Default QA1's Blew Out....Now What Do I Do?

So I was driving this evening and my QA1 R series blew out on my front driver side. It ripped out of the frame and now I'm stuck. I've heard of people having them rebuilt. How do I go about doing that? Do I go through QA1 or just any hydraulic shop? What if just QA1, what is their contact information. Please let me know. I need to get my car back on the road, it's my daily....

Hello, QA1 has authorized service centers in different parts of the country. Contact them and they will tell you where to send them. QA1's number is 1-800-721-7761. How long ago did you purchase the shocks? The R series shock have the race valving, not too good for street use.

Thanks for the information....and I bought them from a member of this forum. I gunna end up sending them out to get rebuilt. I guess I'll have to put the stocks back on it for now

Its not usually too expensive to have them fixed the turnaround should be pretty quick.

Depending on what all needs to be done with it....$90 on up for one shock. I had 2 bent shafts replaced, re-valved, resealed and it cost me over $200 for both with shipping.
