Is anyone out there using QA 1 piggy back shocks, and what do they think about them?

The best solution and the strongest is to install an AFCO lower mount in the control arm .
Part number A550090108X. It does require welding but it can be done on the car if you dont want to pull the arm off . I made a simple drill guide with a 1/4" hole in the middle that bolts onto the OE bolt holes . Use a 3 3/8" bimetal hole saw at low speed and you will have a perfect hole to install the mount.
I actually just completed a set tonight for a Stocker. along with Global west bushings.
