Default Tubular K-member tips?
I got my suspension stuff in today, I figured I am going to tackle the project this winter. I already planned on pulling the motor so ill just do it at that time.. My question is can anyone offer suggestions/guidance who has actually done one before? Thanks all

the one I bought and the one PRO bought didn't have all that much wiggle room... a tape measure is all you really need and measure cross ways and pick two equal points on the body that you measure too, I have an alignment rack so it wasn't much of an issue
