How did you come to that price? Innovation has a price, are there other options?

I get 3k is a lot but when you spend time in R&D, and it is a niche product for a very limited vehicle, price will be high.

99% of owners won’t be purchasing it anyways.

Just check other commenters, there are many monster truck parts available.

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to share a new product that we just released!

Our new CYBRSHOCKS are a direct bolt on shock application that provides better handling, more capable payload control, and improved comfort on and off road by supplementing the rear shocks with our double adjustable secondary rear shock.

Our solution is simple but effective. We engineered a secondary shock that sits inside the rear wishbone and stabilizes, smooths and dampens the body motion. It’s fully adjustable for compression and rebound and can be installed or uninstalled with just a few bolts. If you are carrying especially heavy loads you can turn up the damping, or just “set it and forget it” and enjoy the smoother ride and improved handling. This is one of those great modifications that we can wholeheartedly recommend to every Cybertruck owner: it’s all upside, with no-compromise on ride quality. Those of you who really push your trucks to the limit will benefit even more.

Check out our install video here.

I had to laugh when I saw the price, $3,000 for $400 worth of shocks..

I am still waiting on pre order product from almost 2 years ago

The truck also has airborne mode where it maxes out compression stiffness if it senses the wheels are in the air to avoid bottoming out on the landing (as much as possible, at least).
If this add on reduces extension (rebound), that could reduce available travel on landing.
I wonder if the vehicle computer will try to compensate for it to achieve expected travel rates, or if it's just open loop settings.

My impression from having driven my Cybertruck on many road surfaces types, from glassy smooth to full of dips, bumps, lips and whoops, is that the adaptive dampers adjust on the fly to the nature of the surface. And the only way I can see it does this is to the leverage the data sent by the four ride-height sensors.

Imagine four graphs of the extension level of each sensor at 1/20th second intervals as the truck travels a bumpy trail at 25 mph. I suspect the controlling computer watches these values, compares them to the speed of the vehicle and other factors (like the air pressure in the air suspension), and adjusts the damping to suit, thus keeping the action of each wheels suspension in a good range for current conditions. I'm quite confident it works something like this. This adding additional dampers to the system would cause the adaptive dampers to back off on the damping, with very little advantage other than perhaps helping to reduce the heat buildup that naturally happens in the adaptive dampers when worked hard.

Of course damping can vary depending upon the speed of the suspension movement too. This is why many dampers have high and low speed damping orifices. So the net result of adding aftermarket dampers is not necessarily zero. But it seems to introduce a lot of complications and unknowns, for what is likely minimal change in the suspension action. Those changes could be positive or negative depending upon the current conditions.

The listing claims there is no downside. That's not true, at a bare minimum it increases the unsprung mass, which is always a net negative. I'm highly skeptical that it's a good idea to add additional "dumb" dampers to a system that is already regulated automatically on the fly.

Sway bar $350 seems ok but shocks $3000 yikes not going to fly off the shelves at that price.

A test AWD CT with this setup will help me decide if this is worthwhile for me, as it is right now my AWD CT suspension is phenomenal.
