Default Suspension Upgrade???????

Hey guys,
I have a 1994 corvette and i was wondering if they made conversion kits for C5 or C6 suspensions bc they are alot more forgiving and economical when it comes to bumpy roads. And man are there a lot of bumpy roads. Anyone have any idea how to improve ride comfort for a 1994, i dont care much about handling, its a freggin go kart already!

If your 94 is a FE1 Corvette, it's not going to get any more comfy than that. I think there is a type of shock that is softer than AC Delco but I don't know which one. I hope others will jump in and help you.

I'm the opposite, I have VBP sports suspension, lowered with Bilsteins shocks and 18" wheels and for me it's not really hard yet.
