Guest Removed Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 drag race only type k member...not durable for heavy street use. they make great stuff.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinisterSS Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 I have that same k-member on my car, all I can say so far is there's no mounting points for your brake lines, the stock k-member is hollow so its not as heavy as it looks, its actually a bit lighter than the tubular k-member, the advantage is you'll have easy access to install long tube headers, FYI the majority of the weight is from the lower control arms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
