Default Looking for leaf springs!!!! Help!!!!

Hey guys,

I just broke my rear leaf spring on my C6. Does anyone have any springs they want to sell? Preferably some ZO6 springs. If not then any model will do for now.

PM me a price.

Thanks

I unfortunately have it off my C5Z. Good luck...

Just curious how you break something like that (unless in a crash)?

My cutouts were the cause most likely. I need to get some turn-downs and make a custom heat shield.

You might want to try the new Hyperco springs. They were developed by Danny Kellermeyer at DJ Racing.

Or VBP. Good opportunity to see what's out there. Or time to go coilover! :-)

I have one. It's a C6 Base one used for maybe 200 miles.

I worry about that too with my DMH cutouts. I ordered an extra set of turn downs and welded them to the existing ones. I think it will help a lot. That being said, I ended up getting a set of straight pipes for track events and keep the cutouts closed. Here are a couple of pics:
