DOES THE HDK SUSPENSION K-MEMBER HANDLE BETTER THAN A T-BAR SUSPENSION?

What were the measurable stiffness improvements from your modifications?

I'll have to look it up. This pic is one test I ran. I calculated an amount of inward force the k member might see on the upper shock/springs mounts, ignoring any contribution the body might provide when bolted together, as before and after was my goal. In this pic I believe you are seeing 425? lbs pulling both mounts straight inward as a portion of the force they will see with the angled springs, and measured movement before and after modification vs relaxed. The difference was not startling, but enough for me to justify the effort, and I suspect way more then say any LCA reinforcement will ever measure.:lol:

Sorry, I couldn't resist.
