Dumbassed WS6 / 1LE questions

[Raven98Z28]

Ok, I'm a dumbass for making an assumption then buying but...
I thought all WS6s were also 1LEs but now I'm not so sure. When I looked at the production codes on my door, I didn't see a 1LE. Does that mean I have some weaker suspension parts under my vehicle? Or does the WS6 mean it also has 1LE parts? Also, how do i know the diff. between say a 1LE swaybar and non-1LE? How many suspension parts did a 1LE code cover? Thanks in advance!

OK now I feel like a real dumbass after going to 1le.net and reading some articles there, I now know that 1LEs weren't a dime a dozen and that I just sold my 98 1LE Z28 Somebody shoot me

WS6 has nothing to do with 1LE.
Older 1LE cars are more favorable than the newer generation.
Real 1LE cars were option-delete type vehicles. Newer 1LE are simply bushing, swaybar, spring type adders.
I wouldn't lose any sleep over selling a '98 with the 1LE option.

Not positive but I believe the stock sway bar may be 19mm, whereas the 1LE may be 21mm.

PM sent.

Not sure about the evolution of the 1LE option (or it's contents), but I do know that in '98 that the 1LE option was only available on Formulas and WS6 was a "mandatory option" to get the 1LE. So at least in '98, all 1LE Firebirds were WS6 Formulas.
