Replace it with a take-off and there should be many available probably quite close, maybe consider the upgrade to a coil-over package or maybe even an after-market replacement and there are maybe a couple different choices there also. Decisions!

The spring should be an RHY code that would be '92 - '95 all ZR-1 and a '96 coupe with FE3. You might use that to shop maybe VBP or some others to gather a plan. Your season in Texas is already started I'd think so it's "time" and judging from the appearance in the snapshots, like I mentioned NOW.

If you deal with it now it's a minor inconvenience. If you just "keep an eye on it" it can and will likely bite you, it might not be just an inconvenience then. It could be catastrophic!
I agree completely. I feel fortunate I noticed it BEFORE my trip to BG. It'd be stupid to not replace it before a long road trip. It's not worth the gamble.

Thanks, guys.
