So I have the qa1 setup on my ws6. The fronts are adjustable but in the rear they just give you shocks. I just need like an inch lower in the rear,isolators are already out. That springs can i get just for the rear?

Our rear springs may be a good option for you. They usually give around 1.25" of drop. but if it ends up being too much, you can add the isolator back in to gain some height back

We normally recommend an adjustable panhard bar with any amount of drop. The factory panhard length is set to have the rear end centered at factorty ride height, and it swings on an arc. So any movement from stock height will push the rear side to side. After lowering the car, stand behind it and compare the outer sidewall of the rear tires to the edge of the wheel well and you will notice it shifted to one side. This can cause pulling, tire wear and instability, and the PHB will be laterally binding against the LCA bushings

Best and by far the simplest thing to do is sell off the QA1 shocks and get into our Viking coil-over complete package. By the time you recoup the money from the shocks you have and then add in the extra you will spend trying to get the ride height you want with whatever spring, you maybe ahead with the coil-over package that is ride height adjustable. The Viking shocks are 19 position double adjustable and come with an industry best 2 year warranty.
