Question QA1's?

I am building my 98 camaro ss as a street strip car. What is the difference between the QA1 Front 12-way Adjustable Shock and the QA1 Front Double-Adjustable Shock?

Thank you.

A double adjustable shock gives you more control over adjusting and "tuning" the suspension.. A single adjustable shock is typically adjustable in only one direction (rebound or extension)

A double adjustable shock allows compression (bump) and rebound (extension) to be adjusted with two different *****..

6 speed cars Iv always heard and suggest a double adj. for the rears, the rear tires and they try to unload!

i agree with the previous post, they give much more adjustability. but i keep hearing that qa1's arent as good as they used to be, strange seems to be the drag shock to have on a budget. its what i run and couldnt be happier.

Hello
Like mentioned above the single adjustable are the 12way. And they have 12 setting pre valved in them for compression and rebound. And the double adjustable give you 100's of different settings for your suspension. They allow you to not only adjust the compression but also the rebound. The double adjustable s are great when you have a car running in the single digits and you are looking for the extra tuning function. Below is a link to show you what all UMI Performance has to offer!

If you have any other questions feel free to ask!
Thanks
