Mopar works with a lot of high performance companies like AEV and Dynatrac. Portals were built by Dynatrac (http://www.dynatrac.com/products/axles/portals.html) for Mopar. They are available as a Mopar Performance part from Jeep. Part number for JK are P5155670 and P5155671 from Jeep if anybody wants them. Probably around USD10k each though. Here is another JK with them:
