QA1 2788M-DRY 27 Series Monotube Shock Absorber 12.8" Compressed / 21.38" Extended Stud/Poly Mount

The QA1 2788M-DRY is part of the 27 Series — QA1's stock-mount monotube shock line designed as a high-performance upgrade for street and performance applications. With a 12.8-inch compressed length and 21.38-inch extended length, this shock features a stud upper mount and polyurethane lower bushing for easy, direct-fit installation.

Built on the proven platform of QA1's 26 Series, the 27 Series improves upon the design with a zinc-plated steel body for corrosion resistance and a 46mm hard-anodized aluminum piston for enhanced durability and reduced friction. The M-Dry designation indicates this shock is supplied dry (unvalved), allowing builders and tuners to select from QA1's wide range of valving options to precisely tune the shock for their specific application and driving style.

Key Features:

• 27 Series stock-mount monotube design — direct replacement form factor with performance monotube internals
• 46mm hard-anodized piston — reduces friction and improves wear resistance
• Zinc-plated steel body — resists corrosion in street and track environments
• Compressed length: 12.8 inches
• Extended length: 21.38 inches
• Stud upper / polyurethane lower bushing mounting — bolt-in fitment
• M-Dry configuration — supplied without valving for custom tuning with QA1 valving kits
• Compatible with QA1's full range of replacement valving options for custom spring rates and damping curves

The QA1 27 Series M-Dry shock is the ideal choice for performance builders who want total control over shock valving. Pair with QA1 valving kits to dial in compression and rebound characteristics for your specific vehicle weight, spring rate, and driving conditions.
