Product Details

The QA1 27A948-3M is a 27 Series stock mount monotube shock absorber engineered for circle track racing on both dirt and asphalt surfaces. Built as a sealed IMCA-legal unit, this shock is compliant with IMCA Southern Sport Mod sanctioning body and track rules, with gas pressure adjustable only by QA1 and QA1 Authorized Rebuilders.

Sharing its proven architecture with QA1's long-trusted 26 Series, the 27 Series brings the same high-performance monotube design into a direct stock mount configuration. A zinc-plated steel body provides excellent corrosion resistance, while the 46mm hard anodized piston delivers consistent, reliable damping performance across a full race season.

This unit features 8-compression / 3-rebound (8C/3R) linear valving, which allows a stable, predictable damping curve — offering complete control of suspension at low shaft speeds without generating extreme forces at high shaft velocities. Linear valving helps the driver feel the car better and maintain a more consistent handling balance throughout the race.

Key Features:

  • Compressed Length: 9.17 in.
  • Extended Length: 14.0 in.
  • Upper Mount: Stud top
  • Lower Mount: T-Bar
  • 46mm hard anodized piston for durability and consistent damping
  • Zinc-plated steel body for corrosion resistance
  • Non-adjustable, gas-charged monotube design
  • Rebuildable construction for long-term serviceability
  • Sealed Hyperscrew gas pressure — IMCA Southern Sport Mod legal
  • Linear valving (8C/3R) for stable, driver-friendly handling
  • Made in the USA

The QA1 27A948-3M is sold individually and is designed for front stock mount racing applications. As a sealed unit, it must be serviced by QA1 or an authorized rebuilder to maintain sanctioning body compliance.

Excellent

easy to use website ... hopefully the ship time is just as quick, as the site is simple

I like your prices on parts and ease of navigating on your site.

Extremely easy and the best price by far.

Quick and easy and nice to have option to use Amazon and Paypal for payment

Great experience

So far so good

After searching Google Shopper for a Thule 45058 roof rack kit, I ran across Autoplicity.com was, by far, the lowest priced vendor for the product - so low that a local retailer offered to take 20% off their MSRP price but it still didn't compete with Autoplicity.com's price. Purchasing was a breeze and I look forward to receiving the rack soon.

So far so good

Excellent price on name brand items, best prices for Bosch oxygen sensors.
