Soft ride and proper height shocks Hi XLR members. Hi have this week made a search for the replacement of my mag ''wet'' shocks. This thread suggest the Bilstein B8 units for a more sporty driving while keeping the mag shocks ride, however some members report some button out in hitting their...

Yes …... for the older generations of my area, when the excessive emotions happened. The religious said never say the god name, however the first lumberman created this words and many others north America new words such as tabarouette tabarnouche and on. Austin d'beu. IAN :laugh:

REX is in TABARNAC REX. Any ideas of the cause…..is a receiver unit equivalent would be an economical way for the fix. IAN :dunno:

Model year nken17. You can use the year 2006 c6 for references in case that the parts clerk is not aware or use the info of nerkpower. In a near futur I plant myself to do the same conversion with the B6 series with the regular drive feature. Re the z06 corvette, it is a code for the...

Mag shocks or B8 sporty shocks, or regular ride B6, or the c6 OEM shocks...make a choice. nken17. Find enclosed the parts numbers for the front and rear shocks absorbers, they are what the members reported their experiences with this change on their XLR. The B8 Bilstein series is for the...

Hi Gord. I did that 2 years ago and now 2 out of the mags 4 shocks are leaking…. again,:mad: and that is same problem on the recent Cadillac models. Yes, there is a life time warranty, but you have to get them installed and pay for it, I purchased them at Rock Auto parts store,:rolleyes: the...

Sally Wikipedia is a source of my argument with you, the corvette is from 3100 lbs and the XLR from 3800 lbs….. I stand on my opinion. When a manufacture supply some differents parts numbers for a similar item, that means it is different, no matter how it looks like. Telling the member that a...

Ron. The GM parts books indicate only one choice that was made. ( see GM Parts Direct ) As mention by Sally….:blinzel: on the corvettes there seems to have differents grades, as they have differents options of engines power and the racing tracks needs. The after market could have some...

Hi sally. A corvette c6 curb weight is 3131 +/- lbs and the XLR is 3840, +/- a different of 709 lbs. ( 1/3 of a tonne, that is a lot ) The retractable top and its heavy hinges, all the gaz and hydraulic cylinders are mostly a good part of this weight. Because of this 709 lbs weight and the...

Hi Ron Glad that you will visit an expert for the suspension, I was worry that the wrong spring could have been installed on your XLR. and it is good to hear that the dealer has found no defective springs. That is the reason why I have brouht back the issue since the corvette curb weight is...

I would be carefull in using a corvette traverse spring ( if need ), as the corvette is lighter than the XLR. The fitment could be the same, yes, however the ride and the height could be not the same. . On the blades some codes are shown, for the spring curve, it would be wise to get it check by...

Fine. Good start The height adjuster will get the specialised shop to check the leaf spring and the lower ''A'' arms. Let us know the results??? Regards. IAN :thumbsup

RONAlD.... Was your car doing it the same before the changes of the worn S/A. Why then the front and rear suspensions soudaintly gets a 2'' lower... my opinion is the problem could have been there before the replacement of the S/A. The transversal curved leaf spring anchored in the center of...

That sounds like a lady sitting on the boy friend laps and enjoying the ruff ride for the 3 passengers…..:laugh:
