[QUOTE="cobra gt 07, post: 11158586, member: 102136"] I am having QA1 Double Adjustable Shocks put on in the rear of the Shelby tomorrow, along with QA1 springs. This will be my first time ever having an adjustable shock, and my front suspension will remain stock for now. I searched the forum tonight, but oddly, it doesn't seem like the search feature picks up "QA1." I have run across a few posts tonight about different compression and rebound settings, but nothing consistent. Probably has something to do with every car being different. I have seen discussions of running 2 clicks of of full compression on a Strange double adjustable shock, and 3 clicks of of stiff on rebound. Also seen another talk about 4 on compression and 7 on rebound for the DA QA1's, and so on... Does anyone have any tips for the initial settings on these QA1 DA shocks on a 4,000 pound car? There are over 300 potential combinations, with 18 adjustments available for rebound and 18 adjustments for compression. My 60 foots on stock shocks were in the low to mid 1.6's (with my best every being a 1.589), and I want to get into the 1.4 range on a consistent basis. What settings should I start out with, and depending on the results on the first run, which mild tweaks and directions should I be adjusting the rebound and compression settings on the shocks? Any help would be appreciated :) [/QUOTE]
