I learned yesterday that they now have made some improvements to the latest shocks to make the ride more compliant. Too late now! The Speedtech stuff is well made and I have no complaints on the quality of their product. The QA1's were the biggest issue for me. I loved them when I put them in, but the ride is just too darn rough and it got a bit old for me over the last year. Maybe i am getting old or something.

I just wanted to Expand on this. Not burning the OP
The control arms will not make the ride HARSH,( you may experience more road noise and feel) The QA1 shocks in the past year or so have re valved their shocks to soften them up. The Ridetech have MORE adjustment than the QA1 for sure and better valving to start with.
With our Chicane coil over conversion you can easily convert from the QA1 coil over conversion to the Ridetech, Viking, or any other shock that uses a 1.25 wide x 1/2" upper bearing and T bar lower mount.
Just so you know.
