Tesla Model 3 Drive Unit Inverter Relocation Kit

Unlock the full potential of your EV conversion with our Inverter Relocation & Divorce Kit for the Tesla Model 3 Drive Unit.

While the factory “all-in-one” design is a marvel of engineering, it can be a packaging nightmare for custom builds. This kit allows you to mount the inverter independently of the motor assembly, giving you the freedom to build your drivetrain, your way.

Why “Divorce” Your Drive Unit?

The Tesla Model 3 motor is the gold standard for performance, but the stock configuration presents two major hurdles for enthusiasts: clunky plumbing and fixed rotation. This kit solves both.

1. Solves Coolant Line Fitment Issues

In the stock configuration, the coolant lines for the inverter and motor are integrated into a rigid, bulky path. When swapping these into classic cars or narrow chassis, these lines often collide with frame rails, suspension components, or battery boxes.

• The Fix: By separating the units, you can route your cooling hoses through the most efficient path possible, utilizing standard fittings and eliminating the need for frame modification.

2. Enables Reverse Rotation (Phase Swapping)

Tesla motors are designed to sit in a specific orientation. However, many custom mid-engine or rear-engine layouts require the motor to spin in the opposite direction.

• The Fix: Physical separation allows you to access and swap the high-voltage phase cables between the inverter and the motor. This allows you to electronically reverse the motor’s rotation without losing efficiency or compromising the gearbox’s integrity.

Key Features

• High-Quality Gaskets & Seals: Maintains the IP67-rated weather sealing of your high-voltage components.

• Low Profile Design: Minimizes the footprint of the motor assembly for the tightest possible fitment.

• Heavy-Duty Terminal Blocks: Engineered to handle the massive current flow of the Model 3 Performance and Long Range motors.

• Compatible with Aftermarket Logic Boards: Perfect for use with OpenInverter or other custom control solutions.

What’s in the Box?

• Motor-side interface plate

• Inverter-side interface plate

• High-voltage phase cable extensions (optional lengths available)

• All necessary mounting hardware and sealing rings

Pro Tip: This kit is highly recommended for VW Transporter/Bus conversions and narrow-track kit cars where every millimeter of clearance counts.
