Budget-friendly monotube shock with advanced corrosion resistance and performance features.
The QA1 26 Series Coil Over Shock Absorber is engineered for performance and durability, making it a competitive choice in the shock absorber market. This monotube shock features a one-piece steel body with an electroless nickel plating that provides exceptional corrosion resistance and a smooth internal finish, ensuring consistent performance throughout its lifespan. The shock is designed with number 7 compression and rebound linear valving, allowing for precise tuning and control of suspension dynamics.
With an extended height of 24.7 inches and a compressed height of 15.7 inches, this shock absorber is adjustable to meet various ride height requirements. The deflective disc valving system enhances control at low shaft speeds while minimizing extreme forces at high velocities, making it suitable for a range of driving conditions. Additionally, the shock can be mounted upside down without affecting its performance, contributing to reduced unsprung weight.
The QA1 26 Series is also racer revalveable and rebuildable, providing unparalleled repeatability for those who demand high performance from their suspension systems. The use of a premium proprietary blend of oil prevents fade, ensuring reliable operation under demanding conditions. This shock absorber is sold as a single unit and requires the use of part number CK5007 for complete installation.
