Rebuilt Large Drive Units – LDU

Ready-to-Run โ€” Tesla Sport Large Drive Unit (LDU) โ€” Rebuilt

Model S/X Sport LDU โ€ข Bench-Tested FWD/REV

We start with a Sport LDU in excellent condition and perform a light rebuild: pressure wash & cosmetic refresh, new axle seals, fresh ATF, and a coolant bypass to eliminate the rotor-seal failure mode.ย  We then validate on our bench in forward and reverse for smooth, quiet operation.

Why buy this unit / Why Gruber
