For 3 grand it just “eats it up a little better” over road bumps ! Hmmm I’d say that’s a shitty suspension upgrade!

[@wardsworldwelcometoit]

Now take the 10 fwy between Buckeye and Quartzite and let us know! 😳😜 … thanks for the great input, I’m close to getting over to Unplugged to upgrade my 2020 MY. 👍🏼

[@edsoto7]

looks like a true mini model s with those rims. I may get a model 3 for the cheap :) so tempted now. but the new model 3 is gorgeous

[@paulkieffer1189]

I’m absolutely buying this.

[@Joe_Brig]

Love to see a Model Y stock vs Unplugged, Koni FSD, others. Maybe shocks only and blind test drive. Best sub $1500 all in upgrade.

[@hengloose]

The drop and wheel covers look good 👍🏽

[@officialyasir]

Pound feet or lb-ft is correct. The “pound-foot” (lb-ft) is a unit of torque and a vector measurement that is created by one pound of force acting on a one foot lever. The “foot-pound” (or more accurately, “foot-pound-force”), on the other hand, is a measurement of work. Work is the measurement of force over a given distance. So one foot-pound-force (ft-lbf or just ft-lb) is the energy required to move a one pound object one foot of linear distance.

[@beezyb11]

The sniff tire test at the 15:16 mark 😂

[@ckleung7]

Nice

[@jarmis777]

Thanks for the video as I’ve been considering a suspension upgrade for my 2019 Model 3. Units for torque involves multiplying a distance and a force and the commutative property from algebra tells us A*B = B*A. Therefore, you can choose to write ft-lbs or lb-ft. Both are correct mathematically speaking. Having said that I’m only familiar with folks saying ft-lbs. 🤓

[@MrCocoriver]

took the model y to unplugged for the luxury kit so far i love it any improvement is better ...why not

[@SAT1337]

Because it costs $3000, that’s why not.

[@JRCarReviews]

I was surprised you didn't install Coni comfort suspension or Highland ones.

[@Digital-Dan]

What I want is more cameras on the car, with the software to go with them. Mostly in front, for better uncontrolled turn vision and better forward parking.

[@gforce2002]

Because it’s a measure of force over a distance, lb-ft is actually correct, despite the common usage.

[@jarmis777]

No, it’s force X distance, therefore both are correct. A*B = B*A in algebra.

[@tf7820]

@@jarmis777 Thank you.. Pounds*feet or foot*pounds...

[@jarmis777]

@@tf7820 👍

[@peterbigblock]

Lb-ft is the correct term for torque. Foot-pounds of force is a unit of measurement of work.

[@jefferrrson1x]

Hmm… I wonder if I should do this for my model y later on…

[@david100483]

I want this suspension for my model y but don’t want to lower it at all :/

[@Mike-vq1fm]

Handling is sacrificed with a softer ride but if you're lowering the car also, you're improving handling

[@marcpelegrin8573]

Buy the Koni FSD. Cheap and improves ride like 25-30%

[@pauld6967]

Interesting. However I aim to go the other direction. I want increased shock absorption but I also want greater ground cleance, not less.

[@dyhppyx]

How does it compare to the tein endura pros

[@VeniVidiVid]

I believe “ft⋅lb” is pronounced “newton meters”.

[@jumpropeclass]

How does the ride compare to the Model 3 Highland suspension ride?

[@binjones]

What suspension improvements are available for the model x?

[@NIAtoolkit]

6:46 I’m in the lb-ft camp

[@TB-up4xi]

Ft-lbs is like saying metres-newtons instead of newton-meteres

[@crxin2000]

Where’s Lukas shop and contact info? Is he at the tint place in the description? East valley and looking for a trustworthy install. Thank you and another good video.

[@Gjeebs]

[@b4804514]

Hey Do we know what they did to the highland model 3 suspension? It rides very very nice now. It is all about the springs. Those springs looked so much better. Installed the Tein shocks on the Y and it was better but not Highland better. Is this Highland better?

[@JonathanChasr]

That’s exactly what I’m wondering too. Test drove the high land and loved how much softer the ride quality was. Been on the hunt to upgrade my 2023 to be like the highlands suspension

[@rogermartinez78]

Brake fluid should be changed every two years even if you don’t use it, remember brake fluid is hydro scopic, which means it attracts moisture. I would never wait until 80K miles.

[@matthewprather7386]

Coil bind on the springs? Hm…

Who did the install?

[@Gjeebs]

It's in the description

[@ovidiunecula3233]

I have installed UPP Luxury Suspension kit with their mild springs on my Y Performance from 2023 and I noticed a clunk noise while turning the wheel full turn which can be heard from outside (front left side) but is louder inside the cabin. Anyone noticed the same and how did you fix it? kzbin.infoV-4KGSi7ifY?feature=share

[@user-ke2dh2mt8x]

It could be a few different things, but you are hearing the springs pinging when it slips on one of the ends at the top or bottom when it is binding a bit. When the unit is rebuilt at installation with the car's upper mount, the spring ends need to sit correctly in the rubber seat pockets. If the upper mount was assembled slightly askew and later twisted a little to orient the upper mount screws into the apron holes, it might have put a little bit of load on it. Also, using a little bit of grease between the rubber and spring helps to relieve the small loads and tension, too. Just taking these approaches to prevent spring pre-tension will work to eliminate pining. Tesla Model 3/Y do have a very large dynamic alignment change as the front hubs are steered right to left, and vice versa. Camber and caster swings quite a bit and if the springs on the perch is allowed to stick-slip, it will make pinging noises.
