C8 Corvette Z06 / ZR1 / Grand Sport Front Lift Lowering Kit (2023+)

Lower your C8 Corvette Z06, ZR1, or Grand Sport while retaining your factory front lift functionality with the Paragon Performance Front Lift Lowering Kit. Designed specifically for Corvettes equipped with the OEM front axle lift system, these precision-machined lowering collars allow you to achieve a more aggressive stance without eliminating the convenience of the factory lift feature.

Manufactured in the USA from 6061 aluminum, these lowering collars provide approximately 3/4-inch to 1-inch of front-end lowering, allowing you to reduce the factory wheel gap and create a more performance-focused appearance.

Adjustable Front Ride Height

The Paragon Performance Lowering Kit is engineered to correct the factory ride height of front lift-equipped C8 Corvettes.

Unlike C8 models without front lift, vehicles equipped with the factory front axle lift system cannot achieve the same lowering adjustment using the original front suspension configuration alone.

These lowering collars address that limitation, allowing you to achieve a lower, more aggressive stance.

Lowering Options:

• Approximately 0.75" Drop: Comparable to the factory lowering adjustment available on non-front-lift models.

• Up to Approximately 1" Drop: Depending on vehicle configuration and final adjustment.

• Optional 3/8" Riser Shims: Allow a smaller drop or additional ride-height fine-tuning.

When combined with the factory rear adjustable collars, the kit allows you to achieve a more balanced front-to-rear stance.

Retains Factory Front Lift Functionality

One of the biggest advantages of this kit is that it preserves the factory front lift system.

Your Corvette will still be able to raise its front suspension to help clear driveways, speed bumps, and other obstacles.

This allows you to enjoy a lower ride height during normal driving without sacrificing the convenience of the OEM front lift feature.

Precision CNC-Machined Aluminum Construction

Designed in-house using CAD software, the lowering collars were developed and tested through multiple prototype stages before final production.

Each collar is precision CNC-machined from 6061 aluminum for strength, durability, and accurate fitment.

The collars feature a black anodized finish with a laser-engraved Paragon Performance logo for a clean, professional appearance.

An aluminum brake line bracket spacer is also included to help reduce brake line tension after lowering.

Optional 3/8" Riser Shims

For owners who want a more conservative drop, Paragon offers optional 3/8-inch riser shims.

These allow you to reduce the amount of lowering rather than committing to the full 3/4-inch drop.

They can also be used to fine-tune ride height when combining the collars with aftermarket lowering springs.

Note: The riser shims are optional and must be selected when ordering.

Optional Installation Tools

Specialty installation tools are available to make the installation process easier.

Magnetic Ride Socket

A specialty socket used during suspension disassembly. Many standard tool sets do not include this socket.

Magnetic Ride De-Pin Tool

Designed to simplify removal of the Magnetic Ride connector pins during installation.

Both tools are optional and must be selected separately.

Installation

The Paragon Performance Front Lift Lowering Kit installs into the factory front suspension assembly.

Installation requires suspension disassembly and appropriate spring compression equipment.

Estimated Installation Time: 3 Hours

Installation Difficulty: Easy to Moderate, according to the manufacturer.

Professional installation is recommended, particularly for vehicles equipped with Magnetic Ride Control and front lift.

Following installation, the vehicle's ride height, brake line clearance, and suspension operation should be checked. A wheel alignment is recommended after suspension height changes.

Why You Need This

The C8 Corvette Z06, ZR1, and Grand Sport are designed for exceptional performance, but their factory ride height can leave more wheel gap than some owners prefer.

The Paragon Performance Front Lift Lowering Kit provides a straightforward way to achieve a lower, more aggressive stance while retaining the factory front lift system.

With CNC-machined 6061 aluminum construction, adjustable lowering options, and compatibility with the OEM suspension, this kit is an excellent solution for owners who want improved exterior styling without sacrificing front lift functionality.

Whether you're completing a wheel and tire setup or refining your Corvette's overall stance, these lowering collars provide the flexibility to achieve the look you're after.
