Thank you tramtwo! Do you know if anyone has had any issues with breaking axles, spider gear, drive shafts or anything?

So far I have only heard of one 1LE breaking a half shaft because of wheel hop. At this point there is no shortage of people driving these cars very hard. Seems like a pretty solid setup GM has.

If I were in position I would change some bushingings.... Pedders EP6578 Radius Arm Bushing Insert
and Pedders EP1200 Subframe Bushing Inserts. These are on my list.

Had my splitter replaced this friday. It had many broken clips from the original install. Original dealer wanted to glue it in, but found another dealer who said they would fix under warranty. Also finished the install on my heritage grill this morning.

Seriously doubt it as the tires and wheel sizes are different.

1LE rotors/calipers fit w/ 2010 2LT RS spindles?

If someone can help - will the 1LE rotors/calipers fit directly on a 2010 2LT RS Spindle or will there be issues ? I know the 1LE spindle/bearings are HD and same as ZL-1 so different than stock 2LT RS in performance but are they different in fit/installation to the rotor/calipers. I know the Brembos are the same as SS but want to be sure the mounting will be OK on a 2LT RS spindle.

This link has 1LE Brake kit complete with spindles/bearings but unsure I want to pay for the additional installation expense as the suspension would be worked on and a full alignment required. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=287397

Any help/coaching will be appreciated... don't want to be surprised.

The original question Pete... Is the OEM spec different on the 1LE setup?

Is it possible to track my car? I already have a vin; it wasn't ordered the dealer was already supposed to receive it. They keep telling me they will find the exact location but I have yet to get it.

Just got back from the dealer. Had my car aligned due to the steering wheel being off center. They aligned it under warranty.
