Will bring me back to the days of modding my C5 and C6 in Amityville, NY at another Forum Vendor with all-around great guys at The Vette Doctors Performance Shop.

About $70 each and about half that if you buy the parts from a discount GM parts supplier and do the work yourself.

So I met Joe and the crew today at Cordes Performance and they are all amazing! Unfortunately for me I have the worst case scenario. Looking under the car everything looks good, according to Joe. The noise is most likely coming from the shock, however without taking everything apart there is no way of knowing for sure. The shock is not leaking one bit but all other suspension components look good. If anybody has a set of Z51 rear shocks for sale I would be grateful as I am not in a position to spend $700+ ea at the moment. I did get my oil changed and had the ProClip wireless phone holder installed by Joe this morning. .........In any case I'll take anybody's hot leads on Z51 rear shocks, preferably low mile units. Thank you!!
