Roos85 · May 4th, 2008, 02:08 AM

tom2000r · May 4th, 2008, 02:11 AM

I was afraid you were going to say that.....lol

Looks 100x easyer then the stock one! just have a few jacks ready for your engin incase the new K member fits diffrently then the old one. Might have to move it around alittle but unlikely. Thats a nice set up though man, will drop a good 50-100lbs :p

I put the same kmember on a few months ago. It gave it a lot more room, but now its a bitch to jack up the car. I use to jack it up on the kmember but now I have to do it on the frame.

How much weight did you lose? Was it a QA1, UPR, etc? No issues on the install or on the road?

I want to do a Tube K, but I've just been afriad of bad fitment or too much weakness for a DD.

looks like a nice set up ,,post some feed back on how well it helps or if it makes alot of noise while driving

97Cobra · May 5th, 2008, 09:16 AM

NICE! I put an UPR Tubular K kit on my car aswell! fun stuff! I put LTs and cat less mid the same time. and it took me a lil longer because i did mine in winter in a freezing garage having to stop every hr to see if i could get the feeling back in my hands. the temp was 0 - -10 when i was doing all this. lol

i read on another forum that if you get a QA1 k-member and don't do the control arms, it sticks the stock control arms out like 2 in and plays hell with your alignment, ever heard that?
