Interesting spring tech. Seems totally backwards from what I would of expected

Appreciate the comment - We'll keep the tech videos coming!

Thinking of using QA1 shocks in my 2010 FG XR6 Turbo falcon ute down here in Australia. It weighs 4300lbs so im not sure where id need to be spring rate wise in the front. But it would be good to run some of these other suspension parts in the front also. I don't suppose anyone is engineering anything for us here in that respect for QA1?

We currently do not catalog anything direct but could possibly make a shock or coil-over setup work depending on your specs. You can reach out to our tech team at [e-mail]
