Air cylinder problems

My Accord took twice as much air to lift the front then the rear. And like someone else mentioned, air the front up first. I put mufflers in mine and it kept it from jumping and allowed the down to be more controlable too.

My wagon has Chassis Tech 4 inch cans in the front and it lifts at 110 psi. The Prelude has EAI 3.5 inch cans in the front and it takes almost 160 to get it off the ground. The bigger cylinder is necessary for the heavier cars.

I have cans in the back of my truck and had the same pressure drop problem i just stuck a check valve and problem solved.

I dont have problems with lifting the front anymore, I am having problems with clearance in the rear of the car with the chassis tech cylinders fitted.

The cans when fully dumped are clashing with the hand brake mechanism, putting a gouge in the cylinder. I cant believe all the other accords out there havent had similiar issues??

Thanks for the feedback so far guys! but i need to knwo how you guys got around the clearance issues with the rear cylinders

on my accord i went to a 185 switch
front and back would lift fine till second hit on front psi was to low had to dump and raise rear to kick on compresser to lift front
was doing 145 switch first

what cans are on back small ones?

the cylinders take more to lift on the hondas because of the relation to mount and pivot point takes more psi to push in front

i had eai cylinders on my civic and it took 175 or so just to get the front up to a good driving height

eai = garbage,,,the parkers can suck man,,,i got sets here that i have replaced with smcs and cce cans are jsut like smcs nowa exact copy,,,parker is a xcellent product but thier cans that eai sells are total crap the insides are made of plastic and all

so, does anyone have a part number on these SMC cylinders?
