RC ADVENTURES - Portal Axles: What Are They?! Install on my Trail Finder 2 RC4WD

Overview & Install of the RC4WD PORTAL FRONT AXLES for my YOTA.
I have had these for about 2 months & finally I have had the time to get them installed. I figured I would cover what portal axles are, and what their uses are - for our new viewers and for folks that are interested in how they work. Are they beneficial to you?! Very possible. By installing these portal axles, I am able to effectively lift the differential housing away from the low clearance hang-up issues - and at the same time I can reduce the amount of power needed to turn larger tires. By transferring the load of each axle to Dual Gears per side.. the work is cut in half! Easier on my ESC, Easier on my motor, and easier to turn these tires when there is sticky mud everywhere. Use lots of grease!
