is it worth the to you? down worry about what everyone else thinks is worth the money or not. i plan on doing a full tube front suspension set up. fwiw i spent 650 on a be cool rad and 700 on a meziere ele. water pump because i want the very best components on my car. was it worth the money? it was worth every penny to me.

Same thing ShovV said... it was worth it to me to do it all. I wanted the best components for my car also.

I'm happy with my UMI K-member, upper and lower Adj A-arms.

i bought a full bmr setup for my car k member is worth the money since it makes it so much easier to work on the car was the a arms worth the extra money idk but i can tell you this it sure does look nicer

you don't lose much more weight going with the lighter A-arms,but if you aren't on a budget do it.it looks great,but I'm over the top what ever.I like it I need it.

I'm doing everything from UMI and both uppers and lowers will be adjustable and chromoly arms, I figured its only about $160 more for the chromo arms and I have gone this far why not save for a little more and get the stronger parts. Everything I have gotten from UMI has been the best quality IMHO and I can't wait to see the k member in my hands, only a few more weeks

I am having a hard time justifying the arms, the K member cuts 25# and for twice as much I get the a arms and they cut 6 lbs. $500 can cut a lot more weight off all but the most extreme cars. I do realize that the A arms are unsuspended weight, but still I would have to question how much more of a differance it really makes.

Thats your call man, I have every other suspension piece and thats why I decided to make the upgrade, plus when I had my car aligned last time the guy fu(ked my drivers side a arm all up with an air hammer. And the adjustability of the aftermarket arms is another plus in my eyes.

The K-Member itself you will see a substantial amount of weight loss, we have one of the lightest K-members on the market right now. The lower a-arms you will see a couple pounds there and the uppers you just don't see much if any weight loss from swapping them out but the adjustable ends are always a plus to have.
