Default ZR1 /( FE5 ) Front Sway Bar part number ???

Does anyone have the part number for the ZR1/FE5 front sway bar and bushings? I've looked it up and searched a bit but am very unconfident in the numbers i have. Even searching by VIN at GM gets me what I think is the Z51 front bar.

Thanks!

Check and make sure of what you have now. My 2013 grand sport with mag ride came with ZR1 sways. Found that out during the install process of the "new" ZR1 sways. I had always heard that grand sports had Z06 suspension bits. Not so in my case.

uh. .. this is for my C5. I bought it before I realized I wanted a C6 GS convertible Going to make due with it for a year or two.

Did you by chance measure the O.D. of the "ZR1" bar? I think that number listed above is for the 31.0 mm bar which was used on the Z51, Grandsport, and Z06 suspension as I understand it.

33mm front and 31mm rear on the ZR1 bars. Z06, GS, and Z51 fronts are the same with the Z51 being smaller on the rear vs the Z06 and GS. 31 front for the two Z's and GS. 28 rear for them except for the Z51 which is a 25.6. Don't know whether any other mag ride GS's have the ZR1 bars. Mine sure did.

I have a 2011 GS 6spd coupe it too has mag ride and ZR1 bars.
It also had a 3 bolt cam from factory which surprised me too.
