My Hydraulics...EXPOSED!

I finally decided to spend some time and really get elaborate with my hydraulic install. So far I cut out either side of my spare tire well, plated them in and mounted 4 pumps with whammy tanks. I used Stainless Steel .049 hardline and hand bent them to some bulkhead fittings in the floor. From there all the lines will run under the car and everything else will be hidden under the back bumper. Here's what I have so far...only about 30 hours into it:



And here's the car they're in for those who haven't seen it:

Fukin Ill...yep synth was right...look at the back half of the car. It does resemble a 95 Impala SS. See if you can take some better shots of the trunk from standing back some more.

Seeing his car in person is so much more rediculous than the pics. The pics barely do it justice.

ITS THE LIMBO.... HOW LOW CAN U GO??

I have optima marine deep cycles. They look best...but don't hold a charge as well as others. I'm thinking about trading for some lighting audios. We'll see...

Thanks for all the compliments
