Technical info / Detailed drawings

[willbilly]

Hi, industrial designer here. Will Slate be providing technical info (like mounting points, rail sizes, etc) for aftermarket startups? I'm toying with the idea of making some products for the truck and if possible I'd like to start playing around in CAD and on the printer ASAP.

They've stated that they will be releasing CAD drawings and detailed specs like load ratings for the various mounting points. There's a bunch of pre-drilled/tapped/etc points around the vehicle that they refer to as "Slate Access Points" or SAPs that they will use for their own add ons, but are also available for 3rd parties to utilize however they want.

Those CAD files are not released yet, and I wouldn't expect them until very close to launch late next year.
