K Member and A arms PA/BMR/Pro Fab What one? What would you go with? Is one better than the other and why? CM or MS and why? My car sees about 4000 miles a year on the street and lots of track time. I want to lighten up the front end.
Thanks for any input.

if i ever get oneits gonna be BMR or the PA racing brand. Ive heard rumors that some others, wont mention names, have crappy welds. BMR has the best ive seen on local cars. Pa racing is a close second in my book.. BMR is like 4 pounds lighter which is why i rank that first lol. But both have good welds and hold up pretty well

i'll believe it when i see it on a scale!!! and i will go with a ProFab K-member in C/M with no mounts, and may be lightest yet....haha. i know a guy who's been racing seriously for many years, including his wife, who will run 7's next year, and he runs the ProFab setup. gives a big thumbs up on their welds, or he wouldn't run in the low 8's with BIIIIIIIGGG wheels up action. if he can do that and not break one, because i asked what he thought of them when some on here discredited them, i have no reservations running their units. besides that, Vernon has cleaned house over there and gotten rid of the slackers. can't run a reputable company with people who don't give a damn, right??? and when he first had a couple problems with the clamshells not lining up right, he told all to send them back at his expense, and sent out new ones, also at his cost. he's a stand up guy if you ask anyone who's dealt with him.

Dave
ps- and i plan on running well into the 8's myself with their k' and a-arm package.

Don't do BMR, you can't run solid mounts if you do. I would do AJE if I had to do it over again, I have a PA now and it fits great. I have the BMR control arms and they suck.
