I'm considering strange 10 ways, I'm looking for a good adj set up that doesn't break the bank. Also look into lake wood.

Re: Good street/strip shock and strut combo help
I'd like some info on the strange 10 ways. They seem well priced. I'd like to be able to set struts to soft for the track.
Or run 70/30 lake woods everywhere?

Re: Good street/strip shock and strut combo help
I had Lakewoods all around as well as the Strange 10 ways all around at certain points of my build. All of them were good shocks and struts. If you do a non adjustable Lakewood, Id do 70/30 struts and 50/50 shocks out back....

Upr sells the qa1 and strange units. Just want to make the right buy.
I want the car to handle on the street which is why I think I want to go strange 10 way
