Essential Undercarriage and Battery Protection
Lifting an electric vehicle requires meticulous attention to weight distribution and contact surfaces. The high-voltage battery enclosure of the Tesla Model Y extends along the lower floorpan, leaving very narrow tolerances around the designated lifting points. Standard workshop jacks and commercial lifts often feature broad metal saddles that risk making direct contact with the perimeter of the battery housing or vehicle side skirts. Introducing our dedicated lifting pucks eliminates this risk by bridging the gap between service equipment and the chassis.
Each unit seats directly into the factory aperture, creating a safe stand-off distance that ensures lifting forces are routed exclusively through the reinforced structural jacking points. This protective clearance keeps hydraulic arms and lift pads completely clear of the surrounding side sills, lower paintwork, and critical electrical components. Exploring dedicated Model Y accessories ensures your vehicle maintains structural integrity throughout every workshop visit, whether performing seasonal wheel changes or mechanical inspections.
Heavy-Duty Rubber Construction and Load Rating
Constructed entirely from exceptionally strong, heavy-duty solid rubber, this four-piece set is built to withstand demanding garage environments and substantial pressures. The material compound delivers the ideal balance between structural rigidity and surface elasticity. While remaining uncompromisingly firm under load, the dense rubber naturally absorbs minor mechanical vibrations and cushions direct metal-to-metal contact, preventing scratches and micro-abrasions to the factory finish on the vehicle underside.
Engineered with a certified load capacity of up to 3 tonnes, the set effortlessly accommodates the substantial mass of the Model Y during four-point hoist lifting or single-corner maintenance. The non-slip surface texture and specialised lower rubber layer provide critical friction against hydraulic jack plates, preventing lateral shifting or displacement while the vehicle is elevated.

Precise Dimensions and Vehicle Compatibility
Exact dimensions are crucial for secure vehicle positioning. Each lifting pad in this four-piece kit features an outer diameter of 6 cm and a total height of 5 cm, carefully proportioned to engage cleanly with the factory sockets without catching on surrounding underbody trim panels. The compact profile ensures stable, upright seating inside the socket, preventing rocking or tilting when under heavy mechanical compression.
This set is specifically designed for the Tesla Model Y across all standard production years, including the Model Y Juniper Premium built from March 2025 onwards. However, clear exclusions apply due to unique underbody battery rail configurations: this set is not suitable for the Model Y Standard Range built between 2021 and February 2025 equipped with BYD or CATL battery packs (identifiable by the VIN sequence XP7...E.......). Additionally, it is not compatible with the Model Y Juniper Standard RWD variant scheduled from November 2025.
Straightforward Installation and Workshop Use
Utilising the lifting pucks is an entirely tool-free and intuitive process. Prior to elevating the vehicle, locate the circular factory jacking points positioned directly behind the front wheel arches and immediately forward of the rear wheel arches. Simply align the upper locator pin of each pad with the hole in the vehicle chassis and press it upward until the base sits flush against the frame.
Once in place, position your floor jack or workshop hoist pad centrally beneath the 6 cm rubber face. The slip-resistant lower layer provides stable contact against the metal saddle of the jack, giving technicians and home mechanics full confidence as elevation begins. With all four pads installed simultaneously, professional hoists can raise the entire vehicle evenly for complete wheel rotations or comprehensive maintenance servicing. Once the car is lowered, simply pull each pad down to release.
Proper Storage and Rubber Care
To maintain the durability and non-slip properties of the heavy-duty rubber, routine care is straightforward. After use, inspect the pads for residual road grit, gravel, or shop floor debris that could transfer abrasive particles to your vehicle underside during future lifts. If necessary, wipe the rubber clean with a damp cloth or rinse under clean water, avoiding harsh petroleum-based chemical solvents that may degrade rubber integrity over time.
Store the set in a dry, temperate area away from direct extended sunlight, such as inside your sub-trunk or garage tool storage. Because vehicle service centres and tyre specialists do not always keep vehicle-specific adapters on hand, keeping this compact set permanently onboard ensures you are fully prepared for unexpected puncture repairs or workshop visits wherever your journeys take you.
Why Choose Dedicated Model Y Jack Pads
Electric vehicles carry a substantial kerb weight primarily concentrated in the lower floor battery assembly. Attempting to lift a Model Y using generic workshop jacks without proper adapter pucks introduces an unnecessary risk of severe and costly underbody damage. Crushed rocker panels, cracked battery casings, and ruined undercarriage paint can result from improperly distributed pressure during basic tyre changes.
Investing in a dedicated four-piece set provides complete peace of mind whenever your car leaves the ground. Designed to meet the exact physical requirements of the platform, these pads standardise your lifting points and protect vulnerable components effortlessly. Every order comes backed by our dependable store service, featuring free tracked delivery on purchases from €50, prompt 2 to 5 business day transit, and 30 days of hassle-free returns.
Frequently asked questions
Why are dedicated jack pads necessary for lifting the Tesla Model Y?
The Tesla Model Y features a large high-voltage battery pack spanning the lower chassis, positioned very close to the factory lifting locations. Generic jack heads can slip or press directly against the battery pack edges and side skirts, risking significant cosmetic or structural harm. These dedicated pads fit securely into the factory sockets, creating a safe 5 cm buffer that ensures all lifting force is directed strictly into the reinforced structural points.
Which Model Y models are compatible with this jack pad set?
This set is designed for the Tesla Model Y across all standard production years, including the Model Y Juniper Premium (March 2025 onwards). It is NOT compatible with Model Y Standard Range models delivered between 2021 and February 2025 featuring BYD or CATL battery packs (identifiable by a VIN containing XP7...E.......). It is also incompatible with the Model Y Juniper Standard RWD variant delivered from November 2025 onwards.
What are the exact dimensions and weight capacity of the pads?
Each pad in this 4-piece kit measures precisely 6 cm in diameter and 5 cm in total height. Manufactured from heavy-duty, highly robust rubber, the set is rated to support loads of up to 3 tonnes, providing more than enough capacity for elevating the Model Y during tyre rotations, brake servicing, or two-post vehicle lift procedures.
Should I leave the jack pads installed in the car while driving?
No, the jack pads are temporary service adapters designed exclusively for use while the vehicle is being serviced or lifted. They should be inserted into the underbody sockets immediately prior to raising the car and removed as soon as the vehicle is safely back on the ground, then stored away in your boot or underfloor storage compartment.
What are the delivery timescales and return conditions?
We dispatch all orders promptly, with tracked delivery typically completed within 2 to 5 business days. Tracked shipping is entirely free on orders over €50. If you find the product does not meet your expectations or vehicle specifications, you may return it within our 30-day return window.
