Default Coil over/ K-Member Question For 92 LX

Hey, I was thinking of getting a K-member for my mustang and realized that all the k-members I was looking at need new control arms. The control arms for the k-members dont have and place to mount a stock shock and spring (spring perch I believe its called)so I need to convert over to coilovers and I was wondering how this kit is.
Part # : COP-2

I was also wondering if you can use the stock chamber plate with that kit. Currently I have the engine removed and want to do everything while I have easy access, the only upgrade I have done right now to the suspension is the Tokico HP struts and Eibach springs Part # : HPK211 from you guys. I figure I would have to get rid of the front springs and get a set of coil over springs. I am also going with manual steering and have the rack sitting in the garage, but didnt want to install it until after i get a K-member.

I have been looking at the MM A-Arms (MMFCA-4) and was wondering how they are compared to the QA1's
Although you guys dont well the K-member I am going to be using, here is a link just in case

Thanks for your help
Brad

You cannot use the stock camber plates with a coil-over kit. A coil-over kit adds much more strut to the camber plate and strut mount area. You need a good aftermarket plate to handle this.

MM chassis products in general are of the highest quality. There is not really a better product out there. MM is really at the top when it comes to quality. I've heard mixed reviews about QA1 products in general. QA1 does make good components, such as rod ends, but I cannot vouch for their tubular stuff.

Sincerely,
