Default ordered my k-member

well it was a between aje and D&D so i called both of them. when i called aje and finally got connected to tech they acted like they didn't even care so i was like i'll think about it. when i called D&D it was a completely different story they were asking everything they could about my car to get the best spring rate for my car and told me that it would help save about 120lbs off the front of my car. Also when i asked about fitment issues they said it was impossible unless my car has been wrecked or something of that nature.

so needless to say i went with D&D they said it would take about a week for it and then a week for shipment. Also this weekend i am buying my stroker this weekend and will have to wait on shipment for it.

so all in all i need 3 more things to get my stang back together the k-member kit, stroker kit, and finally my MAS from summit. i cannot wait till finally drive it again!

Yeah I have the D&D and it handles so much better and tighter. It'll stiffen your car up a lot too. Make sure that you have good motor mounts. Don't make the same mistake as me. ha ha ha I started doing it to realize that my motor mounts were all torn and then I had to wait to go get new motor mounts. It was a little bit of a mess, but purely my fault.

I appreciate the compliments 4Eyedfreak.

And Jasper, like 4eyedfreak said, I am more than willing to give you any help needed. Please don't hesitate to ask away.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out. [sm=smiley20.gif]

DnDmotorsports.com is the main page.

Other places sell for them as well. You might be able to find a better deal. They sell mostly through distributors. But also sell direct. Good stuff. I really like mine.

I ordered mine straight from D&D and it arrived in about 7-9 days (cant remember exactally) but it was quick. Also, their customer service was excellent and they really seemed to give a sh*t (unlike other places). I cant wait to install it and order the rest of my suspension form them. Good luck w/ the K member and good choice!
