I'll snap a pic and if the p/n info is still visible I'll post it
That would be awesome! If you're able to get both front and rear I'd appreciate it as now I'm wondering if that spring is different from the Z06 FE7 as well.

The rear tag was un-readable....literally just a white sticker. The front was in pretty good shape. Car is a 2017 Grand Sport Z07, manual transmission...

Going to bump this for some part number requests.

I see the FE7 spring part numbers.

Anyone have the swaybar and bushings part numbers?

Thanks

Part numbers are in Post #1 in the screen shot of my Excel file

GS uses the same rear sway bar for FE6 and Z07 (FE7) set ups. Front spring is also the same for FE6 or FE7 Grand Sports.

Bushings (ie insulators) are different for the FE7 GS cars and are listed in the screen shot. The GS Z07 front bushings are not the same as the Z06 Z07 cars since the front sway bars are different sizes.

Cant believe I missed that. Thanks guys. Seems like a very inexpensive and worthwhile upgrade.
