QA1 shocks for rear
Which Qa1 shock for the rear? I have seen TS 403 and TS 508 listed.

It's also available as a semi-coilover.

It looks like 508 is a front shock.

The 508 is not as long and crosses to my application on the Summit website.
I have heard about limiting the extended length so the half shafts cannot bind and break things.

I also have the TS403 single adjustables on my 71'. They work great for me...I adjust them for different uses. The double adjustables are probably better but, the singles are fine for average street cars.

Yes you are correct . What was throwing me off was the Summit site says the 403 shock will not fit my 76.

Pretty much the same suspension when it comes to shocks for all C3's. Just put a set of single adjustable 403's on my '80 this weekend. The max extension was identical to the old Gabriels I pulled off and is within the range that Bair's specifically notes not to exceed when they send a rear end to you.
