Take your Can-Am Defender HD9 from capable to unstoppable with SuperATV's 8 GDP Portals. Designed for riders who demand more, these portals add 8 inches of lift and a precision-engineered gear reduction that increases torque and performance. Enjoy higher ground clearance and the ability to mount larger tires for tackling tougher terrain. Choose between 45%, 60%, or 70% gear reductions, along with billet or cast housing options, to build your ideal setup.
What Is a Dual Idler?
Perfection takes time. By placing a second idler gear in the portal box, the load gets spread over twice as much surface area for more reliable torque transfer and the strongest gear set you can get. Two idler gears don't do a thing if they're not mated perfectly, though. Didn't think dual idlers mattered? With GDPs quality and experience, they finally do.
Made for All Riding Styles
SuperATV Defender HD9 8 GDP Portals are designed with flexibility in mind, letting you choose the performance that fits your riding style. Go with a 45%, 60%, or 70% gear reduction to get the right mix of torque and speed for your setup. No matter which you choose, you'll gain the muscle needed for rock crawling, the capability to handle oversized tires, and the precision to navigate deep, muddy terrain without struggle.
Protects Your Drivetrain
GDP Portals for your Defender HD9 are engineered to move the gear reduction out to the wheel hub, taking pressure off your machines core components. By reducing stress on the axles, prop shaft, differential, and transmission, you're setting your rig up for improved longevity. It's a simple upgrade that can help prevent major repair costs later.
Built Tough
Upgrades should be as tough as your machine, and SuperATV's GDP Portals for the Defender HD9 don't disappoint. Choose between cast or billet aluminum housings for the durability you need.
- SuperATV housings are reinforced for gear retention and optimized for oil flow
- Advanced steel alloy backing plates are stronger than chromoly
Advanced Gaskets, Seals, and Bearings
SuperATV portals use:
- Advanced gaskets and O-rings with excellent oil resistance and low deterioration rates
- A sealed input gear and double-lipped output seal
- 100% sealing coverage throughout so you can forget about oil leaks
- Double-angular contact output bearings to prevent premature wear
- Roller idler and drive bearings to maintain perfect gear meshing
Frame Stiffener Required
SuperATV's Frame Stiffener helps you stay ahead of that stress by adding the support your machine needs. It's engineered to prevent deformation and keep your ride tough enough for aggressive use.
