Factors To Consider When Shopping For Kawasaki Ridge Portal Gear Lifts

Here's a breakdown of key factors to consider:

Lift Height

This is your first crucial decision. Do you frequently ride on casual trails or regularly tackle rough terrains? Your favorite riding terrain and its obstacles should guide you in choosing the right lift height for a portal gear lift. Popular choices range from 2" to 6" lifts, each offering a distinct increase in ground clearance and impacting your Ridge's handling and center of gravity. Consider your riding style and intended use to find the perfect balance between capability and comfort.

Tire Compatibility

Remember, bigger lifts demand bigger tires! Ensure your chosen lift accommodates your desired tire size, considering factors like rim diameter and overall width. Not only will this impact clearance further, but it will also affect handling and performance. Consult the lift manufacturer's specifications and compatibility charts to ensure a perfect match.

Material and Construction

Durability is paramount when venturing off the beaten path. Opt for lifts crafted from high-strength steel or aluminum, ensuring they can withstand the rigors of off-road adventures. Aluminum is lightweight and cost-effective but might not be as robust for the most demanding terrains. Billet aluminum, conversely, is stronger and lighter than cast aluminum, ideal for serious off-road enthusiasts willing to pay a premium. Steel is arguably the most durable option, offering the highest strength for extreme conditions and the heaviest. Steel portal gear lifts tend to be the most expensive. Also, consider additional features like powder coating or zinc plating for enhanced corrosion resistance. 

Brand 

When it comes to performance and safety, trust matters. Choose a reputable brand known for its quality products and commitment to rigorous testing. Research online reviews, forums, and expert recommendations to gain insights into different brands and their performance in real-world scenarios. Thankfully, we offer only the best products from reputable brands.

Installation

Lifting your Ridge requires expertise and proper tools. Assess your comfort level with DIY installations, or consider professional costs when budgeting. Ensure that the gear kit offers detailed instructions, support resources, and even video tutorials to guide you through the process.

Additional Features

Some lifts have bells and whistles like pre-installed sway bar relocation brackets, driveline components, or differential drops. Consider these add-ons if they align with your specific needs and budget to save time and effort during installation.
