I've heard of or know more than one person who has ran them like this on their c5 without cracking. My friend had his 99 FRC without the bolts for two years, then pulled the uncracked leaf springs and sold them when he switched to coil-overs.

I've seen a cracked leaf from it before. Your choice to roll the dice.

Ryne really knows his **** about vette's, he was trying to help.

3- Thou shalt not feed thy Corvette budget-grade fuel.

4- Thou shalt treat thy Vette with respect; great power, great responsibility.

5- Thou shalt keep thy Corvette clean and waxed at all times, yet thou shalt not bring thy Corvette to an automatic car wash.

6- Thou shalt park thy Corvette in such a manner as to protect her tender fenders.

7- Thou shalt blow out carbon with a high-speed run as required.

8- Thou shalt not cruise on an unpaved road.

9- Neither friend, nor foe, nor even thy spouse may drive thy Corvette without first showing proper reverence.

10- Each Vette is an individual work of art; judge not lest ye might be judged.
