Default WTB: Springs/Coils/Sways etc

Looking to rebuild the tired out suspension on my C5 this winter while it's sitting in the garage. It is all stock, with just under 100K on it. I'd like to replace everything and looking for used springs and sways. I am planning on doing a fair amount of HDPE and Autox next season but still need it street driveable as I use my C5 to drive to customers offices as it gets twice the fuel mileage as my jeep.

Also looking for used shocks and any other suspension components.

I have some used VBP springs, (1275#front, 800#rear).
I also have some used bilstein shocks.

I have used stock C5 Z06 springs, shocks, and swaybars with bushings. All in great shape taken off the car at 7,200 miles. I will make you a great deal. PM me.

This is my pick. The stock Z06 suspension is very capable.

Found out over the weekend that C6 springs require a bit of work to get to fit in the rear of a C5 so for now only C5 springs. Still looking....

And just signed up for a 3 day HDPE event at Summit Point. Last event on the stock setup. yeahhhhhhh
