Re: '66 Budget friendly driver

Well today the ol 66 arrived at the QA1 headquarters in Minneapolis! Dirty ass hell!

The team there is going to install their all new full coil over suspension. I'll update pictures along the way.

QA1 will also be filming the entire install for thier how-to-video.

I'm really stoked. The products QA1 puts out are the best. Period. Go to thier website and check it out.

Re: '66 Budget friendly driver

I just watched the episode of Hot Rod Garage where they installed QA1's coil over kit front and rear. Is that what they are putting on your truck?

Karl, I haven't seen the episode, but I remember seeing a picture or something of it. So, yes I believe it is the same kit.

Re: '66 Budget friendly driver

Got everything installed. Looks like it will ride about and inch lower! Perfect! QA1 will go back through and check all of the bolts etc. And then take it for a spin. I should have it back in Colorado in a couple weeks. I went ahead and bought a power brake booster from Performance Online, so i will install that and some new brake lines then. Should be a fun little driver! What do yall think?
