productions thanks I just want a simple lift and just the portals seem to be enough while also adding a bit more strength
Justin Smith yes portals are the way to go!
how long does the install take?
Chris Simmons it is a pretty extensive installation and the first set we did took about 8 hours but after we have done 10+ sets we have it down to 2 hours.
Portal gear lift vs long travel? What do you prefer
Portals and this is why, with long travel all you gain is width, what you loose is factory shock angles and not properly articulating suspension. With portals you keep your factory shock angles so the shock will function properly, you get 9 inches in width, 30% gear reduction so you can run bigger tires without the added stress on your drivetrain and you gain 4" in clearance.
SlikRok Productions so I'm going to order this right soon I have the 2017 sportsman 1000 highlifter it comes with 25% gear reduction already (max 80kmh ) high range great in the mud I'm breaking stock axles all the time in the front can I keep stock when installing this kit? Also the portal lift is a 30% gear reduction will I be the slowest unit out there lol :)))
So I can't speak about portals on a sportsman 1000, because we only run them on UTV's. But since we went to portals we haven't broke one stock axle. The gear reduction can be offset with running bigger tires that way you don't loose your top end, but to do that you need to run a 34"-36" tire.
Where you guys located
Northern Utah
So u guys put 3 inch bracket lift and 6 inch portal lift on this car?
At the time yes and we learned our lesson quick, no bracket lifts!
@@SlikRokProductions appreciate all the good info! Learned lots from you all!! Keep doing what you do!!
So I added heavy duty, a arms, heavy duty, ball joints, heavy duty, tire rods axles all the way around do the 4 inch portal gear lift and 34 inch super atv cannot get my machine to stop shaking about 30 mph. Any suggestions?
@@SlikRokProductions I just did my Ranger up with 4” portal 15%, a arms,axles,ball joints,tie rods, 34 SATV warriors and on over 30 mph is during low shakes like crazy
@@austinhamby8699 You running beadlocks or regular wheels? Did you set your toe as close to zero as possible?
Good video but bad volume on your mic or system to pick up your voice.
Probably better to have a 1/16" toe in.
On Nov 23 I ordered a front differential for my 2016 Ranger. The one they sent me was not even close to being the correct one. I sent it right back not installed and only unboxed for 5 min after I took pictures of both the new and my old dif side by side to show the difference. Today the scumbags tell me they are going to charge me a 25% restocking fee for their mistake. Keep in mind I paid $200 for 2ed day shipping to me and another $58.23 to ship it back to them.
The scumbag also said the product was damaged!!!!! I personally removed the dif from the box and only took pictures to show the difference and back into the box within 5 min.
Costs: $1,100 dif
$258.23 shipping
$1,358.23 total
They offered $825
I will NEVER deal with Super ATV again!!!
Please get a remote microphone !
Thank you Greg, that is the next thing on our list! Let us know if you have any questions that you couldn't hear in the video.
How about starting and finishing one wheel and move to the next, instead of jumping all around from side to side, front to back. Video is kinda confusing to follow.
I can't hear shit. the volume is so low I have to strain to hear
That looks do fuckin stupid waste of money all that for car tires
