How hard is it to change out the K-member?
Thinking about some weight reduction and I was thinking about a BMR K-member.
How hard is it to change?
Any web site how to's?
and do you have to do the A-Arms at the same time? (Cost you know.)
Just thinking right now.

If you're drag racing only and don't plan to drive aggressively on the street, then you're okay with an aftermarket K-member, but beware, I had two different ones from two different brands, and they both broke around the lower left hand area, so I simply replaced the factory K-member.
Before installing them, I weighed both for a comparison, and only ~10lbs were saved bewteen all of them. When I did install the aftermarket K-members, the front sure started to flex afterwards.

to me 25 lbs is not worth the problems that might come from the kmember
if you drive your car on the street i would not get one
remove the wieght in other places if you want to
