Installation notes

  • One 161158 kit converts all four wheel ends while retaining the original axle centers. Use the kit hardware and follow the front and rear assembly sequences.
  • The portal gears reverse wheel rotation. The instructions show reversing differential orientation to compensate; confirm both axles turn in the correct direction before driving.
  • Check steering, body and wheel clearance through full suspension travel after fitting the portal ends.
