Default UMI Front assembly

Who has replaced their K-member and upper and lower a arms with UMI units? How did this change the handling of the car on the street and on the track.

Thank

I'm in the middle of installing the UMI k-member. I havn't even got the old one out yet! I am hung up on separating the lower control arm ball joint from the steering knuckle. PITA

Hello,

It will not effect the handling of the of the vehicle unless you want to use the A-Arms to change the caster or camber.

I daily drive this set-up and have noticed no difference ride quality loss as well.

If you have any questions regarding one of our set-ups please feel to contact our technical support.

Thank you!
Ryan
