Default Need help identifying make of this K Member and Arms

Bought a K Member and A Arms from a memeber, cant find the pm/email but doesnt look like the PA racing model not BMR. Light as hell thats for sure, supposed to be CM.
1) Who made these?_______

2) Also, in the center pic, what is the black bar welded onto the drivers side of the K Member for?

3) I didnt get any bolts with this K&A, so will I need to buy some, if so, sizing would be helpful? (seen where some K's wont use the stock bolts).

Thanks,
Charlie

1. The a-arms look identical to my PA Racing ones... the K-member also looks very similar to my PA racing one.

2. The black bar looks to be a mount for a manual steering rack

3. That k-member looks as though it will use the stock bolts everywhere.

Ok, thanks guys. It was sold as one, IIRC, but I bought my brother one for his birthday, or was it Christmas, anyway, his has a plate on it where the motor mounts go that has the PA cutout in it. So mine I figure might just be a lil older model. And thats great news that I can reuse the stock bolts, read about how some brand or another had to buy separate bolts and crap. I like the fact it has the brake line already ran on it and tidy looking too. So, as soon as my wifes trailblazer gets shipped here, I can swap the engine, K, Arms, TC and add new nitrous kit. Thanks a bunch guys.

Looks like the seller left the lower portion of the OEM motor mount bolted to the plate. You will use the OEM bolts. Looks like my PA A-arms and K-member.

Is there any other lower mounts, other than newer style where its welded on, to lighten it up a little? Not sure, but those lowers look heavy. I have Poly motor mounts, but the lower shell looks like so much weight. Thanks a bunch guys.

I wouldnt have a problem doing that Tom if I ran some numbers closer to yours but this is still a daily driven go to work go to races car...until later. I was thinking someone might have made a CM mount to replace the lower stock heavy one. Oh well. Hopefully will get this in before 1 July. Have a lot to install at once, so should be a fun night.
Thanks,
Charlie
