i run the double adjustables on my SS in front and rear , i made my own suspension in the rear ( made an upper mount from a new tube crossmember and made new lower mounts on the outward most part of the axle. they are a bit shorter than stock legnth and i had some room to play with the lower adjustable mounts. so far i like them since i can play with the setting and have it pretty nice for daily driving . i had to use djm a arms up front since the factory mount cant be used with qa1's. this was also to allo wthe front to not rise and stay put like chaining/straping the front with the turn of a ****.

it may not help you out completely but the adjustability is great for performance.

have you looked at other possibilities causing the rough ride? big wheels and small tires can only be compensated so much.

I have it @ 7" but I just bought the hanger to put it at 6" or so then I can take less air out my Helpers. Also going to put 285-35-24 in place of my 275-30-24 in the back.
