Why don't do your own homework and start looking over there ====>

Want "us" to install it for you too?

If I were you I would focus on durability rather than
the cheapest price.

With an attitude like that... I'm sure sponsors will be lining up to deal with a customer who responds to other people like this.

I usually sit on leather so they kinda glance off....

Lazy turds like you are becoming all too common around here lately. You come to a site LOADED with sponsors that you can actually call, we even provide a nifty function called SEARCH to even further your quest, but yet you expect a sponsor come on here, try to interpret your rambling babble and roll out the red carpet?

Rambling babble? Because I know what I want? Sorry I did t take the time to use punctuation. Your not a sponsor either so why did you even comment and believe me I'm not lazy I just don't like searching the internet for hours when sponsors can come to me if they want to make a sale. And 97 formula of course I'm going to react like I did I don't even know this guy he doesn't know me and his first reaction is I'm lazy you two are ignorant and sound like master certified keyboard technicians! Type type type that's all you do I ask for advice and I get ppl being negative first thing so my bad I'm sorry you are douches!

You just keep digging yourself a deeper and deeper hole. The more you post things like this, the more vendors/sponsors are NOT going to want to work with you. It's their option to come in here and offer something. As a businessman myself, the attitude you've shown in here tells me most likely you're going to be a "problem" customer, and any profit I may make will not be worth the level of effort it will take to "make you happy"; and most likely you will cause me more headaches (and probable lost future sales) than you're worth. It's easier just to avoid customers like you than get involved and then have you "bad mouth" me all over the internet and websites like this one if something doesn't go exactly your way.

Good luck! By the way you present yourself, I'm sure you're more experienced in the world of business, consumer relations/customer relations, etc than I am.....

What are you looking to do with your car? I can put together a custom package for you with the parts you want and save you some good money. As far as durability goes, we have F-body K-members on lock down as we sell hundreds of K-members a year with no failures since the early run redesign. Let me know what you're looking to do and I'll see what I can do. I ask because I may steer you away from uppers and tell you to save your money.

- Kevin

Mwc doesn't recommend road/street use. Amsterdam here too. Usually go around the lake. Do some runs to Saratoga.

What make you not recommend the upper arms ??

There is no reason you can't use our(or anyone else's for that matter) tubular k-member on the streets, but I wouldn't really recommend it for daily drivers that see rough roads and 25K miles in a year. And for anyone driving their car on the streets you want to stay away from chromoly. MWC builds all different types of k-members and are being used by weekend warriors as well as the quickest/fastest stock suspension f-body cars.

Durability is an issue for any tubular part made for these cars no matter who the manufacturer is, and the whole purpose of tubular suspension parts is to lose weight and add easier access to the engine. The factory designed their k-members to be all that and along with it comes the hindrance and the weight. People really need to step back and look at the big picture and what their car is for and not just bolting performance parts on it that may have adverse effects in the long term.

If anyone needs better tech info feel free to call us and ask. The MWC mild steel street type k-members are 375.00 plus freight and include steering mounts and engine stands.
