This ones for you Dave, We finally got together at the MotorFest after Dave and his wife made the 5 hour trip to the south western side of Idaho.
Lots of cars and trucks in the show and way too many to look at them all.
We watched the downtown evening cruise from the marble steps of the Idaho capitol building.
And thanks again for not kicking me............ :lol:

i drove behind a lowrider on a bumpy road , when they have the real deal hydraulics there basicly without any suspension unless they have some hydraulastic canisters (a canister with a membrane in the middle one end filled with hydraulic oil and connected to the hydraulic cylinder the other end filled with a compressable gas , look at the older citroën's they have them from the factory) mounted somewhere in the lines , and ride rockhard

I would love that, and a good place and time to meet. :metal:
I can make a airbagged truck hop. My son even made his 55 Caddy hop. It blew peoples minds. The cops didn't like it though. :haha:

Home again. It was good to meet everyone. Had a great time. ;)Bubba turned out to be to nice to kick in the nuts. :lol: That low rider had springs over the rods so I guess it had some suspension.I was thinking the same thing.

Strodder 07-10-2011 04:05 PM

Re: Daverods project 66
 
All you need are 1/2" valves, and lines, plus strong bags and lots of pressure. Big tanks will help too for more hops. And lots of $$$$ :lol:

daverod 07-10-2011 04:28 PM

Re: Daverods project 66
 
I made it hopp once already. I usally plug it into my shop aircompressor then open the valve slowly. One time the valve was aready open and I just snapped the airhose on the end, Scared the hell out of me.:lol:

i heared of a story once about someone , slickly drunk and needled by his friends opened up the restrictor fully of his full size co2 bottle to see how high his truck would jump.
now wide open thats 860 psi and it jumped allright , busting all 4 airbags in the process , i wouldnt be suprized if it split open all the airlines lengthwize too

I installed air bags in a Ford Ranger, and the guy was hopping it at a cruise night. He popped the bag right next to me, and it stung my leg. I was only 5 feet away. It was firestone bags. Conitechs are stronger. But Slam Specialties are the strongest.
