            I guess I'll reach out to qa1 to get these rear upper shock mounts. Doesn't sounds like its gonna be a major deal to put in.

              QA1 probably doesn't sell them and they will have to be welded in, wolfe racecraft does though.

                Well I got the coil ovets yesterday.. looks like they need to be rebuilt. One rear has a seal leaking, and the U-shape mounts on the bottom are missing. I The front coils the rubber mounts are worn too. Looks like I need to find rebuild kits. And send it then off to OC in Ohio.

                  Did you know they needed rebuild before you bought them?

                    x2

                    i thought it was pretty pricy to have them gone through when i called, I got some of the R series QAL HAL shocks and they wanted stupid money to go threw them, ended up selling them... what lb springs did you get for the rears? the fastest f body guys like ray litz, ohio boyz, brian black all run coil overs.. there stuff runs low 7's to so should be good for you! I haven't seen you running around davison at all, you been hiding lol

                          Got ya, what color is your car? i'm sure I've seen it around... I could be wrong, it was like 6 months or so ago when I called to check on the rebuilding of the qal hal's but i'm pretty sure they're out of florida? from what the guy at qal told me is that the hal qal is it's own separate deal from qa1 now and he gave me a phone number and told me to get ahold of the hal shock builder.. or it could be the other way around and qal is out of florida and hal is out of ohio, my memory is toast lol but I do know that qa1 would not rebuld the hal shock and he told me to send it to the hal builder... You will like a coilover set up, it's overkill and will work great from a DD to a 7 sec ride so your going in the right path.
