Mine looks like the top, can't wait for my springs to show up. Just worried about them putting it on the lift and not crushing something!

They're from Diode Dynamics. Excellent quality.

I was worried too. This was the first time I've had to have any car at a dealer since I was a tech 7 years ago and did all my own work.

It worked for me to 28 1/4 to 27 1/2..

Stance should look MUCH better now.

Miss Delgado · 12-15-2017, 06:42 PM

So if we understand this correctly, the 2018 ZL1 comes with better springs, and sits lower, which means better aerodynamics?

Gunkk · 12-15-2017, 06:48 PM

Yes and no. The early 2017 coupes had front springs that didn’t settle as much as Cevy expected.

They fixed it in April, offering free replacement to owners upon request.

The short answer is yes.

EDFHOBBIES · 12-15-2017, 07:06 PM

I wouldn't go of April mine was built in April I would just measure. But ya passing by the dealer all the 18s look good now.

So GM/Chevy made yet another defective part? So now all ZL1 owners must go to the dealer and make an appointment for all new springs?

What a hassle!

IneedAZ · 12-15-2017, 09:12 PM

Mine are being installed Monday.. Took nearly 3 weeks to get the springs.

EDFHOBBIES · 12-15-2017, 11:18 PM

It's a preference not a mandatory spring change.

Its not defective, they just made a decision in early production to run a shorter spring. Its not a requirement that you replace the spring, its more of a preference and on GMs dime.
