This review is from: The Science of Hydraulic Suspension (Paperback)

I learned more than I thought there was about lowrider hydraulics. This booked helped me soo much I recommend it to all my friends or any one who asks me questions about hydraulics. I'm soo glad there is finally a good book about hydraulics with as many pictures of parts and wiring as this book.

This book is very in depth and informative. The previous comment must be from hate or maybe jealousy as I have reviewed many parts books and contacted many supply houses for this kind of info with out a clear understanding. Most refered me to this book and I am ever so thankful to them and the writer for making it easy to understand.

The book is a must have if you have a lowrider or thinking of making one! Lots of cool pictures too. And there is a website for the book its highgravity-productions.com good pictures on that site too.

I would give this book a 10 out of 10 for easy to understand and very informative - too bad I didn't write it because I bet it sells very well. Every hydraulic shop I called seem to stock it or talk about it and some sell it real cheap. I found out after I bought it from amazon. (sorry amazon)

Love the pictures. My kids are reading it and can't wait to get a lowrider like daddy. Maybe I'll let them hit switches on my cutty after I quiz them on the book. A really good book I bet the author is making a ton of $$$ from this book. i've never seen anything about hydraulics like this book before.
