I Been working on a 62 ford for a while, got it running w/ a tuned port chevy 350  with the front clip from a 98 silverado my qus. is, if the truck is to heavy to put accumalator for all for corner let me add I also have three yellow top heavy duties batt's on it. Any advice will be apreciated THANXS

The truck is not too heavy for the accumulators - they'll just need to be set at a higher charge to copensate and 3 yellow tops would be perfect.  Contact Aaron at Hydroholics and get a setup from him - you'll be glad you did.

yup, what Derek said. As long as you can lift the weight of the truck, you can dampen it with with a properly tuned accumulator setup. In the grand scheme of things, we're using the same sort of ideas that heavy equipment like diggers and earth movers use, just on a smaller scale and applied in a different way.. That's the great thing about hydraulics! There's no object too big. Just get a bigger pump and apply more power
