Why Portal Chooses Bilstein
Portal Offroad Tours is committed to creating premium vehicles that feel stable, comfortable and composed while navigating Moab's sandstone trails. Suspension is one of the most important parts of that experience.
Bilstein gives us a strong foundation for building vehicles that can confidently handle rough terrain while helping reduce the harshness, movement and fatigue guests may associate with a typical off-road ride.
Our equipment choices are made around one question: will this create a better experience for our guests?
What Guests Experience
These benefits work together to create a more refined and enjoyable ride without taking away from the excitement of the trail.
01
Thoughtful suspension tuning helps absorb repeated trail impacts and smooth the ride for passengers.
02
A composed vehicle responds more predictably as the trail changes from sandstone climbs to uneven ledges and rolling terrain.
03
Stable and predictable movement helps guests relax and enjoy the adventure, scenery and capability of the vehicle.
04
Reducing unnecessary bouncing and body movement can make a long trail day feel more comfortable from start to finish.

Featured Suspension
The B8 8100 Adjustable Series is being incorporated into Portal's vehicle development to create a suspension package suited to the demands of guided off-road touring.
For Portal, adjustability provides an opportunity to refine the vehicle around its actual use, including vehicle weight, passenger load, trail conditions and the type of ride experience we want to provide.
Adjustable Setup
Allows the vehicle configuration to be refined for its specific use.
Trail Control
Supports stable, predictable movement across changing terrain.
Passenger Focus
Selected with comfort and overall ride quality in mind.
Premium Build

Purpose-Built Suspension
Selected to support Portal's premium touring experience.
Built for Moab
Moab presents a combination of sandstone climbs, uneven ledges, rolling slickrock, off-camber sections and repeated low-speed suspension movement.
Portal operates in these conditions regularly, giving us the opportunity to evaluate equipment in the same environment our guests will experience.

The Portal Difference
It is about what the guest feels from the moment the vehicle leaves the pavement.
01
Every major upgrade is evaluated for capability, durability, comfort, safety and its value to the guest experience.
02
Our goal is not to apply one generic build formula. Each vehicle is developed around its size, weight, passenger access and intended trail use.
03
Portal's vehicles operate in the same environment where our guests experience them, allowing us to continually evaluate and improve the setup.
04
Our fleet is never treated as finished. We continue refining equipment and vehicle design as better solutions become available.
