Approved Frame Bench Systems and Optional Electronic Measuring Systems

Lists the approved frame bench systems and the optional electronic measuring systems for use when repairing Tesla vehicles.

Frame Bench Systems

The following approved frame bench system companies work closely with the Tesla Body Repair Program to design and build fixtures to Tesla’s exact specifications. This collaboration not only provides accurate component location, but also ensures safe and proper support of the body structure during the repair process.

Note

Some structural repairs on Tesla vehicles must be performed with the vehicle properly mounted to an approved frame bench. When a frame bench is to be used for a particular structural repair, the Repair Information section of the repair procedure indicates to perform the repair using a frame bench. The electronic measuring systems listed in Optional Electronic Measuring Systems can be used for damage analysis, but are not a substitute for component fixturing during structural repair.

Note

Frame bench data sheets can be obtained from the frame bench manufacturer or an authorized distributor.

Note

Use only approved frame bench systems when repairing Tesla vehicles.

Note

When performing a repair using a frame bench, use a minimum of 8 control points to the frame bench.
