Best way I found to simulate Hydraulics on a bit is do a Zip Zap full wheel conversion. When you take a turn the front tires rub which lifts the body and lowers the chassis making it look like it's bumpin in da ghetto. Not the answer some may be looking for, but the simplest answers can somtimes creat the best solutions. Or you could minaturize a hydraulic pump add another PCB and battery to power it then throw your busted hunk of crap in the toilet.... yeah so basically this topic never intrested me, but if my 1st answer gets your jimmy cranked, Yay you!

Nah, too big.

You could use a servo or two. Connect the body to the servo and move it up and down like the steering motor moves the wheels left and right in a ZZSE.
