Re: Ridetech Q Series Shocks

Which part numbers do you recommend for my truck? It's lowered 4.5/6.75. I have the current shock lengths at ride height.

Front is 11 1/4
Rear is 14 1/2

Re: Ridetech Q Series Shocks

Ok so would the stock location on my dropped 72 be OK or should I go with the POL front shock relocation bracket or do you make a bolt on one? What are your recommendations on this matter. If I get the relocation bracket I will have to re measure from eye to eye. Thank you let me know I am ready to proceed.

With those measurements I would use a 22149841 on the front and a 22169841 on the rear.

If you are using a spring drop then I think using a relocation bracket would be a good idea. This will increase your available shock travel.

Why the 22149841 for the front? That would only allow for 1.1" of compression. Wouldn't the 22139841 give me a better range?

Who knows what I was thinking or not thinking yesterday. You definitely want to use the 22139841 if you have an 11.25 Ride Height.

Re: Ridetech Q Series Shocks

Any reviews on the RQ?

I m trying to decided if they are worth the extra money over a KYB or other drop shock?

Re: Ridetech Q Series Shocks

Coursey, where at in Kentucky are you located? Stop by our shop in Indiana and I would be happy to give you a ride in some Q Series equipped vehicles. You could experience it for yourself!
