Accumulators, Dumps, and Springs

Zer0KlearancE · 06-14-2004, 03:19 AM

Ok I have a few small issues with my current setup and am looking for advice, currently I'm running a CCE Street Edition (2 pump) kit on my truck off of 36 volts. Anyways here's my problems, 1. When I raise my front or dump it no matter what I do unless I'm at full pressure my driver side is lower by about an inch, 2. (Not sure what weight springs) With my current springs (on a 95 ext cab with a 2.2) at least in the rear I'm extremely bouncy at any pressure and will literally leave pavement at full pressure. What I need to know is if there is a way to make a solid mount for the rear end and use accumulators, whether that would be adviseable or not, and also if I should be looking at replacing dump cartridges for the front cylinders due to the unbalanced nature of my adjustments (a few months ago I would stay level)

Thanks

A couple of questions are the spring you are running in front the same type, height, weight handling, and what not. The dumps would not have anything to do with the truck sitting uneven there is something else holding it at different heights. as for the rear you have improper springs not sure what you are running in the rear but if it can cause you to leave the pavement they are not correct. Get different spring. Also I would suggest using shocks plain and simple without a shock your truck will not ride as nice as you want it to. I ran honda crx springs in the rear of my mazda rode like a dream.

after re reading your post I noticed you said it used to dump even. If that is true then yes I would rebui;d them sorry my brain isn't working all that well today.

I'm thinking now and I'm gonna assume that I'm running stock s-10 springs cut in half. Considering everything else on this truck and the way it was done that would make perfect sense. I appreciate the advice about shocks on the rear and will probably do that in the near future the old mounts have to be replaced as they wont allow the rear end to lay out.
