Default UMI K-member and alignment??

Anyone have any problems aligning there car after a k-member install? I have the UMI k-member and will need to get an alignment soon. I was told that it would be hard with the aftermarket k-member.

You shouldn't have any trouble at all. It will be the exact same as aligning the car with the factory K-Member, there is no difference. We also lengthened the lower A-Arm slots for addtional adjustment if needed. Everything should go smooth for you.

Hope that helps!

Thanks. I was just told that some of the tools they use to do the alignment wouldn't work on aftermarket k-members because some of the holes are different or something. I just wanted to make sure. Thanks...and I have the k-member and a-arms and love them.

Well I am not sure on the tools depending on what machine or how they do it I guess. One thing to watch is... the last place that did one for us used a pry bar to move the A-Arm and chipped them up pretty bad. Maybe warn them of this and make them becareful.

Glad you like everything!
