eibach package...

So I am gonna buy the Eibach front and rear sway bar package and was wondering if anyone knew the warranty ramifications? Do I get them installed at my dealer and if so does it void my warranty?

dealer won't install it isn't a GM part. They will probably try to void the warranty if they even saw it but only if it is something suspension related. In other words... do it yourself and don't tell them, they probably wont ever know the difference.

are you kidding? GM will install it, they'll just charge you the standard hourly rate for labor.

they can't void your warranty, but if something in your suspension breaks, you can bet they will laugh if you try to claim warranty. Especially because if they install it, it'll be on the dealers paperwork.

LOL.....no you wouldnt.



Get 'em installed wherever you like, you can honestly do the rear one yourself with one tool most likely. The front one is much more involved. Expect to pay at least 2 hours labor at a shop


But yeah, if you put on an Eibach front sway bar and you get noisy endlinks.....well....youre beat. Itll be coming out of your pocket
