if you dont know what your talking about dont talk shit. my shit rides like a caddy, gets more lift than similar setups with bags, and doesn't leak a drop of oil.

to the question about the angle you can use the cylinders on an angle but i wouldnt go too much. then the cylinder wont be able to support much weight at the center when extended and can snap.

yeah...because i have never taken a ride in a juiced vehicle before...

theres many nice trucks with hydraulics, and i totally think juice is cool; but, ive been in ones that ride relatively smooth but most are bouncy. everytime i have cruised with a group of people, most of the time its the guy with juice thats changing part of his suspension in a parking lot somewhere...sorry its just what i have seen. yeah, go ahead and say how your shit is the best i believe you.

wow you've taken a ride in one before, your knowledge blows me away now. yea i've ridden in hoppers that rode like shit, but hoppers that use bags ride like shit too. ride in something set up to drive, try an accumulator. ive owned both types of setups. as far as reliability ive been going to shows for about 10 years now, and it seems almost every show i go to i see a guy changing a blown bag or airline, or swapping out a busted valve. i've had the same setup in my truck since 2001, i blew out a cylinder seal once, it cost about 5 dollars to get a new one.

and this isnt a rip on bag people, 95 percent of my club is bagged. hydros is just my preference, and people who have 0 experience with them like to act like they know something.

my buddies rides good with dros, and its not even a good setup. well, not perfect. its fun as shit too.

Speaking of water balloons above, I heard those are aim's new best seller.

typical mini truck mentality on hydraulics. i would front about his comments, ignorance happens to lots of people.

oh and if you do plan on accumulators make sure you hone the inside of your cylinder so your seals last longer

i dont have a most recent pic... but here is how it turned out ... we mounted the dual pump, single wammy tank right above the link tabs at the front (not pictured)

ok you have not ridin in one but you have...make some since

my truck is on coil overs in the back and coil unders in the front and the way its set up rides as good if not better than any airride truck i drive mine daily no leaks no problems

Rediculous mentality really... hes ridden in one and it rode like shit... jeez call cnn, weve been doing hydraulics since late 80's early 90's, and I can make a juiced car or truck ride better than a bagged truck with no leaks and no problems at all... most of all problems is installer error...

all pumps are virtually the same... up until 3 years ago every pump on the market had the same pumphead/gear and that was a marzottci, now pro hopper has a g force but evey other pump has marzottci's still and you cant buy a marzottci unless you buy it from CCE, every accumulator available comes from parker... CCE had problems with cylinders recently that leaked, but hes changed the manufacturer, weve had the same setup on our dancer for 8 years now... no leaks... all we change is batteries... the ideal setup is a CCE block with a SACO motor, and a marzottci pump head, and a prohopper cylinder... with parker hoses, and oil systems dumps, use single solenoids instead of solenoid blocks, run at least 3 solenoids per pump, dont hold the switch down when you lift it.. you have to flick it unless your running 12 volts only, and charge your damn batteries you wont have a problem... now sorry about the book... have a nice day
