So you'd get the k-member in cromoly right? Other front end weight mods could be: light battery (dyna bat), empty windshield fluid, !PS, Free ram air, !AIR, !EGR, skinnes, one of those 13 pound lift off hoods, !Fog lights, headers, asp pulley, front sway bar, those badass strange brakes or erispeed or something, !power steering cooler, !A/C, ummm thats all i can think of <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Tubular a-arms drop around another 12-15lbs per pair. Don't know about the upper control arm's weight.

Ditto, do the mild steel for street applications.
