    Any chance you know (or anyone) the difference in the inner pivot location for the tie rod compared to the Tacoma rack? Im assuming the rack is longer so the pivots would be pushed further towards the wheels. Unless that's corrected by like Solo for example

    That is corrected. You will lose some turning radius. But overall width is corrected on them.

    Stellarbuilt also had studs shear on their 74weld portals in the donut rubicon video on YouTube.

    I'm my opinion, portals are stupid unless the entire suspension is designed and built around them. If they are just bolted on they cause way too many other issues and don't really make your truck wheel any better than if you put $20k into other mods instead. Actually probably worse.

    I wanted to build my center mount 4wd setup around front portals with no rear portals, like the AWD trophy trucks, but they were too expensive.
