I’ve been running all SPL on the rear of my ZLE for a while now. As far as the outer toe bolts, I will add that when I first heard of them breaking (from SPL tech) I went to replace them and I could see the bolt wobble slightly as I backed it out. If they are bending they are weakening especially if you are taking them out and reinstalling them. SPL recommended using new OEM bolts, at least when I talked to them about it 6 months or so ago.

The biggest problem I have is no matter which of the best alignment shops in my area that I use, none of them seem to understand that the hiem ends need to be able to move freely and not bound up by being clocked against each other. The first thing I do after any alignment is put the car on a lift, get my 9/16 wrench and 3/16 Allen and fix this.
