The QA1 5Q Series Stock Mount Shocks (formerly the 53 Series) is one of the most popular shocks on the market. Options with smaller compressed front lengths are offered for racers who want extra compression travel. The twin tube design provides excellent feel of all four tires and exceptional traction on even the slickest tracks. Whether you need stiff rebound for asphalt applications or an easy-up for dirt tracks, look to the 5Q Series for premium performance.

Small details add up to provide great overall performance. The black zinc coating ensures a very consistent finish, creating a tight seal every time. The scalloped base loop increases clearances in tight areas like upper control arms and shock mounts. Pistons are made of high-quality raw aluminum, minimizing variations that can be found in anodized parts. You can valve the shock with bleed shims or drill out bleeds to maximize tunability.

  • 5Q shocks can be re-valved and rebuilt by racers in a matter of minutes using basic tools
  • Two-piece bodies make it simple to disassemble and reassemble shocks
  • The gland features relief cuts and a hyper screw port, making shocks easy to fill and bleed on assembly.
  • An upgraded seal kit minimizes leaks—especially in high-rebound applications
  • The compression tube uses a slip fit design to simplify the rebuild process
  • 5Q shocks utilize a laser-engraved, black-anodized closure nut to make serial numbers and valving easy to read at the track or in the shop

QA1’s steel body shocks can be used in coil-over configurations using the appropriate kits (sold separately). Racers can rebuild and re-valve their own shocks using available tuning and rebuild kits.
