ZL1 Addons Lift Pads
Hi Guys, I'm looking into getting ZL1 Addons lift pads, I already had a close call tire shops jack almost slipped off and caused some cosmetic damage under the car. Question is has anyone ever experienced them coming loose? also whats the difference between the stealth and regular ones? what should i get?

+1! very easy install. Was able to get them installed in maybe 5 mins during storage I do forget they are installed just like S346k mentioned lol. Usually comes to mind when I take the car into the shop and hound on my advisor to let the techs know to use those pads

I've had mine on for about 2 years (or only 4k miles). Car is mostly a track car. I did use blue loctite on the threads but never had an issue.

Agree 100%. Blue loctite on mine as well. Those tiny set screws provided tend not to grab well IMO. Going on three years now with no issues.

Guys should I order the regular ones or stealth. The stealth ones look like there wider.

Get the stealth pads, as they do not protrude as much below the frame. They will not come loose, as you have set screws to tighten. (It comes with the set screw tool as well) Great add on to the car.

Definitely needed. Dealer damaged my pinch welds during PDI. They work well, and I want them below the side molding to protect it as well. I used blue loctite on the screw threads. They aren't going anywhere.

I'm going to order the stealth in candy red. They are out of the stock but they should have them in by end of this week. I'll hold off on my oil change until there installed. Thank you everyone for helping me out.

Or purchase two more lift pads and install them in the two additional lift positions.

I considered that but I didn't want to confuse any shop into thinking they could use the middle lift points instead of front lift points, I wouldn't want that much weight hanging off the front.

The jack pad (where you lift) is more towards the middle.
