So I am a bit late in discovering this kit. Will very likely order this soon for my 2017 SS.

I don't track my car; it is mainly a DD and weekend cruiser.

But I had a bit of a surprise when I changed lanes on the interstate. Rear of the car just felt weird. The road surface has grooves and I think the rear of the car tried to follow the grooves and the movement in the cradle allowed it to try to do that for just a moment.

Question: I know that the cradle bolts are torque to yield. Anyone just re-use the original bolts and use a torque spec of "gud'n'tite"?

Okay, watched the install video that was linked in a previous page and they re-used the bolts. I will do the same.
