Suspension differences in Z06 years?
Hi, does anyone have a list of the Z06 Suspension changes by year, especially with part numbers?
I just upgraded to Z06 sways/shocks. Then was surprised to see that my friends 01 Z06 sway bars still had plastic endlinks...
Did the spring rates change from 01-04 Z?
I know the shocks changed in 04, were they different in 01 than 02-03 as well?
On the sway bars, were there just the 2 designs, or more?

zo6 suspension upgrades
It is my undestanding that the '04 and maybe late '03 had their suspensions modified to reflect track results at Germany's Neurmburg course. I know for fact this was a major GM sales pitch for the 04 ZO6 CE, in fact mine has the tags to ID suspension tuned. So there must have been a difference. I know the 3 volumne tech manual I viewed once had the GM Part# for every component in the car. Maybe the Gm parts dept. can help. Try clicking the add under parts catagory.

Over the years the shocks, and a few components have been upgraded or changed. Can't recall all the specifics but I believe this site outlines most of the changes year to year.
