1968 GTO QA1 Rear Pro-Coil-overs
I purchased a QA1 GM A-body Level 3 suspension kit (from Summit) and havea question regarding the orientation of the rear coil-overs when bolted tolower bracket (attached to rear-end) and car placed on the ground. Peryour instructions the lower mount is installed perpendicular to the rea-endaxle tube. I have attached some photos which show the shock not centeredin the lower bracket.
Anybody have any comments

the lower you set it the worst the angle, or the top bracket bolt needs to be moved inboard, as it is now under bump the shock bearing will over articulate and the shock hit the bracket potentially breaking the shock base.

Email QA1, include pictures like this and the description. This does not look right, there is no way the rear axle can be expected to pass through the suspension arc and not snap that lower attachment point. Unless the pictures are just that deceiving.
