No. They're dual acting cylinders. You can put compressed air into either side of the cylinder so it can lift the truck as the cylinder collapses, or as it extends depending on how you setup the rocker arm/bell crank/pivots or whatever.

Exactly. With the airline connected to that side of the cylinder, when you feed it air, it will pull the piston into the cylinder and therefore be pushing down on the axle and raising the truck.

but thats stupid because its removing the travel as the truck is lifted and NEEDS the travel while driving. you catch my flow yo
