Depends on what. It'll take A LOT of air pressure to lift.

its on the front of my truck. i need more lift. running 200 psi. the small slams i just bought are a joke. takes more air to lift than my old firestones and gets less lift.

dude, what slams are u using? the re5s? what u just said is the complete opposite of what they do.

yes you can run air in a hydraulic cylinder.... but its not designed for air, so i dont know how well or long it will function...

Prob. wont work, for the simple fact of the volume to weight ratio. why do you think the air cylinders are so much bigger around than a hydraulic ram. Why cant you use some air cylinders up front??

air cans or cylinders only lift like four inches. yes they are re5s and i used to have 2600s and they were too big and rubbed so i switched to re5s and they are like 2 inches shorter and they dont compress as small.

you will not have close to the pressure you need to lift your truck with a hydro cylinder. it would take about 2000 psi to lift it, give or take a little. sounds like you need to do some cutting
