i use hydroulic fluid from autozone. i used non-detergent at first and its not as nice as the hydroulic fluid. i figure its at autozone and real easy to get so i swapped over and it acts a lot better, doesnt foam. you will love hydros

question. i lefted the ride up all the way and about 3 or 4 hrs later the front driver side was on the ground. any suggestions? and how to fix it?

check your check valves. a way to check it is to lock it up all the way and close the slow downs all the way off, if it still falls then you have bad o rings in the strokes. if it stays locked up then you have bad check valves.
