Hey guys ,Ive got a UMI K member that wasnt working to well with my APS kit and was forceing my turbo inlet hose into my steering knuckle. Nothing wrong with it,I should have just bought and used the recomended BMR K member for this kit, but tryed doing things my way LOL The passanger side steering rack tab was a tiny bit high ,,about the width of the tab itself ,.which your average guy wouldnt have even sweated ,,,but im **** like that LOL So verses cutting the hole tab off i just removed the bottom one since everthing was lined up fine with the top tab and put the same thickness tab under it and welded as a shim, installed the steering rack then had the new UMI bottom tab welded back on . Everthings fine with this K member. Nothing wrong but the inlet hose problem i have since upgradeing to the reinforced hoses I wouldnt recomend this if running a APS and actually wouldnt sell it to you if you were LOL BMR has tweeked therer K member alittle recently to fix this problem for us APS guys and is why im now selling it !These are about $515 shipped and i was thinking $250 and the buyer pays shipping. Ive touched up a few scratches on it with the matching paint so it litterally looks brand new and is ready to install! Ill post pics early tomorrow morning for you guys
