Thanks for the update. I am good to go again. Install coming up in a few weeks when the weather breaks and I have a free weekend.

If you have a 13 with the FE3 suspension (V6 Cars) you should be ok i think, but we are verifying things to be sure.

At this point, I am liking verifications, so please keep us informed.

My car is on jack stands waiting for the proper bushes for the ZL1 sways. Hopefully I will have those tomorrow so I can button up the rearend and tackle the front side. I am sure I am going to love it once it all comes together, but the process is killing me. Lol! However, shit happens because you can't plan for everything that changes in a new model year, but I am satisfied with the responsiveness - and that is the important thing.

should be the same thing, we have some parts on order to verify fitment, it may be a couple of days before we have an answer for you.

Correct, there may have been a change on 2012+ models.

Yea I have '12 SS, FE4, I didn't do that comparison so I can't really tell. Now it's installed and I am curious.

I just didnt want to install and have a looser steering rack, the point of the bushing is to tighten up the rack not make it so the bushing can be loose and move back and forth more than the stock rubber bushing. If you install a under sized bushing into a mount you arnt gaining anything but just doing the opposite
