Default suspension buffs qa1 shocks?

as far as i know there isnt a application available for them for our cars but im thinking of a pushrod/pullrod setup so i can tub the rear for much larger tires without crazy body kits and the like, still in the planning stages since i need to order the stuff for the cage still if i do this but just wondering on opinions if anyone used them on previous cars, although i expect limited knowledge on here.

price is pretty good too, $250 for double adjustable shocks with threaded bodys

edit: of course im not looking for moton style performance but if they are roughly equal to say kw or bilstein it would be nice.

Custom catilever suspension, that is one hell of a project. Also post a link to the shocks you want.

They will need to be valved to the motion ratio you decide on with the work you do

is what i was looking at they are a "drag and street" shock so like i said not expecting results like motons, but since im going to have to order them and work with them for the valving and they are double adjustable i would imagine they would work well for just about anything depending on quality.

i have 2 designs in mind, trunk mount with pushrod or undercar mount(roughly where stock muffler mounts) and pullrod setup, figuring something out for frame rails atm thinking standard box tubing is going to be the way to go, not sure how comfortable i am welding round tubing to the unibody/subframe under the car but its still in the planning stage just have the rough designs atm figuring frame rail solution atm then need to do the math.

i like to tinker so this is fun for me lol, gotta see what the army is doing with me before i start, if i do it here i gotta hide it from housing
