QA1 97-13 Chevy Corvette Front Pro-Coilover Shock Absorber - 8in x 700lb/in - Aluminum Mod Series

Replace your 1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette leaf spring front suspension with QA1 MG455-08700 MOD Series aluminum pro coilover shocks for precise handling tunability and ride height adjustment. These bolt-in units feature 8-inch stroke and 700 lb/in springs to lower base models 1-2 inches or Z06 models 0.5-1.5 inches while using factory mounting points. Nitrogen-charged piggyback canisters fit stock geometry delivering aggressive damping for pro touring or track use with easy street valving changes.

Key Features

  • 4-Way Adjustability: High/low speed compression and rebound plus low-speed bleed tuning refines weight transfer and control in all conditions without shock removal.
  • QuickTune Modular Valve Packs: Dry swap-out valves allow fast revalving without exposing oil to contamination or interrupting the oil path.
  • Aluminum Piggyback Canister: Compact nitrogen-charged design fits tight Corvette geometry boosting heat dissipation and consistent performance.
  • Dyno Tested and Serialized: Every shock undergoes 100% dyno validation for reliable force curves in demanding track environments.
  • Made in USA: Precision-built in Lakeville MN with 700 lb/in medium-firm springs balancing street ride and track stability.

Product Notes

  • Medium spring rate suits daily-driven Corvettes with track days reducing body roll for planted cornering.
  • Firm damping option available separately for pure race setups.
  • Core return not required. new construction only.

Installation Notes

  • Professional installation recommended.
  • Models with electronic ride control need Real Time Damping simulators.
  • Bolt-in design uses factory locations. no toe link relocation kit needed.
