hydro setup for 2000 s10

I was wonder if anyone had a complete hydro setup that works well for sale. I wanna switch from bags because they have way to much upkeep and with juice you never run out of ups and downs. let me know thanx.

Re: hydro setup for 2000 s10

on the contrair. hydros have alot of up keep as well. keeping the batteries charged,leaky cylinders. i am a big fan of hydros, it is what i am running but it has its pros an cons like baggs. i could go on an on about things that could go wrong. an also about the better things of hydros. but it is better to go into it knowing that there are many things that will go wrong with hydros. so i would say if you are serious about going to hydros. keep in mind things will go wrong an things will break. more so if you get a brand new set up. it will have bugs that will need worked out. you will have to figure out how many batteries you wanna run, an what size cylinders you are gonna run. there are different things that you will need to do different if you wanna have a truck that hops. compared to a truck that just does f-b-s-s. i hope this helps you in your decision on going to hydros.

yes it does but really all im looking for is a f-b-s-s and 3wheel and that will be good. And also i do realize that hydros have alot of problems to but everyone that I ride around with has hydros so they already know whats going on and with bags I was the only one with them in my town. But yas I do understand what your saying.

if you wanna 3-wheel i would highly suggest boxing you frame in. also bracing the front frame horns.. if not in due time your frame will crack an bend. if you do go to hydros i think you will enjoy it alot more than bags.

i love hydros and yes they can be a pain in the ass and if ur careless with the install it can ride like shit and if you really like ur truck and its ur baby u might not want juice because juice breaks cars/trucks unless ur keepin up on maintnence

what? sounds like your pros and cons are kinda backwards there... assuming a quality install and quality components you shouldnt have problems with either type of system.

But all i have to say about air ride is.. theres never any mess to clean up if the system leaks at all, nor have I never once over the past 5 years had to come home and charge my battery cause it was drained from playing with the switches all night.

Either way ya choose is fine and will be a dependable setup, the most important part though is the quality of install.
