Hello from Glendale, Az
A lot of great info on this forum and I hope I can contribute. Purchased my 1st Corvette and I'm going to join the leaking magnetic ride shock club. It's a very nice 03 coupe with 55K on it. I was aware of the shock problem before buying and that made the purchase price much lower. Here's what I did yesterday while Ebay had a 15% off sale. All 4 ZO6 shocks, Tech 2 clone scanner that will do the delete and the console panel that will eliminate the tour/sport ****. Total price $544.08. I'm 63yo so feel free to call me a crazy man. The current shocks were cleaned about 5 years ago and there is no doubt all 4 are toast. I'd really like to keep this setup and may go back to it someday, maybe when there is a rebuilder somewhere.
