The factory bushings looked fine and so did the end-links other than feeling a little looser than brand new. Up next are the front swaybar bushings & end-links to see if that’s the issue! Unfortunately, the car’s age (5 years/45k miles) is starting to show as its needed quite a few wear-n-tear items replaced this year it feels like. At least I got in a good 200+ mile roofless drive yesterday; still enjoying the car just as much as I did back in 2014, and at least replacing these parts is still cheaper than trading-in for a new one!
I thought 45k on a Corvette was like 120k on a passenger car, you sure you dont want to trade in on that sweet new mid engine??
