Just installed Profab K-member and Lower A-Arms
Just finished up installing the tubular K-member and A-arms today.
The quality seems to be really good, welds all looked nice. Fitment was great, maybe a little too good.
Was pretty hard to get my power steering unit lined up exactly, and the A-arms were hard to get into the K member correctly. The enlongated bolt holes are only about an 1/8'' smaller than the rod ends, so when trying to slide them in usually one side would drop down into the hole and be cockeyed.
A few annoying things but not terrible: The stock front 4 bolts that hold the k-member on couldnt be reused. I had to get some shorter ones of the same size from a hardware store. Also the stock bolts used to hold the shock on the A-arms wouldnt work. Luckily i was able to use the old bolts that held the motor mounts onto the stock K-member.
Overall im happy. Havent had time to find something to anchor my brakelines too yet, but things look good. Definetly is a huge improvement on being able to get to things to work on.
Going to get it alligned next week, hopefully they dont have any trouble with the A-arm rod ends being gay in the bolt slots like i did.

I have been looking for the ProFab k member and a arms. What is the site I can find them on. All I have been able to find is the PA racing and the AJE.

What's the benefit of going w/ setup over BMR, Spohn, or AJE??
My roomate just tossed in his BMR K-member and upper/lower A-arms, and the fit is quite good.
