no! Did you see dbugs post?

That can't be for a pair. And cirtainly can't be for the correct spring. So it will be even longer than the other 3 slightly lower than stock lowered sports chassis springs already on the car.

If that's for a new spring, it's the wrong spring and you need a pair!

You must replace springs (in fact any suspension component) in pairs  :y

No, because you have been quoted for the wrong part. Nobody other than GM sell the LSC springs, so its a dealer only part. Nothing else will do.

As others have said, springs must be replaced in axle pairs. Not doing so is as dangerous as having a broken spring.
