I’m thinking about getting some double adjustable qa1 rear shocks for my s10 for autox/circuit style driving and the truck is quite low, I was even thinking about c notching the frame soon and lowering it further to get the center of gravity down more. My question is will these shocks allow me to lower it any more or will it bottom out the shock too soon? Your help would be greatly appreciated!
I have a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 RCSB RWD and am interested in the Front Pro Coil Shock as well as a rear shock that will hopefully allow for an ultra smooth and forgiving ride. The truck is my daily driver and mostly stock. I understand the benefit of having double adjustable shocks all the way around but is it worth the extra cost for my setup and goal? I don't need performance... I just want the smoothest ride possible. Should I just go with the single adjustable and crank the knob all the way to the left? It would also be great to get a video from you guys to explain how different settings on the double adjustable shocks would perform. Like, what if you set the compression knob all the way to the left and the rebound knob all the way to the right? What would that ride be like?
If you are just looking to improve your daily driver and have a better ride, the single adjustable shocks will definitely get the job done. We recommend slowly playing with adjustments and doing some test drives to find the right mix of compression and rebound.
Another question; where both of those coil-over shocks.? I need help pickin the correct shocks for my stock 57 chevy 210. Single adjustible,.. not sure about weight 350 or 450 thats confusing. And should front shocks be coil over and rear shocks be non coil over. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ideally the part number, or link, so i could order it easier. Thanks again
I purchased a set of single adjustable QA1 brand new coil overs for my 67 mustang from cj pony parts. after about 50 miles or so I have noticed residue on the top part of the shock where the cylinder slides up and down. is this normal with new shocks out of the box?, i have wiped them and cleaned them and noticed after driving the car again im seeing slight residue its not like a leak where i see oil dropping down onto the ground, but just a mist of residue?. can anyone let me know this is correct?. id hate to have to take apart my front end again
A little residue is no issue! Generally a small portion of lubrication will make it past the dust seal on the top end and attract dust or other particulates. this is no way affects the performance of the shock and all internal components are protected from the particulates. Only an issue if leaking were prevalent.
I will be driving this summer enjoying the QA1 shots at the track and on the street big rim racing
Awesome! We appreciate you working with us!
just put on your QA1 suspension on my 67 Chevelle might have to finish it off with some QA1 shocks im thinkin!!
They are a great upgrade!
Seconded. I run their double adjustable shocks on my 69 C10. Night and day ride quality when adding front and rear sway bars.

Goood job:). Do not waste your time - 'promosm' !!!
Thanks for checking out the video!
Can i adjust this shock to the ride height i want in the rear
Our coil-over shock setups allow you to adjust your ride height. Our Stocker Stars which are non-coil-over shocks do not adjust ride height.
