Taylor, how much extra thinking is there in the hybrid setup like you have? haha.

that one must of went right over my head......

lol, how do you come up with how to run everything with the juice and air together. obviously they have to be together, on top of each other, but is there any drasticly different over your basic bag and dro setup?

here ya go shavedmax

hmmm, im going to guess that you really dont understand what im doing with the bag in the setup..... The air and hydro system never cross paths. The air bag is just thare to determine the spring rate of the setup, instead of using the typical coil springs. The bag will be at a set PSI to determine that spring rate....i can adjust it to whatever i want depending on how still or soft i want the ride for that particular instance.

I was going to make a under construction topic soon, with a bunch of pics in it.....it will be easier to see when you look at the new pics.

taylor

pretty sure i understand now...

the bag has nothing to do with lift, just how it rides, and the hydros are what do the lifting/lowering, right? Maybe I should just wait for the new thread LOL

^^^ you got it. the cylinders will push on the bag that will push on the frame so you will get the ride of the bag but the fun of hydraulics, and he can be at any hight and at any firmness/softness.

but chopped, you never said who makes and where you got the airbags

I gotta question, how do cylinders mount to-whatever your mounting them to?

Like, brackets??

I don't get it, all i ever see is the bare cylinder and when their mounted i jus see then in a hole!

What holds em in place??

Those are some really clean setups. I have been thinking about it. my next project ride will have juice on it. Besides the batteries the rest of the setup looks clean.
