Hydraulic Lift System on Lamborghini Murcielago - Jimmy540i.com

[MuF123]

is the suspension still fully working even when it is in the highest position?

same question for the fully lowered position - does it have any travel left?

I'm just curious about this setup, thank you!

it s like hydrolik system incitroen cars :)

lambos do that stock

[Paulwander]

Would be useful for London roads, lol

[buddiboi]

they seem like air bags n shyt

2slow no point

[MyHairBear]

@darbz808 its not for looks. its for bad terrain so the car wont get damaged.

That is extremely useful if you're driving around regular city streets, you never know where you'll be stuck having to exit somewhere with a dip that would otherwise pwn a supercar.

hey does the car have to be still to raise/lower or can it be moving?

[iTzLuPo]

it can move

finally some1 shows it in detail this has to be the most forgotten feature of the murcielago

[smokytyrz]

@omarfosho2 That is because it is most often the most broken feature. :-) The lift system and the Koni shocks are the most fragile components of the Murci. Hopefully the successor will be lighter, with modern suspension (eg. if they want to carry over adjustable damping, use electrorheological (ER) and magnetorheological (MR) instead of a servo-controlled Koni).Then use two-shocks per front wheel as in the rear. Airbags would be better for the lift except for the air tank and pump complexity.

[omarfosho2]

@smokytyrz O wow thanx for the educated response, and i was wondering why they didnt go with airbags but your right the compessors and tank gets in the way, and thats besides the point that airbag compressors always seem to fail no matter who makes them

[smokytyrz]

@omarfosho2 Complexity is what it is. Currently the Murc uses a seemingly genius yet mechanically flawed system where they "borrow" power steering fluid and use it to pump the front shocks via a dedicated reservoir (1500psi when lifted!!). Problem is, the seals cannot take the pressure, the Koni's don't like being pumped up, and with only one-shock per wheel up front they cannot handle the weight. It's a great idea, just poorly executed.

Make it bounce!
