For any of you wondering about single adjustable fronts, TheFunk cuts low 1.50's and high 1.40's and his truck launches beautifully with singles all around.

Its a good idea, Charles. Adjustable shocks up front do help. If you can make the coilovers work, you'd kill two birds with that one idea.

How have the QA1's been holding up,do they have to be rebuilt often?

Also on the single adjustment QA1's can the rebound be set to be very slow?

I work right behind a machine shop. Is the QA1 bushing thick enough that I could just have the machine shop bore the hold to 14mm?

I went ahead and ordered double adjustable fronts and single adjustable rears along with the proper bushings. I plan on installing them this week but wondered if anyone had a baseline setting for street driving?

I run the rear singles on about 4-6 clicks from soft. They can get really stiff feeling if much higher. Set all the way hard, makes it feel like a log truck. The front doubles, I used to run around 10 clicks from soft compression and around 12 clicks from soft rebound.
