Default Corvette

Hello, I am having trouble finding a rear leaf spring for my 2000 automatic corvette. Any suggestions from you kind folks.

Try Marc at VetteNuts. He'll probably be your best bet. Or maybe google a corvette salvage yard?

Watch the classifieds, a few part out Vettes, or people who upgrade to better springs or coilovers.

Welcome to the forum! All of the suggestions above are good. If you aren't happy with those, you could always upgrade to a set of coilovers.

Welcome to the forum. If Marc doesn't have it@Vettenuts, and he probably will, try C&S in Sarasota, Florida. I'd go with whoever is closest, because with its oddball shape, it's probably not the cheapest thing to ship....
