QA1 or RideTech???
I am considering the QA1 Level 2 Big Wheel set up or the RideTech Complete Coilover set up.

Does anyone have any insight on which way to go here?

I have adjustable Ridetech non-coil overs on all 4s of my ragtop - pricey but absolutely worth it as the brand itself goes.

I am using QA-1 coil over spring on front and rear of my 65 Olds Cutlass. I purchased spanner wrenches ,bearing set and front sway bar 5 years ago . car handles really good.

I am in the midst of installing the QA-1 coil over spring level 2 kit on the front and rear of my 68 Olds Cutlass Convertible but not driven it yet. Install is straight forward so far.

Ridetech, hands down. They're monotube shocks, built by Fox. There's nothing better at their price point (you can get better - but you're going to pay a lot more for it).
