Budget/C6Z oriented suspension question for C5...
So I'm planning on upgrading to C6Z shocks and springs and T1 sway bars on my C5 coupe...
The way I understand it... C6 shocks and front spring will work on a c5 and c6 sway bars will work on C5. C6 rear spring has different mounting hardware. So I can't use the rear Z06 springs on my C5.
What are you guys using for the rear springs to work with this setup then?
Thanks for the help!

You don't have coil overs, the spring is separate from the damper on the rear. The c6z shocks should bolt on, but I don't know what you'll do for a rear spring to match the front spring.

I am not very knowledgeable as most on this forum, but read a lot.
Why are you wanting to put C-6 parts on your C-5? If you want to 'upgrade' and are on a budget factory C-5 Z06 parts are a better choice.
Just MHO.

I don't know the answer to your question. Might want to try asking people who have done it what they did.
I know VBP makes springs so they might be a source for the rear spring.
