Just wondering if any of you guys have any neg. things to say about the QA1 shocks. I was told they give a better ride than the blistens. Anyone have exp. with these shocks???

I am running the QA1 coilovers on the front of my Hunter Cobra. They are real nice with a pretty compliant ride for a Cobra. I am thinking of upgrading the rear shocks(Hunters use a shortened 'glass Vette ltransverse leaf spring in the rear) to QA1 shocks. Right now I have Gabriel Gas Shocks ment for a Vette.

They also offer a adjustable Coilover but I did not spend the extra money and I am happy with the stock QA1 coilover with 350# rate springs.

P.S. The Hunter has front and rear sway bars so you do not need extra heavy springs to get flat cornering.

The HAL QA1 is used in all our cars. The resin is the adjustabilty and durability. They can be adjusted for dampening and rebound. A little pricey but well worth it.
