Default New QA1 F Series Dual Adjustable Front Shocks with Springs

Up for sale is a brand new pair of QA1 "Generation F" dual adjustable front coil over shocks with springs. Part numbers DOE-7855P (shocks) and 15FB275 (springs). Also included are the QA1 thrust washers which greatly reduce the effort to adjust the ride height.

From QA1:
These QA1 GEN-F shocks are machined aluminum, externally adjustable shocks designed specifically for the F-body chassis. The valving adjustment is made with a single **** at the base of the shock (12 settings total), enabling you to adjust to changing track conditions or for ride comfort. GEN-F shocks are completely rebuildable and revalvable for a lifetime of service and customizing.

QA1 Motorsports offers the perfect springs for the 1993-2002 Camaro/Firebird front suspension using the GEN-F front shock. Purposely built with factory and modified small block cars in mind, they're designed to sit on the GEN-F spring seat and fit into the factory location at the top. When used in conjunction with the GEN-F front shock, they're unmatched in ease of installation and performance.

Total price to buy new from Summit is $813.23

I am asking $650 Shipped. Email me at potentz@yahoo.com

The parts are brand new and never used. The only reason I am selling is because the shop who is building my car is now fabricating a Corvette suspension into the front of the car.

Bump,
The reason for the switch to a Corvette front suspension is to get the ride height I am after with the proper suspension geometry and travel.

Thanks

ICRAZY6,
The shocks are actually $350.00 a piece from Speed Inc.

SuperSport4life,

Yes the spring rates are 275lbs.


I have had numerous offers at $600 shipped but I want to get $650 shipped for them. Shipping alone with insurance will probably cost me $30

Thanks
