    Anybody running QA1 shocks? If so, what do you think? Worth the money? Thanks!

  3. We used them on a 51 Ford truck,34 Chevy coupe and a 32 5w coupe,,

    The multiple adjustable settings are great for dialing in the ride,If your going to use coil over shocks these are the best IMHO. HRP

    I have them on all 3 of my rides, costly but almost endless ride adjustments. I really like the way my cars ride.

    I have used them before and like them. I have found that sometimes the damping on the usual monroes I use is to stiff on the rear of a lightweight car. And having the adjustable damping makes a big difference in ride. If you are doing something pretty light, like a t- bucket, I would buy them. But on something heavier, like steel full bodied car, I wouldnt.

    They have some new shocks out that are 18 point adjustable. I am looking to stop the rebound and thought these might work. $150 each seems pricey but if they work and will last, I guess it might be worth the money

    I put them on a friends 47 Ford coupe, front and rear adjustable, he is happy as hell, said his car never rode so good.

    This is whatI am wanting to put them on. Truck is really low and it hits the bottom of the cross member on the highway. Its not the intial bump in the road thats the problem, its when the truck comes back down. Trying to eliminate that rebound.
