Product Details

The QA1 27 Series 27686-8M is a high-performance monotube shock absorber engineered for stock mount applications requiring superior damping control. This shock features a robust zinc-plated steel body construction that provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments.

Key Features:

  • 46mm hard-anodized aluminum piston for enhanced wear resistance and consistent performance
  • Monotube design provides superior heat dissipation and more consistent damping compared to twin-tube shocks
  • Compressed length: 13.35 inches / Extended length: 22.55 inches
  • T-bar upper mount and polyurethane V lower mount for versatile installation options
  • Multiple valving options available to fine-tune damping characteristics for your specific application
  • Zinc-plated body finish resists rust and corrosion while maintaining professional appearance
  • Direct stock mount replacement design for simplified installation

The 27 Series builds on QA1's proven shock absorber technology, delivering race-proven monotube performance in a package designed for street and performance applications. The single-tube design eliminates aeration issues common in twin-tube shocks, providing more consistent damping during extended use and improved handling response.

Great Prices! Have Not Received My Order Yet,But I'm Sure its On its Way!

Recommended by a fellow RegalGS member. Cheaper than Amazon. I haven't had the opportunity to put them on yet, but everything looks good.

My Order shiped next day, best price and best looking product I found on line

Great!

Great service. Item arrived very quickly and in perfect condition. Cheapest place on the net too.

discount codes brought prices down just under competitors with shipping. keep prices down and Ill come back again.

I would definetly order from Autoplicity again. Fast curtious service they had just what I wanted and the prices were the best I could find.

The listing seemed clear and informative. So far so good ;)

Not sure if they overlooked my order but I didn't get my shipping info (3 days after ordered) until I emailed asking for status update. I received a response the following day and all my items ordered came 2 days later...much faster than I had anticipated considering the "delay" or lack thereof (5 days total). Long story short...items are as described, best prices (from what I can researched online for same items/brand) and resonable shipping prices. the selection and brand(s) offered were somewhat limited for my specific needs, otherwise I would've ordered more.
