Description
Give your LC250 the race-proven advantage. The 74Weld NGA Portal Axle Kit raises your axles—not just the body—delivering true underbody clearance, a 1.22:1 hub reduction (22%), and an approx. 3.88" lift from the axle centerline. Run 35–37" tires with noticeably less strain on the driveline while preserving the LC250’s refined on-road manners, steering feel, and CV angles.
Unlike conventional lifts that push geometry out of spec, portals keep arms and tie rods flatter at ride height. That’s why Ultra4 and desert racers trust 74Weld: you gain clearance where it matters most—under diffs, arms, and steering—while multiplying torque at the hubs.
Why 74Weld portals on the LC250
-
Real ground-clearance: Raising the axle centerline protects vulnerable components from rocks, ledges, and ruts.
-
22% torque multiplication at the hub: Offsets the larger rolling diameter of 35–37" tires, often reducing the need to re-gear axles and easing drivetrain load.
-
Keep OEM ride quality: Flatter control-arm and tie-rod angles help maintain the Land Cruiser’s composed on-road behavior.
-
Race-bred construction: Billet 7075 knuckles with steel inserts and billet 6061 portal boxes—precision-machined for strength and longevity.
-
Brakes & ABS friendly: Dedicated front and rear rotors with factory ABS compatibility for confident, predictable braking.
-
Wider, more stable stance: +2.75" per side (≈ +5.5" overall) improves stability and scrub characteristics with stock suspension components.

Wheel & tire guidance
-
35–37" tires are commonly achievable with portals; exact fitment depends on wheel specs, alignment, bumpers, and trimming.
-
Confirm rotor/caliper clearance and choose offset/backspacing that accounts for the +2.75" per side increase. We can spec a proven wheel package for the LC250.

FAQs
Do I still need to re-gear?
Often no. The 22% hub reduction offsets the effective ratio change from larger tires, letting many owners run 35–37" without opening the diffs. Your load, terrain, and tire size ultimately decide.
How are portals different from a suspension lift?
Suspension lifts raise the chassis but keep axles at the same height, which can worsen CV/steering angles. Portals raise the axles, giving real clearance under diffs/arms while keeping geometry near stock.
Will ABS and traction systems still work?
Yes—the kit is factory ABS compatible. Verify system operation post-install; initialization/recalibration may be recommended.
