do you find them noisy @110klm? yours are 1.22:1 correct? Marks 1.4:1 ratio would definitely be noisier, id assume 1.4:1 more suited to offroad only rigs? Dynatrac have Portals they are 1.5:1 and they don't recommend them for Highway use at all!

Yes, my portal ratio is 1.22:1. No, they are not noisy-despite being straight cut gears. 1.4:1 was originally designed for comp. rigs. Current production ratio is 1:16:1 which equates exactly to original gearing on original tyres, but allowing for 35s on portals.
good to know on the 1.16:1 looks like they have been making continual advancements , although not really nescesary with the Allison 6Spd O/Drive 0.61 Ratio on the Box i will be using, (i may need to change to a higher numerical diff ratio?). Anyway I'm seeing Marks4x4 tomorrow to check out 3 rigs he has there, 1 patrol has portals, one patrol has portals and LS2 V8, another has the Duramax V8 with Allison 6Spd on Std Axels. I'm seriously considering the Duramax/Allison for my build, hopefully getting a test drive:)
Haven't been on here for a while.............again. Truck as it stands at the moment. Brushbars fabbed and fitted.ARB Intensity spotties fitted. Except I only paid $150 ea. +freight from China where they made!!

Welcome Back
Mean looking Truck
Mate that is a great looking truck.
Looking good Pat, how do you like the tyres mate?
Mate, I love them. I took 35" Claws off to fit these and they are superior. Their grip on wet bitumen is amazing, in snow and mud just sensational. In sand-yes well keep your foot out of it lol. Very noisy but if that bothers you buy an SUV or something.Quote:
