they're hydraulic, pump up to a specified height with car/suspension motion and stay there until the fluid leaks out.

The shocks have nothing external to them, the shock is designed to pump it self up to a certian hight and stay there as part of the internal design, the design also stops the shocks botoming out over big bumps too.

It's not that tricky really, rather simple in design.
