hydraulic cylinders used for air?

re6s wont fit just not enough room. looks like even if i cut more. the bag rubs the frame and the spindle. the re5s have barely enough room. thanks for everyones advice. this is the first time ive done one of these forum topics.

what kind of truck is it on that has no room in the front?

if your that Fkd for space and need that much lift, maybe you need to do something a little more radical like mounting the bags up high with some sort of a canti setup.

volume is what determines how much an air cylinder can lift. a hydraulic cylinder has no where near the volume needed to lift that amount of weight with air. This is why air cylinder are so large in diameter.

its a f-150. well thanks for all the help. i think i get the message. they wont work.

You can get 2600 on an F150.

your suspension is different. mine is an 01

im just gonna put 2600s back on. if they pop, then they pop. thats why i switched to the re5s cause i got stranded after the front left bag poped. took a while to figure out how to get the jack under it. had to put a 2x4 between the frame and lower control arm to get home.

You need re6's those are the equivelant of a 2500 .... RE6's will fit without any rubbing.

No No No, it's not worth someone life to have a low truck....figure it out or don't drive it.
