Deadly,

Please call me at the shop 507-243-4104 I would like to know what specific problems you had with your K-member, because this is the first I have heard of a problem with our product. I would expect a phone call from a customer that bought a part that didn't fit properly. I will wait for your call.

Thanks,

Mark Wilkinson

Chef I don't think that Madman actually makes a K member, he uses the Burkhart one on most of his builds if I remember correctly.


A question for the suspsnsion manufacturer's that you probably can answer, could a k member be made that has a removable center? meaning the crossbar, could that be made so that it bolts in, so that you could easily remove the oil pan with the motor in the car?

This of course would be a race only piece, requiring a motor plate like the Burkhart piece and steet use would be a no no I understand that.

You can get the racecraft piece with a lowered center bar for oil pan access. I would give them a call.

Please keep us in mind as well. We offer a never nice set-up intended for drag racing and street driving. Our K-members can also be built with no motor mounts and less powder coat if desired as well.

We also offer some nice front end drag kits seen below. If you have any questions please let me know. Thank you!
