Terrestrial Package Without Rock Sliders but Running Boards Instead

[EasternSP]

I would be interested in the under armor protection to protect my battery from run of the mill road debris but I like the running boards instead of the rock sliders.
I kind mentioned my interest in another thread but it didn't get any response. I might not have been specific enough.
Can only the armor be installed along with running boards on the AWD CT and leave the rock sliders off?

Yeah, seems possible, but the fastener length might need to change or get an extra washer. May also need some creativity at their mating point.

Looks kinda involved. Not sure if this can be done as a DIY project to just skip the rock sliders and install the running boards instead.

You may be interested in these from Tsportline. They provide a 5” wide step and weigh about 47 pounds each.

I have the running boards installed already. I just want to get some kind of protection from road debris that can be installed along with my existing running boards. I suppose all running boards for the CT mount using the same bolt holes.

Gotcha.

Have you entertained purchasing the Tesla OEM Battery Armor for around $2k in the Tesla parts catalog?

Those look like they use the same holes as the pack armor. Might work over it.

I didn't see those. Thanks.

Love the LOD Destroyer Series combo slider/steps on my 2021 Jeep Wrangler 2Dr. There is a huge difference between cheap running boards and LOD rock sliders! Just sent a request into LOD asking about rock sliders for the CT.

I like the underbody protection/running board offerings from Tsportline. It’s roughly $1200 vs. $3,500 for the Tesla Terrestrial Armor Package (after delivery) but it doesn’t include battery pack protection.

Nor installation.
Tesla $3.5k is all in price (other than sales tax)
