how much did it weigh?
i didnt weigh it but MM&FF weighed the same kit and it was 67lbs. lighter than stock. they say 100lbs gets you a .1 drop in et. but when you drop the right weight it could producebetter results.the kit with tube-a arms, coil over springs, kmember and adjuster nut cost $699

UPR. They make great stuff, they are Chromoly which makes an already light set-up lighter. Griggs makes another good set-up also. My own experience has been with UPR and I have had NO problems with fitment or ease of installation. On my fourth one.

alot of companies starting making them like that so you have to buy a arms too. or grind them, which i dont recomend doing.
i bought the whole kit from qa1 , its alot cheaper than buying it in pieces
everything bolted right on, no problems.
upr is good too.
i recomend upr for the antiroll bar kits, it comes with uppers and lowers, anti roll bar.
and it has the good bushings that wont wear out, and get slack in them.
i got my kit new at a race straight from upr, for a little under 580.00
but i recomend upr for the rear and qa1 for the front, thats just because ive installed both, and i didnt have any problems, like i have out of other brands.

damn i think UPR is the way to go... can't beat a k-member, coil overs, and A-arms for $50 more than just a k-member from MM. UPR looks like the way im goin. Thanks, as always.
