RJ Hydraulics customizes classics cars to create the ultimate ride

RJ Hydraulics creates custom lowrider car builds, focusing mostly on classic automobiles.

Located in Newark, California, the shop is owned and operated by Rubin Diaz. Diaz proclaims that there are two types of lowrider cars: hoppers and cruisers. While most lowrider cars used their hydraulic systems to hop, Diaz's builds are designed for cruising.

"Some are striving to go high. Some are striving to go low. And thats where we come in," Diaz said.

In addition to creating a smooth ride, Diaz's hydraulics are designed to match the style and history of the classic cars he is installing them in.

"We like to get a little artistic with it and definitely do an art deco inspired style. It is definitely made and designed to kind of fit the style of the car," Diaz said.

They are called lowriders for a reason, as some of these cars can sit directly on the ground.

"My first question is how low do you want to go? You know if they want the car on the ground that always costs more," Diaz said.

Lowriding is a community of people who share a passion for classic cars and a fun ride, whether you are hopping or cruising.

"I think they are fun cars. They are made for people to go out and have fun in, enjoy their time," Diaz said.
