<p><strong>History:</strong></p>
<div id="attachment_12" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 269px"><a href="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/1312700501_29b399b038_o1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-12 " title="Portal-Tek Hompage 2007" src="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/1312700501_29b399b038_o1-259x300.jpg" alt="" width="259" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Portal-Tek Hompage 2007</p></div>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Portal-Tek began as a part sourcing company for Volvo portal axle components in 2006.  In 2007 Portal-Tek introduced the Gen II Volvo Disc Brake Adapter (VDBA) kit for Volvo C303-404 portal axles.  This kit allowed for the Volvo C303-404 portal axles to be fitted with aftermarket Wilwood discs and calipers.</p>
<div id="attachment_17" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 235px"><a href="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/volvo_gear_stack.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-17" title="Gen II Vovlo Disc Brake Adapter" src="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/volvo_gear_stack-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Gen II Vovlo Disc Brake Adapter</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Shortly after the launch of the Gen II VDBA kit Portal-Tek introduced to market the Gen III Fully Floating Portal Axle.  Portal-Tek used the &#8220;Gen&#8221; delineation to pay homage to the original generation of Volvo portal axles.  The Gen III proved to be a strong axle platform as it demonstrated excellent performance at the King of the Hammers race in 2008.</p>

<div id="attachment_26" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_03102.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-26" title="High clearance of the Gen III" src="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/IMG_03102-300x225.jpg" alt="Gen III Portal Axle" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">High clearance of the Gen III</p></div>
<p>In the fall of 2008 the Portal-Tek team put their collective heads together and conceptualized a new dropout third member design based on the 14 Bolt ring and pinion. This new product became known as the Super-14.  The Super-14 made its debut in Moab at the 2009 Easter Jeep Safari.</p>
<div id="attachment_30" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 599px"><a href="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/PortalTek_Super14_3x6001.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-30" title="Original Portal-Tek Super 14" src="http://portal-tek.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/PortalTek_Super14_3x6001.jpg" alt="" width="589" height="204" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Original Portal-Tek Super 14</p></div>
<p>Portal-Tek continued to sell axle product until the company ceased operations in the beginning of 2010.</p>
<p>As of 2011,Torq Axle has purchased the rights to all Portal-Tek axle products.</p>
