Thank you for showing and posting this video. I have installed hydraulic suspension set ups in both cars and trucks. Everything that I have done and learned was done by trial and error on my own rides. I have seen and used or built chain set ups but I was originally taught that the reason behind the chain was to limit how far the cylinder could go. I was told it was done to make sure that the cylinder couldn't over extend so it couldn't lock the cylinder in a fully extended position or worse, having the cylinder go far enough to fall apart because the part of the cylinder that moves in and out would be pushed out causing the ram to be pushed out of the tube, not sure if I'm making sense. I've never seen it happen but was told that it could happen without having the chain in place to make sure the cylinders couldn't over extend. Your explanation makes quite a bit more sense and I understand how it makes it easier to 3 wheel.
Hey man I seriously appreciate this video I've watched it 3 times already might not be the last. letting the info soak in and marinate. But how thick of gauge did you use on the bridge? What tall are you cylinders? And what Gauge is the chain? how long is the chain compared to your cylinders? the height of your cylinders yielded you how high of a 3 wheel? What kit/ manufacturer are you using?
I used to make that exact same drawing in 10th grade geometry class. I'd be using rulers and protractors to figure out my setup. My teacher was upset that I was doing it in class until I explained what it was and that her class was helping me figure it out. Def payed off 2 yrs later when I got my Cadillac
Great video buddy...I just got my first lowrider about a month ago - 93' Caddy Fleetwood. Been doing major work to it. I'll post videos on my setup shortly. Thanks for the behind the scenes/how it works video. I've noticed there aren't a lot of them on TH-cam like it's some sort of close kept secret Like how magicians are...LOL.
Dude this video was awesome i been waiting forever to find videos with actual information and advice about lowriders. Thank you bro please keep making informative videos this was badass! I look forward to starting my own build i will definitely be looking to you for advice!
RJ!!!! Thank you for making these videos dude! You're funny, give a bunch of legit information and most of all show video of your work. Most people just make a video of their vehicle hitting switches and don't go into detail of what they have done. I want to build a 2000 Lincoln towncar and feel a lot more confident in building a chain bridge now. So much info in these videos. Thanks a lot man.
I thought of 3wheeling a Regal in a music video and on stage doing a show and video I know not to now thanks dude you is a accident saver for real for real
Well it's similar to the limit straps we used in our four-wheel drives, so it did not overextend the shocks, similar situation here so it does not overload or overextend the hydraulics it's a very useful and very smart safety item
In 91 I had a candy green 64 Impala only had two pumps. Front back side to side so one day I got the idea of putting a lot of weight on one corner of the car in the trunk. I picked my car on all four I dropped the right side I picked up the front all the weight on the rear cause my left side to go up I was three Wheeling on 2 pumps
Thank you for that video That explains a lot about chain bridges and what the chain's really do because I didn't understand it at 1st...I got a low rider regal and I wanna do a power 3 and I was thinking about just getting 14 inch cylinders and go for what I know but...that's a better Option
Manny Fresh thanks. I'll get some more when all the stars align lol time, family, and weather need to line up in perfect harmony haha it's pretty rare right now.
That's a great public service announcement I think the same way about people being under their cars with hydraulics it's a stupid decision and a quick accident if it does occur.. I've had my whole rear end drop to the ground cuz one of the tops of the cylinders burst there's no way you could get away from that..
I used 8 dumps to do 3 wheel it was simple to do for the wiring to the dumps I used diodes from the pump dump to the solenoid instead of a relay so it worked allot faster.
Right on homeboy😎👍I never understood the concept till I saw your video...if you will clear another doubt for me...at what voltage should a frame be reinforced if it's way thiner metal to thick metal?🤔
If you have tall enough cylinders in a town car you don’t need chains, and can do a standing 3 with just 2 pumps and 6 batts. The homie has a 96 and a crazy high lock up, no chains, as soon as he dumps one of those back corners, ass hits the floor and he’s standing a huge 3 wheel.
I have three pumps one double piston pump and two regular pumps how do I setup my double piston to the front and the other two to the back.. how many dumps do I need as while as batteries for front back side to side and 3 wheel motion
Hey RJ. I am looking at picking up a 96 town car soon. I had seen that a 2 pump with multiple dumps can be used for 3 wheeling. I noticed you said 3 wheeling can be done in motion but not on a stand still, due to the lack of weight in the back. With a 2 pump set up, do you think it may be possible to stand 3 wheel if the batteries were mounted as far back and into the corner as possible, or would it still not be possible due to the lack of leverage? Thanks.
Ronnie Rowe you would need two dumps on each cylinder so you would need 4 dumps on the rear. One dump would act like a shut off valve and and hold pressure from going to both cylinder. Way more complicated than just running a third pump. Looks goofy too.
Good question. I wondering the same. Definitely quieter then chains. But maybe harder to figure out the length you need..compared to chains just move a link. Haven't seen it yet got to try i guess
now this is my favorite vide on how to,,,,love it ,,,..can you help me I got some issues with one of my tuck tire ,can I msg you some pic on fb so you can see what im taking about,
You can't standing three on less than three pumps only because of fluid not because of control of the two different corners he also forgot some people run a pumpkin chains instead of outer chains
hunterdep1 actually has Nothing to do with fluid. And has everything to do with controlling rear cylinders individually. Unless you have an x frame or a ton of weight in one corner you need to be able to control your rear cylinders independently from each other. You can run chains wherever you want. But 80 percent of chained set up today are like this.
I have 1997 Lincoln 2 pumps 6 batteries 8’s front 12’s rear no bridge or extra weight and I can sit a 3 wheel how 🤷🏽♂️ even the homie who built my car doesn’t know why
Bro I need contact info to this brother he has alot of knowledge can somebody out there help me or Rj tickler send me info on how to link up with you need a Lincoln built
What have you man where are your little brother video is it what are you doing it for you your videos what’s going on man you’re right and safe out there or your car payment your car payments shop
I guess if u 3 wheel in Iowa your a thug wtf ??? Well a lowrider in Iowa is probably hella different maybe not as much in 2022 but in the 90's u got pulled over next to a corn 🌽 field
15 by 8's sticking out lol I heard yrs back chains are for dogs not for your lowrider so u can 3 wheel without chains ⛓️ not saying nothing bad about the video or anything just telling A old lowrider short story lol

I have always seen chains but never new the true reason for them. So cool. I need to get started on my 63 soon.
x frames dont need a chain bridge, or even 3 pumps for that matter
RJ Tickler, great video of your ride sir. Really enjoyed this video and describing how the chains work along with the cylinders. Thank you sir

I enjoyed the lesson..Thank-you i really like your videos
Low low aren't common here in west palm beach fla. So i know im gonna stand out
You should make a DVD
Great video bro very informative when you gonna get us some more cruising footage.
Manny Fresh thanks. I'll get some more when all the stars align lol time, family, and weather need to line up in perfect harmony haha it's pretty rare right now.
If you have a couple of extra dumps laying around you can also 3 wheel with 2 pumps & 6 dumps...
Great video RJ. Got my shirts on Saturday thanks a lot keep making them cool videos
“Tack weld some chains to your” 🤣 you know some fool out there ridin round like that.
That's a great public service announcement I think the same way about people being under their cars with hydraulics it's a stupid decision and a quick accident if it does occur.. I've had my whole rear end drop to the ground cuz one of the tops of the cylinders burst there's no way you could get away from that..
Thanks for explaining the bridge I’m going with 3 pumps now
I used 8 dumps to do 3 wheel it was simple to do for the wiring to the dumps I used diodes from the pump dump to the solenoid instead of a relay so it worked allot faster.
Good video I'm prepping my rear end for a bridge now
Intristing how did you get
Into Chicano style cars.
Hey that 🐭 he wanted to see hop hop lol nice video bro
Great video homie
Thanks bro for the insight.
I have myself a 97 Lincoln town car, all stock...hopefully to put hydraulics one day but people charge alot here in Cali...
Right on homeboy😎👍I never understood the concept till I saw your video...if you will clear another doubt for me...at what voltage should a frame be reinforced if it's way thiner metal to thick metal?🤔

Good vid. Very informative
I came here to judge. Order in court!
Now need to make a video showing how to 3 wheel while driving that's straight up gangsta lol.
What are the best chains and bolts to use
I have three pumps one double piston pump and two regular pumps how do I setup my double piston to the front and the other two to the back.. how many dumps do I need as while as batteries for front back side to side and 3 wheel motion
THANK U . TEACHER! 😆
Nice video I just learn to 3 wheel my rc
What's your feelings on Lead hammers 🤔 for knock offs ?🤔
Ray B they work great. So does a dead blow
What size are those tires on the drawing 😆😂😆 not 5.20's lmao but I've seen a few videos and he gets down keep doing your thing big dog 🙏
I agree tickler I never put chain cause will pull ruin chain destory
**1st DUDE IN LOWRIDER HISTORY TO ADMIT HE HAS WEIGHT** 🤣
Good video bro
How thick of metal did u use for ur chain bridge
Good video
So they're basically just a suspension travel limiter?
Hey RJ what size cylinders do you currently have in this point in time. Thanks
I don’t that the car anymore. But have a different Lincoln with 12s that three wheels nice. 14s work good too but really need a slip yoke for that.
No one has a lowrider here in Ethiopia. So i'm trying to build one out of a wheelbarrow and some corn husks
Looks like you removed the drop mounts I was wondering why
Can't wait till i get my first low-low😳😳😳😳😳
very informative

Thanks.
Anthony Guevara it’s still not possible. Or worth it really. A third pump is about 350 bucks.
If you have a 2 pump setup with 2 dumps to the rear couldn't you just hold one dump switch while bumping the "up" switch and 3 wheel?
Ronnie Rowe you would need two dumps on each cylinder so you would need 4 dumps on the rear. One dump would act like a shut off valve and and hold pressure from going to both cylinder. Way more complicated than just running a third pump. Looks goofy too.
@@RJTickler thanks for info man. Love the videos
How much would you say supplies cost ? Also does anyone ever use cable instead of chain ?
Good question. I wondering the same. Definitely quieter then chains. But maybe harder to figure out the length you need..compared to chains just move a link. Haven't seen it yet got to try i guess
Возможно ли на 3 wheel кинуть автомобиль как у тебя ,только с 2 насосами ?
I was thinkin of makin the same video,,, u beat me to it :/
And thats a big fuckin light bulb in your garage door opener
fuzzy wuzzy haha yeah it's a big barn light 400 watt metal halide, when I turn it on it looks like Jesus is in my garage.
"Your officially a thug" lol cant wait for my ride to 3
Love it bruh good sh&t
How much in materials did this cost? in steel?
probably around 50 bucks, i had everything laying around so i couldn't say for sure.
Get 2.5 or 3 ton springs
True facts
Officially a thug at this point, I love it.
Automatic thug Qualification
now this is my favorite vide on how to,,,,love it ,,,..can you help me I got some issues with one of my tuck tire ,can I msg you some pic on fb so you can see what im taking about,
guadalahustler sure no problem.
Lmao cadillacs are the long in trunk aswell, I just reinforced the purches cause I think bridges are ugly
YA BOI MA yeah a lot of Cadillac guys I've noticed run then all the way inside the trunk. But on most cars you can never see the bridge.

Weird I've done this with two pumps humm
Modesto Dejesus you can three wheel with two pumps. No problem. You just can’t power three with two pumps.
