High Lifter 6 Inch Portal Gear Lift 60% Dual Idler for Polaris Ranger 1000 (New Body Style) 2-Seater & Crew 2018–2020

Upgrade your work-ready machine with the High Lifter 6 Inch Portal Gear Lift 60% Dual Idler for Polaris Ranger 1000. Designed specifically for new body style 2-seat and Crew models, this heavy-duty Portal Gear Lift 60% Dual Idler for Polaris Ranger 1000 delivers maximum torque multiplication, increased ground clearance, and superior drivetrain protection.

The aggressive 60% gear reduction is ideal for riders running 40 inch tires or larger, restoring lost torque while dramatically reducing stress on belts, axles, differentials, driveshafts, and transmission components.

60% Gear Reduction with Dual Idler Strength

High Lifter enhanced the portal gearbox by integrating a second idler gear inside the housing. This dual idler portal system spreads load across twice as many gear teeth, doubling surface contact and cutting gear stress in half.

The result is smoother torque transfer, improved reliability, and longer gear life—especially important for heavier Crew models and work-focused Ranger builds.

The 60% gearing significantly improves engine braking performance, extending brake life and increasing control in steep terrain, towing applications, and deep mud.

Forged Aluminum Portal Gear Boxes

Unlike competitors using cast or billet housings, High Lifter uses forged aluminum portal gear boxes. Forging creates a stronger and tougher housing capable of handling the weight and torque demands of the Polaris Ranger 1000 platform.

Advanced Sealing & Heavy-Duty Construction

• High-density Kevlar fiber gaskets resistant to oil and coolant
• No additional sealant required
• Dual oil seals on spindle shaft for increased sealing area
• True triple-sealed input shaft with protective wiper seal
• Massive 5/16″ steel backing plates with bent flanges
• Welded gusset brackets for superior structural strength
• 13” precision ground stainless steel slotted rotors

Important Recommendation

High Lifter strongly recommends pairing this portal lift with a High Lifter Frame Stiffener Kit to reinforce your chassis and protect your investment when running oversized tires and aggressive gearing.
