Rear Toe IN 0.12
Rear Total Toe IN 0.24

This will improve straight line stability, on center steering feel and turn in.

Ok,

So according to the sheet they gave me I'm at -.7 front chamber. I need to be at -1.00 camber. Have them zero out the front toe.

Rear camber looks good. Rear toe looks close to what you posted.

For those who asked here are some before and after pics.

Before 1LE (i.e. OEM V6 suspension)

KaBoom1701 · 08-22-2014, 01:00 PM

After 1LE install...

Thx for your help.

Once I upgraded to Hotchkis Sway Bars & Springs, FE4 Struts Front and Rear my car dropped about 1.25 inches and I noticed a difference in cornering! I can tailfish very easily when I hit a corner. I prefer oversteer over understeer.

Ok,

So here's a video of how well the 1LE suspension works on the V6!

Enjoy!

Awesome build. I've seen mixed opinions that for the 1LE package to work on a bone stock V6, the SS Brembo brake upgrade is necessary. Some say it is, some don't mention it. The Chevrolet Performance website has two different part numbers for upgrading with the 1LE package (23123398 for V6 & 23123397for V8) and doesn't mention needing to do anything to the brakes to make components fit in the description. Can anyone comment on this?

Thx for the complements.

From what I've seen the V6 rear brake calipers are wider than the rear Brembos. This would interfere with the rear 1LE sway bar.

The earlier 1LE kits had the rear cradle mounts as part of the kit. I see now they have removed that part of these 1LE upgrade kits.

I was wondering if you got it installed at a Chevy performance shop and how much they charged you for the kit and the installation? I don't mean to be rude or anything, it's just that I am interested in doing this and want to keep my warranty..

Thx in advance man

camrytt · 01-12-2016, 10:08 PM

I think it's in the 3500 range at a dealership. I really want to do it too but that's a little out of my range

I bought my 1LE kit off of here for $400, and installed it in about 5 hours. Pretty easy!
