    raising the front end

    you would be giving up ride, performance, handling extra wear on parts etc. 3 inches would be whole lot .that would put extra stress on the front leaf spring. Its set up for ride height to be in the middle of its up and down movement. I also doubt if you could align the camber either would...

    Help! Drivers door won't open

    could have got 2 for 27 on ebay also with free shipping. haha . Only reason we have these is because they fit the Vette or we would have another part unavailable.

    Hood Alignment

    you should only adjust one bolt at a time. Loosen the rear first. then pick up on the hood .that will lower the rear. tighten it and then loosed th front. pick up on the hood that will raise the front of the hinge and lower the rear. loosening both at the same time will allow the whole hinge...

    Headlights replacement

    IAn what are you talking about. continue to look all you want. Others have been doing it for over 4 years now since the headlights became so costly. I just started looking about 3 years ago and made a paper template that I took with me. Every time I saw a car that looked close I would check it...

    Help! Cant locate noise

    rattles and water leaks can drive you batty and are so simple to fix once you find them but it can take a lot to locate it. I would have guessed inside the cat but they usually sound like marbles rattling around when they start to go. got nothing on this one. sorry

    Headlights replacement

    we had a post on here or the other forum with about 200 lights that "look" the same and no were near fit. These where on there. 2 or 3 people went to keystone and unboxed every light that appeared to be close and photographed some of them . I would love to see one that would be close. Just...

    What did you do to / with your XLR today?

    did the second one also have damage? I wondered why you mentioned a third? Gm parts from warehouse to dealer are handled pretty well. Its when they don't repack and ship as received by fedex etc that they get damaged. Drivers door hinges are available and will most likely be for a while as they...

    Motor Mount Replacmeent

    apparently this. haha I have not seen one leak either. The corvettes use the same ones or at least the same style and I was correct above. some guys said they did theirs in an hour .looks like they like to replace them with a more solid bushing type. I will have to look but the aluminum mount...

    Got rid of my Mag Ride Shocks!

    read the corvette forums the guys that replaced their z06 shocks with bilsteins did not notice any difference unless they went with the comp shocks and had the car lowered. springs changed and wheels upgraded to wider. really depends on how hard you drive the car and if you have upgraded...

    Motor Mount Replacmeent

    that's pretty strong money. that's time is almost engine removal and replacement time. the studs do look a little long on the mounts which run 20-40 each. its going to be a combo of blocking the engine then letting the car down a bit plus loosening the crossmember one side at a time to wiggle...

    Got rid of my Mag Ride Shocks!

    just buy the stock z06 Corvette shocks. you can get a set of take offs with no miles on them on ebay for 400$ and the sims for 200 .Add a sway bar for 125 and your ride will be as good to better than it ever was when new. I just road in a car with brand new Mags on it and it did not ride a bit...

    Warning! RUBBER SNUFFERS

    actually GM still showed them in stock a month or so ago so I ordered 40 of them and they shipped 3. They have not discontinued the part number yet so my parts guy says I should get them some time before the end of the month. It would be good to have a backup plan if they don't make any more...

    GM Part #12613455 needed!!
