Not to mention adds sooooo much more weight. Not to mention, you blow a hydro line, there goes your interior. Blow an air line, and you just get a nice gust, maybe some light mist of moisture. Still, you'd e able to pull your wheels off the ground. :mrgreen:

what are the odds of actually blowing a hydro line though? and if someone set it up so if they were to blow it got fluid everywhere then they deserve to lose their interior. :mrgreen:

Since when are these two cats concerned with weight? And if they are. Why?

Hydraulic lines don't just blow. I work with hydraulic systems daily. I also work with pnumatics and of the two for movement operations hydraulics is the answer. I agree air is cleaner but air compressor/bag failure would be less severe although more likely. Not to mention leaks are harder to find. Holding valves almost never fail while air checks do along with reliefs.

I'm just saying. To each their own.

Post Re: Matt and Jake Do iT!
that's true these lines just dont blow unless you put some crappy ones... and they usually just leak out but doesnt blow like volcano lol... but then, bags are cheaper right? most of the cars with hydraulics that i see use it to go bump up and down while driving down the street.lol and i don't think these guys do that, they just want there cars to go low and air is adequate enough, imo...

True, it is highly unlikely. For normal use, no... but if you do what they were doing in that video, and a line bursts, THEN you will have a nice squirt. I'm just sayin'. Sheesh, you guys got a bit too serious on that one.

This was a big what if. The most important thing to note was the weight aspect, but I guess you all can focus on the fluid part if you like.

Pfft. In cleanliness maybe but not in function.


C'mon whats more a show stopper a up/down set of baggys or a dancing hydro car?

I had a dancing bed on my mini-truck in the late 80's and it definately got attention.

Still don't know why weight matters?

If i could afford them id do hyrdros in a second. way more lift, way more low, and rides good at any height. Air is just a more affordable way to get low, but hydros have every aspect covered.

my car is slow enough as is being gutted without a sunroof/power windows/rear seats. i dont want 5 batteries and all that fluid sitting in my car weighing me down even more :finga:

dancing trucks take alot of money to make them structurally stable for taking all that pressure and weight from going up in the air then bashing on the ground. i dont want to spend THAT much on my lil car

I would do hydro's on my car. I like it better than air but for practicality reasons I will go with air.
