More updated pictures of my hydraulic re-installation

I posted some pictures of my pumps mounted in the trunk and hardlined, so here's some newer pictures of my dumps, accumulators, etc mounted behind the back bumper. I only have abuot half the hardline done, and I know my slowdows suck, but they work well and never leak for me. I'll have to cut the metal bumper structural support down a little, but other than that everything should bolt back up and look factory. Here's some pics:





and for those who missed it...pictures of the pumps and the car they're in:

you are worried about it getting to hot and melting the rear bumper?


btw, what kind of batteries are you running?

Those are AGMs right? Our AGM line is about to hit the market, think you would be interested in a sponsorship? How many cars in the crew run hydros?

I don't even know what AGM's are...what are they? In my club we have about 6 juiced cars.

Accord wagon
Accord Coupe
Acura CL
Acura RL
Maxima
Toyota Extra Cab

Then a few others that are bagged

AGM is Absorbed Glass Matt batteries, it's a fairly new technology and i'm pretty sure that's what the blue cap optimas are. Do you have any idea what the rest of your crew is running as far as batteries. We can probably work out a deal where you'd get yours free and they'd pay cost on theirs.

here is our company, you've probably heard of them, we are fairly popular on the lowrider circuit

That set up is super clean!! At least if you develop any leaks in the accumulators or dumps, it won't leak all over your trunk!! The steel lines is definately a sign of a nice set up!!

Remeber, liquids don't compress, so it gives the car a nice ride by allowing the oil to compress a prepresurised nitrogen bladder. Think of the compressed nitrogen as a spring for the oil to act upon.

thx man. i used to see cars in the japanese version of lowrider magazine that had accumulators and i wondered what they were for. it's funny how the japanese are always a step ahead of us, even when it's something we created, like lowriding.
