I use the ZL1 pad. You have to work around the mounts for the extra cross member under the car. I put the pad on the spot designated on the spot weld and a jack stand under the point where the cross member bolts to the frame. Works fine. My brother-in-law got the set of four pads that you attach to the car and leave them on. He has had no problems with that either. There are a lot of cheaper pads on Amazon and eBay but I got some and the slot wasn't cut deep enough to fit all the way over the pinch weld.

I have the ZL1 set of lift pads and they work fine. I don’t keep them mounted on the car but here are a few pictures to show you how they look. You can see how far they extend below the side trim.

New to owning a Camaro - what is the purpose of these lift pads? Does this car not come with chassis jack points in the corners???

Make sure when taking the car ANYWHERE, even the dealer as they also lift them improperly, that you point out the proper lift points to them or there is a good chance of damage. I have the same red zl1 add-ons pads that i keep on car full time. Its easy for the car tech to see them when servicing. |
