No Expense Spared Engineering. Creating and Solving The Ultimate Wish List.
When developing these rear spring arms we created a wish-list born out of our racing experience setting lap records at the track as well our experience working on 1000s of customer cars.
Our wish list looked something like this:
– At the race track, rapid ability to increase/decrease ride height with just a jack and a socket wrench
– During corner balancing enabling the ability to perform rapid height adjustments on the spot
– Specific for the Tesla Model Y: Enabling the rear suspension heights to go lower without requiring an immensely short spring with extreme spring rates and reduced spring travel
– Ability to exceed lowest height spring orientation on Model 3 and Model Y allowed with factory spring arms
– Enable rapid raising of the car for winter use or offroading (all Unplugged Performance coilovers have adjustable length shock bodies and have the capability to go higher than factory ride height)
– Reduction of additional parts and weight by eliminating rear spring perch
* Optional rear spring set: Develop a rear spring that is height adjustable without any additional hardware (no bottom perch and no spring top adaptor either)
Results
The above wish list items were all solved over multiple design iterations and testing lasting nearly a full year. In the process, we’ve managed to retain ride quality while going lower than ever possible without compromise on the Model Y rear suspension. We’ve also managed to lift another Model Y to new heights with this same system. We’ve set racing lap records with the Model Y and Model 3 both using these parts and continue to daily drive on them. Throughout all of the testing, we’ve enjoyed newfound ease in setting rear ride height by simply turning the 32mm socket.
Selecting The Right Plan For Your Car
These will rapidly install on any Model 3 or Model Y. If you already have coilovers please verify rear spring ID size with the manufacturer if they are not made by Unplugged. These arms accept 65mm or 2.5” ID which are common spring sizes. Adaptors from 65mm to other larger sizes may be possible by 3rd party as well. A common rear spring length is frequently 7”. These spring arms are compatible with all current-generation Unplugged Performance coilovers and nothing further needs to be purchased to fit. If you do not have coilovers, you will still be able to use these however you’ll need to purchase an appropriate sized rear spring set. We’ve made a special rear spring set for this purpose and we offer it as a plug and play package.
Optional Perch-less Unplugged Performance x Hyperco Rear Coilover Spring Set
One of our wish list items was to have a fully and rapidly adjustable rear ride height without the use of any spring travel inhibiting perches or adaptors. Typically a height-adjustable purchase is required on one end of a spring meanwhile an adaptor is required on the other end of the spring to securely fit coilover springs. We’ve developed a purpose-built rear spring set in a sporty yet every day suited spring rate that requires no adaptors or additional hardware. The bottom of the spring is 65mm and the top of the spring is Tesla Model 3/Y specific shape. This allows unrestricted spring travel, unprecedented fast height adjustment, and the ability to go lower than the factory spring arm allows without the need to go with a shorter spring and less spring travel.

Can these also lift the car for winter or light off-road use?
Yes. The same system raises the rear above factory height, which owners use for winter driving or rougher roads. UP notes their coilovers also have adjustable-length shock bodies that can exceed stock height, so the front can follow. Because adjustment is just turning the 32mm socket, going up for the season and back down later is quick.
What is the optional Hyperco rear spring set for?
It is a perch-less rear spring UP developed with Hyperco so you get fully adjustable rear height with no travel-robbing perches or adapters. The bottom is 65mm and the top is shaped specifically for the Model 3 and Model Y, which allows unrestricted spring travel and lets the car sit lower than the factory arm without switching to a shorter spring. It runs $175 as an add-on and suits a sporty yet everyday rate.
What are these arms made of and how much do they weigh?
They are machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum and finished in Cerakote to preserve the bare machined look. Assembled weight is 7.8 lbs per side, and pairing them with coilover rear springs actually removes weight by deleting the separate rear spring perch. Design used 3D scanning and FEA strength analysis, with set screws front and rear to lock the seat in place.
Are these overkill next to a full coilover kit?
They solve a different problem. A coilover kit sets damping and overall ride character; these arms make rear ride-height changes fast and let the Model Y sit lower without sacrificing travel. They are made to work with UP coilovers, not replace them. If you want four-way adjustable damping on top, the UP x Ohlins Nur SPL TTX coilover set is the high-end pairing, and these spring arms complement it.
How often would I actually adjust the height?
That is up to how you use the car. Corner-balancing at the shop, dropping it for a track weekend, or raising it for winter are the common reasons, and each takes minutes here. Some owners set a height once and leave it. The point is that changing it later never means pulling springs again.
What kind of warranty backs the Ultimate Edition arms?
UP warranties these for 200,000 miles and includes off-road and racing use, which is unusual, plus a 30-day money-back guarantee. The warranty is non-transferable. These are priced at $1,395 as the no-compromise rear spring arm, so the coverage matches the intent of a part meant to outlast the car it is bolted to.
How do these height-adjustable rear spring arms change ride height?
The spring seat is built into the arm and moves up or down when you turn a standard 32mm socket, so you raise or lower the rear without swapping springs. Machined up and down indicators show where you are. It means a rear ride-height change at the track or the alignment shop takes minutes with a jack and a wrench, not an afternoon of parts.
Can I run these on a Model Y without buying coilovers?
Yes, but you need the right rear spring. These arms are compatible with all current-generation Unplugged Performance coilovers with nothing further to buy. Without coilovers you will need an appropriate rear spring set, and UP offers a purpose-built 65mm-bottom set as a plug-and-play add-on. The arms accept 65mm or 2.5-inch ID springs, with a common length around seven inches.
Do these fit both the pre-refresh Model 3 and the Model Y?
They install rapidly on any Model 3 or Model Y, and at checkout you pick Model 3 2017-2023 pre-refresh, Model 3 late-2023 refresh, or Model Y. UP developed and validated the design on both the 3 and the Y across street and track driving. They install with factory hardware, so the swap uses the car’s existing mounting points.
How low can a Model Y go on these compared to normal lowering springs?
On the Model Y these let the rear go lower than the factory spring arm allows without forcing you onto an extremely short spring with harsh rates and little travel. That was a specific design goal: more drop while keeping usable spring travel and ride quality. UP set racing lap records with both the Model Y and Model 3 running these arms, the kind of setup you can bring to a TeslaCorsa track day, then kept daily driving on them.
Will upgrading my brakes void the Tesla warranty?
Tesla’s warranty covers factory-installed parts, but it does not automatically void your warranty if you install aftermarket components like Unplugged Performance brake kits. Under U.S. law (Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act), Tesla must prove that an aftermarket part caused a failure in order to deny warranty coverage. Our parts are engineered to work harmoniously with Tesla OEM Brake systems and can be professionally installed by Unplugged Performance in Hawthorne, CA or by an authorized installer to minimize risk. That said, any damage directly caused by misuse or improper installation may not be covered. We recommend retaining all factory parts so you can revert to stock if needed. Many Tesla owners enjoy peace of mind by using Unplugged Performance products, which are extensively tested and installed by certified professionals. If warranty concerns are top-of-mind, our team can help clarify compatibility and installation best practices to ensure a worry-free experience.
What does the Unplugged Performance product warranty cover?
Unplugged Performance offers a comprehensive warranty on all parts and installations performed by our certified technicians. Warranty coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship on items including lowering springs, coilovers, big brake kits, brake pads, stainless steel brake lines, shocks, and more. Should any covered part fail under normal use or display premature wear, we will repair or replace it at no additional cost—assuming the component was installed by us or at one of our authorized partners.
This warranty is valid for 2 years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first, excluding consumable products like brake pads, rotors, and tires, starting from the installation date. Coverage extends to labor for warranty repairs when performed by Unplugged Performance or an authorized installer. It does not cover damage resulting from misuse, accidents, off‑road use, improper installation not done by us, or modifications that aren’t factory-approved.
To file a warranty claim, simply contact our service team. We’ll guide you through inspection, shipping (if needed), and repair or replacement logistics. transparencia and top-tier support are what you can expect from Unplugged.
Will installing Unplugged Performance parts void my Tesla warranty?
Installing aftermarket parts does not automatically void your Tesla warranty. Under the Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act (www.sema.org/sema-enews/2011/01/ftc-validates-right-to-install-aftermarket-parts), a manufacturer cannot void your warranty simply because you installed aftermarket parts. Tesla must prove that the aftermarket part caused the specific failure in question to deny a warranty claim. UP recommends retaining all factory parts to allow reverting to stock if needed.
