Quick update. I got the shocks installed on Friday after work. Quality on these are top notch. One thing I will tell you is the upper shock bolt is a pain in the a** to get to. Total install time was about 2 1/2hrs because of those bolts. I ran into a problem, QA1 supplies metal sleeves that slide into the bushings but were slightly short so they were not making contact with the frame so once installed they were going to have some side to side movement which I didn't like. I already had everything taken apart so I took the bushings off the old Belltech shocks so I can take off the sleeves that they had on and come to find out the sleeves and the bushings from those shocks were glued. I then stripped the bushing with a sharp knife and used my Dremel with a sanding bit to get the rest of the rubber off in order to slide them on to the new shock bushings. With a little bit of grease they went on with no problems. I got everything installed and tighten up and set them up at 12 clicks. I took it for a quick spin WHAT A DIFFEERENCE! It felt a lot smoother. I only took 2 Pics during the install, I will post them up later.
