This would be valuable info for anyone doing suspension component swaps. For example, with Z51's in short supply, buying the base suspension, then upgrading swaybars and shocks, might satisfy some buyers. But do you upgrade to the Z51 or to the Z06 swaybars? If you knew the front-to-rear spring rate ratios, you could make an intelligent upgrade choice.
Anyone with info?
