Doing this upgrade this week on my 97 C5. It rattles terribly and is u stable at speed over bumps so I’m hoping the 27 year old shocks are the issue and this fixes it. Almost went with coil overs, but the Bilsteins were half the price so worth a shot! Thanks for the vid brother helped a lot!

I'll be honest, I don't think coilovers are all they're cracked up to be. Adjustable shocks? Probably worth it... but I'm happy keeping it simple, eliminating a variable, and just running it.

@@477racing agree 100%! If you aren’t racing and doing track days I don’t see a point in spending that much on adjustable suspension.

The torque spec on the lower is 162 ft/lbs per the manual, just fyi.

I just looked into this further: there's a TSB stating not to torque to 162 because bolts were breaking. Use 107 for used bolts.

How was the ride quality? I’ve been thinking about buying a set of these for a while.

In my opinion, I found them to feel softer on the street compared to 2004 stock Z06 shocks. As for the track, I feel that the car handles excellently. I was hitting 1.25 G's in some of my turns. Unfortunately, in stock seats I was holding on for dear life. I could probably get more out of the car with some actual supportive seats.

A Corbeau bucket and a harness and you’ll be loving life! Of course you’ll need a seat bracket and a harness bar and belts. A word on belts, get the ones that transition from 2-3In wide on the shoulder strap so they will fit in the channel of your HANS restraint. HANS is required if you run a harness, if you don’t wanna kill yourself. Back to the belts, also get the style that tighten by pulling up rather than down, there isn’t the room along the sides of the seat to tighten by pulling down.
