Tesla sliders are made with .063 steel, we ran them up against one (only 1) rock on the Rubicon and they pressed in 4" deep 24" long. They are close to the door as well, so when you pivot on a rock, the door will get damaged.
The underbody is better than stock, but I also saw a huge...
I'll throw my hat in the ring... both of our options have the same profile and function similarly..
The aluminum sliders have replaceable wear pads with slide across the rocks vs getting caught on them and being drug. They are made with .250" aluminum plate and .287 plastic wear pads. These...
They sure do love throwing the Cybertruck under the bus! The CT is a great offroad vehicle in 95% of trails, the Rubicon is a very challenging trail which the CT did 98% by itself and used its winch to get through the remaining 2%. Yes, we had damage, we also saw 5 other rigs pulled off the...
Sorry, we discontinued them because there is not enough interest to keep selling them... We don't make what people don't buy. I'll add them to the site and sign up for notification, if we get enough guys we'll make another batch.
Check out our Xpedition Offroad Rubicon Bumper with optional winch bar.
We have another bracket that will work with the OEM bumper coming soon to utilize the same winch bar.
With a traditional R&P steering rack, driver can tell when the wheel is on the side of something, vs the drive by wire, the rack gives ist 100% I'm guessing all the time with no driver feedback. That said Tie rods are common failure point on the Rubicon, so either way would have happened...
That is correct, they are fuses. The OEM snap, and are hard to order from Tesla, our Heavy Duty versions bend and are available every day of the week. We suggest putting one in your spares kit if you plan to offroad for just in case.
We never blocked any part of the trail, we puled to the side to repair. We also passed 5 other broken rigs on the trail, they were also to the side.
I think if we blocked the trail, so me rigs would literally drive over the Cybertruck. It wouldn't surprise me, and if you block the trail you...
We went through 4x of our Heavy-Duty ties rods, stock ones would have been many more!
Our goal was to be the First Stock EV Truck, and Cybertruck, through the Rubicon. We achieved the goal, but it was a battle for sure! Cybertruck is a GREAT offroad truck, the Rubicon is just better at...
Only the Rivian SUV made it through, though no proof has been provided, the 5 Rivian trucks all had to be towed out after similar damage.
A stock F150, or any other full sized truck, would be totaled on this trail.
