Ill use the reply from Tibus (see Below). It makes since that in 20 years things have greatly evolved! In fact when I watch what Elon Musk is doing I greatly admire and follow the approach of "fail Forward" "Robert Kranz aka "Oilworker" oe "Oily" was the first to mount the prototypes...

Thanks for clarification. The design from Tibus is same as Bronco 6 bolt pattern. The stock wheels will mount up and be ready for bigger tire without need for additional offset. We are going to be carrying our own private labeled CTS capable wheel as well. Coming soon. these will have a positive...

I would love more details. What year? Specifics of problems? I have searched and searched with no avail. I truly want to know so that I can answer what is different then from now. I will say these have evolved a lot and the current competition is still working off from old versions and will...

Very good questions. Once we actually see on the road with 74 weld we will see. Yes speculation based on Knowledge and education of what happens with straight cut gears. There is a reason all modern transmissions use Helical gears and not straight cut. I have never sated any claims about 74. If...

Did you miss me? :)

Work yes. But no doubt there are issues to still answer. They are tried and tested in Racing but the average Bronco owner wants increased capabilities while maintaining the daily driver. I believe over time as the others evolve and catch up with Tibus they will continue to adopt designs that...

The drive shafts are full float and the vehicle's load is on the large wheel bearings with the flanges and not on the lower shaft. The gears are guided so well that there are no problems with mesh. For 20 years Tibus has equipped more than 500 vehicles with portal axles, which together have...

Absolutely but will have a few other problems to still address. Here are some examples to help explain. https://broncbustertx.com/blogs/bronc-blog/comparing-tibus-top-us-axle-portals-explained

Awesome question! 1st off as the North American distributor for all things Portals we will oversee the training of new installers. With that they will come with a 3 year warranty. As far as service depending on the issue we will have parts on hand to be able to take care of whatever part we...

I am glad to hear they are testing. There is no doubt that as they test they will work out the bugs and eventually get to market. The fact is they make great race portals but still have a ways to go to catch up on the daily driver experience.

Well Im sorry to hear that. What information were we lacking Ill be glad to fill in the blanks.

Definitely agree! Im sorry could you please give more details on why you call their reputation of being "Crap"? 1st off anytime you have innovators like Tibus designing and doing something that has never been done before that comes with some hiccups along the way. Tibus was the first to...

Reminder we're live right now if you want to chime in on the IFS vs Solid Axle talk!

Yes but a big difference between off road racing and daily driver. Read the Blog post as that is the information drawing the differences you talk about. Tibus has 20 years experience everyone else is just entering the market when it comes to on road and off road capabilities for sure.

There will be this will take different components and we are in developement on this.

Truth :)

I couldn't agree more. This is what makes the discussion fun. Options are important. What is important to one might not be to the other. Education is the other key. I believe the more we learn about all options the better choice we will make when spending our hard earned money.

Well yes and no. There is a reason you cant buy these yet. The fact is they are still trying to figure out how to make the Bronco electronics happy. Other issues Im sure include the inherent problems with their design on a street vehicle. This design will wine like crazy. No doubt they will...

Absolutely Dana 60 is a greta option. In fact we are a warehouse distributor for Dana and we sell upgrades for Bronco on a daily basis. The question definitely isn't weather or not Portals are better than a D60. The question is what is the best way to gear, add suspension, and maintain ride...
