The Select Ride Control feature

My left front actuator is broken and plan on sending it off to be fix but I'm just curious if you can tell which position you have it in. I mean if you have it set to tour and your going 80mph can you tell the difference than if you switched it to sport or pref? I can't find the owners manual so just wondering can you really tell. Those FX3 shocks are way to expensive.

I can definetly notice the difference in my 91. I replaced the actuators and shocks on the front at about ~90K miles.

That's what I was thinking of doing just replacing the front 2 shocks and get the actuator fixed. 105,000 miles. I found some new for 175 apiece. That's still high but since Corvette has such high resell value why not.

I had my shocks rebuilt and revalved by bilstein. It's a noticable difference between the settings.

How much do they charge for that service and how long was the turn around time? Mine is a DD and I cant afford to have it out of commission for a month.

Thanks

$125 to fix it which is a bargain considering $400 for new one.
