I contemplating doing Lowering Springs as I'm running the same offsets as the ZL1 but i am worried about rubbing..

this is why I am saving up for coil overs, I have ready with some lowering springs if the car is lowered to much the ride quality suffers a lot.

better if you can control how much adjustability you want with coil overs at least in my opinion.

Agreed i think the V's will conflict with some of the suspension mods though? I know the v 1's do not but unsure about the 3's

camarossdusk · 01-01-2015, 07:45 PM

yeah im not sure either, but do really like that the ridetechs have a lifetime warranty,

camarossdusk · 01-01-2015, 08:25 PM

I think jdp tyler said they have 100,000,000 mile warranty.

The video above should help out anyone looking to install the subframe bushings themselves. I was provided this video by a very helpful Forum member. Hope this helps!

Who makes good poly bushings for the 1LE sway bar bushings. I see poly for aftermarket sways.

Not to sure man. The bushings usually come with the sways? I just got mine in from BMR and they came with them.. Anyone else able to comment on this?
