I recently went to a QA1 coilover set up on the fron of my Turbo Regal.
I did the installation but I think I pulled a bone head move. The reason i say this was because the install was somewhat challenging and nothing like my Eclipse.
I am wondering what others going this route experienced? The challenge I had was lining the shock's top mount into the mounting perch. I had to jack the lower control arm up while watching the top mounting point to make sure it would go through the hole.
Now I think my bone head move was simply that the shock rod could have been exteneded more, in other words I took it straight out of the box and mounted while they probably compressed it to ship it.
I am asking specifically because I just purchased a poly set of bushings for upper and lower and I am trying to determine whether i want to disassemble and take to the shop to have the old busings pressed out and the new ones pressed in. Or should I simply drop the car off.
