Worth the change, you will need new lower control arms. The upgrade on the 2013 over my 2010 with Pedders bars is amazing. Stock 2013 corners a tad better than with the stiffest 2010-2011 Pedders setup.

Absolutely worth the change! You will need the ZL1 sway bars and front end links. You may want to consider the Pfadt ZL Spec Sway Bars (part # 1410138) as they are great improvement even over the ZL1 Sway bars! We also have a MasterCard gift card promo going on on all Pfadt products! Please feel free to call, PM or email me with questions. We are happy to help!

The OP has a a 2012 with updated FE4 suspension. There is no need to replace the control arms.

Best regards,

The change just from stock to stock is a decent change, however going up to the Pfadt ZL Spec bars is where it is at. You will need the Pfadt ZL Spec Bars and the Pfadt HD ZL Spec Front End Links for the installation to work.

We are having a tax-time promotion right now on Pfadt products also in the sponsors section.

Here is a quick chart of firmness front and rear...
