Jerry's CT is so cool.
Fun fact: He was the very first customer of ours to torture test the "Flight Grade" Front Upper Control Arms harder than we did - and he took that name very literally.
We're happy to report that no Cybertrucks or FUCAs were harmed.
You will have TCS and VSC intervention/warnings if you have different overall diameters between the front and rear tires. It's totally fine to run staggered tire widths, wheel widths and even wheel diameters, but you need to keep the OD the same so the truck doesn't see different wheel speeds.
We thought we had tested the Cybertruck to its limit, but our man Jerry (@cyberoffroad_ on IG) took it upon himself to be the unofficial test-pilot for the "Flight Grade" name. In case anyone was wondering about the quality of these FUCAs, Jerry has put them through more torture testing than...
Happy to report that our next batch is on the machine as we speak, and will be going into anodizing by next week. Once that's done, we're shipping them all out!
We appreciate your enthusiasm very much! I hope you and the other customers who ordered them will be as happy as the existing users...
Just wanted to return here and let anyone who was on the fence know that our first batch of customer Cybertruck FUCAs is now on its way to the customers that ordered during the pre-sale, so if you are in here, thank you for your support! We can't wait to see these hitting jumps or rock crawling...
I'm glad you mentioned Camburg.
And first of all - thanks for supporting MPP and running out products!
You'll notice a few things on an arm like Camburg's - first of all, this part needs to be removed from the car to adjust camber. That's a major waste of time, and any alignment shop would...
We haven't jumped the truck with them in yet, but all the other testing we could muster has been done.
This is a tried and tested design, once the FUCA bolts are tightened to spec, you don't need to worry about them.
However, for performance vehicles that are thrashed, we always recommend...
This post needs more fear mongering!
Here are some relevant facts:
We've tested the threads on our Model 3 FUCAs and the high grade bolts we use broke first every time as long as our minimum required thread depth is respected.
The bolts don't ever back off if torqued properly - we have...
This is an AWD yes, if you'd like, please post photos so that we can see if the Beast is different - I believe they are the same!
There are also dowels between the balljoint, shims and inner arm that carry all of the shear load - the bolts only provide the clamping.
In all of our other Tesla...
We remember when this thread first came up, and we were in the process of doing some downright sketchy things in our Cybertruck (See photo). We identified the OEM FUCA as an obvious weak point with the 7000 lb truck, and after quite a bit of research and development time....
We may have the...
Back when we took our Cybertruck for a torture-test jumping run at the farm - yes, that video from last year - we finally managed to break something after enough jumps with a 7000 lb truck. Eventually, a factory stamped steel front upper control arm bent. Frankly, it was a matter of time. In...
If you have the links fully spaced with shims, which is the lowest ride height setting, your suspension travel is definitely quite limited. You will have about an inch of travel before bump stops - but it will look really cool :cool:
Just an update:
The first kits went out the door today!
We're really excited about these, and we've listed them as "IN STOCK" now that we have a fully revised kit ready for use.
Hey everyone!
We're excited to announce the official launch of the Mountain Pass Performance Triple L Ride Height Adjustment Kits for the Tesla Cybertruck.
We have had these on and off our personal Cybertruck in countless configurations without any issues, even after taking it out in a blizzard...
For anyone who has been waiting patiently, we have exciting news. Not only did our Rivian R1T/R1S forged wheels arrive, but so did our Cybertruck Mega Terra forged wheels! These are probably the thing we are asked about most by CT owners, and they're now IN STOCK :cool:
We're looking into this. I don't want to overpromise and say we are definitely going to provide an aftermarket solution for the FLCA bushings, but it is a possibility. I'll be sure to keep you all updated if we produce it!
Like Scott said above, there's a chance the Cybertruck had a less than stellar alignment when it left the factory.
I would take a look at the bushings in the front lower arms as well. During some of our testing we have found them to be pretty soft - especially considering the truck's size and...
I would post a photo of the pickup truck from Kill Bill but it is incredibly offensive ?
That being said, a spoiler that replaces the plastic trim on top of the tailgate could look interesting.
That is odd tire wear for sure. I have only seen that sort of wear on hard compound eco-tires that were thrashed on the racetrack. They start losing little chunks instead of just wearing down.
