Yes you can I have done it in the past. You need to replace the shocks with servos. One car that works really well for this is the Tamiya TL-01 series of cars. You can use the bumpers as a platform to hold the servos. The one draw back is that if you want to do it cheap you will need two controlers....a 2ch radio to drive the car and then a 4ch radio to work the servos that you use for the hydrolics.....or else a computer controled radio will cost twice as much to get everything working on one radio. But yes this can be done I've built about 50+ TL-01's like this when I worked at a hobby shop about 5 years ago. They were fun but the cars were heavy and not very fast but very cool. If you want to know anything more PM me your email addy and I will send you some pointers and info. Good luck
