Fresh suspension finally installed

I feel like I have a new car! I replaced my stock 150k suspension with new poly controll arm and tie rod bushings, Koni HP's, and Sprint springs. Now she rides like a radio flyer I also replaced the stock drum rear with a LS1 rear with a slp locking diff. I'm convinced the rear swap is the best ''bang for your buck'' mod you can do to these cars. Now if only I could find and eliminate all those new rattles...

Ahh, indeed. 275/18 eagle f1's. Now I need a new clutch. I've had my c5's for about 2 months now. They werent my first pick but I couldnt pass up the deal I was getting. I like yours better though! You have a sexy car!

BTW Steve, do you still have any of your factory red interior stuff? I need front seats and trim panels for the hatch area.

i do have the red seats, but they prolly arent worth it sell for me. Small rip/hole in the driver. No trim panels
