I wonder if it is true about air cylinders being unreliable. I like the idea of using air cylinders - not for this car, but maybe a future project.

It sounds like air springs are the best choice, unless, I suppose, if you want to pull as well as push.

shut up fuckhead... :uh:


the lines in the diagram are the hoses from the valve, the big block thing is a spool valve..

air into the piston side will extend the cylinder and raise the car, air into the other side will drop the car and suck the wheel up..
