i can do that. the problem is a) my rack doesn't have a label, and b) the
stupid gm dealerships can't tell me which of the two is the performance
rack, since they tell me they have the SAME part number. the only external
difference is a 2 character code stamped on a plastic dust shield, which i
DON'T HAVE on my rack.
if gm, in it's infinite wisdom, actually used a different part number for
the different parts for the different suspensions, i wouldn't be having
this trouble!
