Default newest aje kmember in fox with lsx
Hi I was wondering if anyone has info on the newest batch of the aje tubular kmember in respect to any issues in an 87-93 fox while using stock A-arms (aka control arms) with stock coil springs AND stock power rack w/stock fox steering shaft.

Thank you

My buddy just got a new AJE k member, and even though we don't have everything final bolted in it looks like a set of 98-02 f body pacesetter long tube headers are going to work with some minor modifications (small dents and dimples). Once we get everything in it's final resting place I will shoot some pictures of how everything worked out.

I just put an AJE in my 90 fox. I was originally going to use factory springs and A arms but got a great deal on some coilovers and went with qa1 eco a arms for 150. Everything bolted up good. Stock power rack went on fine and steering shaft bolted up. You have to pull the shaft from the firewall about 3/4 of an inch with a prybar though. It telescopes.

I plan on using the truck intake with a 2.5 cowl. I don't have it all together yet though. Engine and trans are in but fabricating the turbo kit now.

Im using the stock truck intake...it fit with no issues. i just remove the evap port sensor and plugged it. i shaved the intake for cleaner look and a bit more clearance with stock hood.

Oh wow that's impressive how much room you have, are you using aje engine mounts as well?
Mine is itching to go in, it's an lq4 from a savanna van but they seem the same intakes as from a truck
