59K Standard Dual-Motor AWD - After Purchase Mods Thread

Unplugged is probably developing SAWD raise & lowering coil springs as we speak

what would be the perfect height for the SAWD?

One note I would add, regarding the collapsible crates, is that I have tried several, and the ones I find best are the Tmat collapsible sidiocrates and the Big Ant collapsible crates. Those are the only ones I have used that have not physically failed (I admittedly overload them and cram stuff into them. The Big Ant crates are the most durable in that regard, but they are also the most expensive FWIW...

did you retorque the nuts !? ( 151 ft lb/205nm after 100 mi. - 21mm socket)- also did you reuse the OEM nuts ? any spare comming in or just plugs & compressor pack ?

Thanks. Just retorqued since I put some miles on it.
I actually bought these lug nuts from Tsportline which are narrow enough for the AW09s.

No spare thought about keeping one of the factory wheels but then it breaks the set of 4.

Thoughts on these side step/cladding?

The side corners are not the best but I do like how it doesn’t decrease height and gives a little bit of a step, especially when washing. (Although a step ladder is a lot cheaper).

...... I know these are only pictures on the web, but DEFINITELY one of the nicest looking Cybertrucks I have seen... Excellent taste and great choices my friend.... driving my 2026 Model Y now, but I am going to give it to my wife when I get my CT... I was at TESLA service in NJ Thursday and there was a beautiful Model 3 Performance in the showroom calling my name..... but I am holding off for my CT.... in the meantime, I hope you enjoy every mile this summer and best wishes

Don't give up on that Model 3 Performance! Once my 59K Cybertruck arrives we're selling my wife's '23 M3 RWD and she's getting my '24 M3P. I'll get it back in about 2 years when we get a Model Y Prem. RWD. We're waiting on HW5.

The M3P is a blast to drive and now with the Model S/X gone, I believe it's the fastest Tesla in production. (Cyberbeast folks may argue that though, but I'll take that bet).

Off topic. Just did a 3.5 hour road trip to the mountains. Let FSD do the work. Worked perfect. Even the wife is a believer. Gotta say I love this truck

I have to admit, as much as I like the standard steelies, that is a good looking wheel and tire combo. The OCD in me would have a fit with all the nooks and crannies in that wheel but it does look mean. I think I'm going the run the OEM out until they're cooked then go with some nice wheels and LT tires. I'm interested in following your Wh/m rates with the new set.

not bad Q + $ for forged nuts + incl. socket to !

get some: Wheel Locks


.... btw after the initial brake-in under 1k miles or so, don't forget to flush/ change the motor oil/ filter (IMO I like: Mobil1 + Hengst) + keep the RPM's under 2.300 esp. when downshifting and no hill/toe or any "ride" on the clutch ........ LOL J/K !!!!

...... Thank you for your opinion.... OMG, NOT WHAT I NEEDED TO HEAR... hahaha.... I came very close to buying M3P in November.... I had a first year zr1 when they came out, which at the time, it was a huge step back towards decent power... m3p is a beast... but my all time NECK WHIPLASH was my '66 vette L72 427... which I would drive to shows and I sold after my twins were born

I have these collapsible crates from Teslaunch. They’re pretty useful.

Thank you for confirming receipt of the stickers. Has anyone else got them yet? I still have several left, if anyone wants one. Just DM the address and I will mail them.

Got mine. Ty.

Does anyone here use this crossbar?

 

[funnbobby]

For crossbars I’ve heard nothing but problems with the Chinese made after market ones like those.

The only ones worth getting are OEM or MARS

I’ve heard that Mars products are made in China. You can find many items with identical designs sold on AliExpress or Taobao. I even saw a tent with the exact same design and color. I’m not certain, but it looks like they might just be rebranding existing products! On the other hand, I believe Cybertruckco products are made in the USA.

 

[funnbobby]

There are some good options on Amazon for way cheaper. Same quality

I really like the design of the Mars, but it is difficult to determine the product's origin.
