Here you go UMI K-member with the manual steering conversion.

Full build of the car from start to finish.

Very nice piece, the rack is a chrome Flaming River rack, comes with the steering shaft and bump steer kit, and also there's a tow loop on the mount. It was 2.4 lbs ligher than the stock rack so overall weight saving from switching from power to manual steering was 13.5 lbs and the engine bay is a lot more cleaner. Still need to bend the brake lines to fit with the new k-member and re-route the trans lines.







Couple more shots of the interior since I'm getting ready to put in new racing seats. Wolfe chromoly crotch strap and Grant steering wheel were installed a couple months ago.

Our BMR RK002 will work with any k-member that is able to use the stock rack and pinion steering. So you should be able to make it work without any issues. Here is a picture of the BMR RK002.
