02 ZR2 leaf spring help
 
Where do I source leaf springs for the ZR2. I cant make heads or tails of rock auto's springs, all seem to be the same except for one but none designate ZR2/high wide. Lcm doesn't seem to list them at all. It appears someone used the torch lowering method in the rear at the front bushing and cranked the torsion bars to lower. The bump stops are on the axle which I hope explains the weird rebound feeling I get when I hit bumps. So my other question is will the standard leaf spring fit and how much lower from stock should I expect.

I don't know if the standard spring will work or not, but I can tell you on my 98 it was definitely different. I went through it a few years ago when I was replacing the bushings with Energy Suspension. The kit they sent me had wrong size bushings and was based off what standard leaf springs. They were great to work with though. They put together a custom kit for me based off the measurements I gave them and they were thankful for the info so they could put together a ZR2 kit to sell. Don't know if they did or not. Not that this helps you at all. Just a plug for good customer service.

Isn't the spring supposed to go straight back where the yellows lines are?

Pic looks the same as my ZR2.
