That looks like QA1 products just relabled, QA1 is high quality. When I purchased my QA1 shocks they were $900 and it wasn't the coil over kit, so that is a good price. You'll need to modify your lower control arms to allow the adjustor ***** to pass through. T

I have PST's complete front Polygraphite kit on my 70 Road Runner, just to replace old, worn-out stuff. Quality was excellent & technical assistance was also. Good company to deal with. But if you're looking for a race-quality suspension, others here will have plenty of suggestions. Keep in mind that every change comes with a compromise. Stiff, race suspension: harsh ride, etc. Start small & work up to a level you're comfortable with.

@Tim My first think is about the rear spring,I still have the stock one with kayaba at all 4 corner,so I want to put rear composite spring 355lbs +/-,
