Re: i want to sitt 3 wheel

3 pump would be best IMO, for standing 3

you want to be able to lift both front and 1 rear.

My dime couldn't lower one side individually without weight or force on that corner. thats why turning helps.

to see if your weight is distributed properly try having someone push down on the desired corner, while lowering that corner. Once its 3'd it should stay. If it falls you need more weight.

Best link setup IMO would be a wishbone 3 link with a heims joint on the wishbone

Re: i want to sitt 3 wheel

Re: i want to sitt 3 wheel

a chain bridge will def get more lift out of a system for standing 3... make your chain 2-3 inches shorter than your cyls. when you fully extend your cyl on one side it will push the other side down. (its a fulcrum effect) this is alot better than extra weight or super long cyls. using johnny joints or super pivots will help more than using poly bushings.

Re: i want to sitt 3 wheel

all you need to do is use 4 dumps on the rear pump and wire it accordingly... the single pump will then act like 2 pumps.

Re: i want to sitt 3 wheel

Best way would be a do a rear 4-link and add a third pump. Do a chain bridge.

agreed with ^^.two pumps to the back, chains should be about half the length of your cylinders.

Re: i want to sitt 3 wheel

the accord is my buddies his set up was 4 pump 4 batt's he changed to 1 pump 4 batt's no chains. he built his own controll arms in the rear for a gangster three wheel.
the blue car is just a reg two pump four batt set up from cce. both cars are ran with accumulators no springs.

Ive heard alot of bad talk about super pivots, like the truck will ride all wobbly, etc... i havent done any setups with them, but curious how they ride...

how much of a difference are super pivots gonna make vs plain bushings on a hydro setup? (so far ideal is cando s-10 fwd 4 link, 12in rear cyl, coil overs, chain shorter than cyl)

theres nothing wrong with superpivots.. if the suspension is setup properly, its not going to wobble.. the only reason to use superpivots is if you wanna do side to side without destroying normal bushings
