Hey Folks,

There's a new company making light K-members, nice control arms, strut rods, and such.

I met this guy at the Pittsburgh Chrysler Classic last year and have had some communications with him. Seems like a very nice and capable guy with some well made parts.

I am contemplating getting one of his early A-body K-members, which he claims is 14lbs lighter than the stocker. All stock components are said to bolt right up. He is also working on tubular lower control arms - interesting.

Comments, rumors, questions?

Cheers,

Lou

Thats nice looking stuff!

I wonder about a sway bar mount.....always the early A question.

SB and BB only? Doesn't look to be set up for a slant.

Swaybar? Can you mount one?

Might suggest that he revise the idler to be a through bolt one, and supply a '68-'72 idler. It would fix one of the shortcomings of the stock k-frame that he doesn't address. Funny thing is, his rendering looks to have the through bolt idler, but the picture of one installed still has the stud mount idler.

I would imagine you could specify late or early style idler arm. Would be nice to use the 68-up pitman and idler on the early cars.

He told me he can do /6 engine mounts, and that might be what his are to begin with anyway, since he includes SB or BB mount hardware with the full kits.

Yeah, on the sway bar mounts, you'd have to fab those yourself, or tell him what to add on and maybe he'd do it. I don't think it would be hard to add them if you can weld or have a good shop nearby.
