Z51 lowering
Is there any concerns when lowering a coupe if it came with Z51 rpo. Is the procedure the same? Any comments on wether I should and how to do this is appreciated. Also how far off is the alignment when done, I don't want to max out of factory adjusters.
Thanks Steve

Steve,
No problem lowering a Z51 car.
You have to answer the question whether you should lower the car.
The obvious con is scraping the front spoiler.
No way to tell how far the car wil be out of alignment after lowering. It depends where the alignment was before the car was lowered.
Always have the alignment checked after lowering. It will change.
Try it. You can always raise it back up easily.
Someone will chime in with the link on how to lower the car done by Patches.
