i'm pretty sure ist the thing under the front that does something with the wheels...but then again thats as best i can describe it...so i need to find out how hard it would be to fix because there is a 96 mustang v6 5 speed for 400 with one that is bent and well if i am able to check it out and thats all thats wrong with it then i would get it and fix it...its the only way i can get a better car is to find ones thats broken and fix it because...well i don't have the money to buy a really nice car.....so...if anyone can help that would be great

If the K member is bent then there is a very good chance that there is more wrong with the suspension. Check it out real good before you buy it.

If the K-member is bent there's a real chance that car has been smashed to pieces.

If you need a new K-Member for a 302 I got the stock stamped one after swapping for a Tubular.
Still in good condition, and will let go for $50

K member = K frame It is the engine cradle basically on a uni body car.

If that is messed up the car was hit hard and will require quite a bit of straightening.

You will end up spending quite a bit of money to fix it. There is a reason it is 400bux, because it will cost 1000s to fix it.
