It has all the specs and pictures for the install. He talks about a Z51 bar install, but the steps work the same for Z06 bars. The pictures are really good. :yesnod:

The only update to the web article I would mention is that the aluminum links have a wrench assist on them (the plastic links don't) that allow them to be torqued to spec. Hope it helps. :cheers:

Do not overtighten the nuts on the endlinks. I did that a few days ago and torqued the endlink bolt into two seperate pieces. I had a torque wrench that didn't work quite so well. Or maybe it worked too well....
