new QA1 K Frame

Granny's Duster said

Well garyfish, how did the install finally turn out? What did you wind up doing about the tube at the front where the bolt goes through? I just bought a QA1 k member and lower control arms, hope to be installing them soon. BTW, I noticed magnum force uses the spherical rod ends, and I was looking at their mounting system in front and as far as I can tell it looks like a piece of bar stock with a hole drilled in the middle. A very nice k member conversion, but it's $3650. I like the idea of being able to use some of the parts I already have.

I don't know exactly why my reply didn't show up here, but I'll try again. I didn't really have time to fix the issue before the weather rolled in, but I did have time to better look at it, and make a list of things that might be addressed. In the mean time, I meet a guy named Rich Klein who owns a autobody shop. He has the ability to pull frames there. So were going to square everything up.
But even he says, once it's all torqued down, and tight, there's no guarantee things won't shift around under hard driving. Which is something I was thinking too. ( a few months back.) So we're going to try to address that to the best of our ability, and hopefully come up with a good fix. In the meantime, the body has a few minor quirks that I want to change, and fix, so some of those parts, are at the body shop being modded, until the weather breaks, and than we'll get back to the frame.
