True, but there's still the chance yo may hit a bump or pothole and bend one though.
So this could happen now right? Even on my FE2 suspension. Or would it be more likely to happen with the installed idea stuff?

Stock your fine. With the 1LE bars there's a good chance that a pothole, bump, or rough road will damage the FE3 end links because of how thin they are.

Well $#!^...guess I'd need to physically see a 2013 front endlink to guage the difference in thickness, but I see your point. A stiffer bar will flex less making the endlink the point of failure. Coupled with the fact that the endlinks are quite long, yeah it could be an issue.

Just got my zl1 toe links and 1le rear upper shock mounts in. Was a little upset that the revised shock mounts don't have the little window cut out in them. Was hoping they'd line up with the peddlers xa adjustment knobs. Guess I'll still have to drill, at least the bushing looks stronger.

Just read thru the posts and I still have a question. Are the sway bar endlinks front and rear, the same for the 1LE/ZL1 and the 2012 SS? Thinking of going with GM sways as an upgrade over the SS FE4 bars.

Apparently not at least for the front bar, and this is aside from the 1LE front bar endlink fasteners being 12mm vs 10mm for the SS,

This is why I'm questioning it. Part numbers listed are the same. If stud size is different, wouldn't that mean a different part number?
What am I missing?

Part numbers are from the first post.




Front Sway End Link (SS, ZL1, 1LE) (passenger side) - 22842515
Front Sway End Link (SS, ZL1, 1LE) (drivers side) - 22842516

So what I think I figured out is that those 2 part numbers are for front endlinks for all 2013 camaros. I did a part number price request from 3 dealerships and all came back saying the FELs were for LS, LT, SS, 1LE, ZL1.

Caveat- Now what I'm not sure about is whether those dealer price quotes actually mean that those 2 FEL part#s will work on all models listed, but not necessarily what comes standard on say a 2013 2LT

I'd actually feel better if someone with a 2013 LT could snap some pics of their front end links

Actually you shouldn't need the LCA's if you are just upgrading the shocks /struts

Nope, the only thing that was relocated is the sway bar mount. You do not need LCA's if your not changing sway bars.
