Default Front shocks?
I recently bought the QA1 single adjustable shocks for the rear and I know theres shocks out there better, but curious of other brands reasonably priced that work well on these LS1 cars? considering something cheaper for the front, or just stick with the QA1s?

not trying to spend a fortune.....lol

Strange singles are probably your best bet. The sell for $149.50 each plus $120.00 for the springs. Give me a call and we can discuss options.

If you are on a budget and looking for a decent front drag shock setup this is definitely the direction to go.

If you are looking for best value then the Strange and Viking shocks will be the way to go. Viking is new on the market and have so far proven to be a great shock for the cost. Has 18 way double adjustable valving, high quality finish, and a industry best 2 year warranty. Give us a call!
