Do the front upper A-arms from a c6 fit? I read they pushed the wheel back like a inch? If they fit and are different please chime in, I am looking for a larger area in the A than the stock c5.

I've read the front undercarriage cradle swaps. Lighter weight.

See the thread lightweight corvette in the autocross section.

C6 steering knuckles are a direct bolt on except you will have to reset your toe-in. They are stiffer and also cost less than the C5 parts. I bought mine on line and said they were for a 2009 Z06. Don't know why one is $40 more. Pricing is from 2017.

88965638 is the part number for the Left front or Right rear steering knuckle (List $260 discounted about $180)

88965637 is the part number for the Right front or Left rear steering knuckle (List $200 discounted about $140)
