It had it's moments. Had to cut off the ball joints to slip the spindle off the control arms. Other than that and getting the steering shaft color bolt to start...it wasn't bad.

Do you have long tubes? If you do did it give them any extra clearance. I've been eyeing the upr kit for some time especially since its chromoly. Was there any fitment issues with the k member itself?
