QA1 8Q6-DRY-6PK 8Q Series Small Body Dry Shock Six Pack Twin Tube 6in Stroke Coilover

The QA1 8Q6-DRY-6PK is a six-pack of small-body aluminum dry shock components designed for circle track and racing applications. Part of QA1's 8Q Series — formerly known as the 82 Series — these twin-tube coilover shocks deliver the performance, consistency, and tunability that serious racers demand in a compact small-body format.

Each six-pack includes the parts needed to build six complete shocks, offering a cost-effective solution for teams running custom valvings. The 8Q6-DRY-6PK features a 6-inch stroke and a 11.63-inch compressed length, making it well-suited for a variety of coilover configurations. The threaded body integrates easily with QA1 coilover kits (sold separately).

Key Features:

• Small-body aluminum construction — compact outside diameter is ideal for lightweight classes or tight-clearance applications
• Twin-tube, dry, linear design — consistent, predictable damping characteristics
• Rebuildable and re-valvable — shocks can be rebuilt and re-valved in minutes using basic tools and available QA1 rebuild kits
• Two-piece body — simplifies disassembly and reassembly at the track or in the shop
• Hyper screw port gland with relief cuts — makes filling and bleeding easy during assembly
• Upgraded seals — minimize leaks, especially in high-rebound applications
• Slip-fit compression tube — further simplifies the rebuild process
• Scalloped base loop — increases clearance in tight areas such as upper control arms and shock mounts
• Raw aluminum pistons — maximize consistency across all six shocks
• Bleed shim or drilled bleed valving — supports a wide range of tuning approaches
• Laser-engraved, black-anodized closure nut — serial numbers and valving information are easy to read at the track
• Six-pack includes: gas bags, seal packs, pistons, piston rods, and more (bleed shims not included — tuning kit required separately)

The 8Q Series is available in 3 through 9-inch stroke lengths to meet a variety of rules and application requirements. Whether you're outfitting a full race team or building custom valvings for a specific setup, the QA1 8Q6-DRY-6PK provides the reliability, tunability, and durability expected from QA1 precision racing components.
