Tubular K-member

Needs me some feedback on them. Ive got a granatelli kit in the works for the 87 tbird I was wondering who all had the tubular kmembers and if they had any fitment issues or any guidence for when I start tackling the swap.

Input is appreciated

There are a few guy here that have them, I think you need spacers where it mounts to the lower part of the sub-frame. I could be wrong, I dont have one, but I did reseach it cause I was thinking about it also.

I made my own K member and arms. But even using a stock one as a jig i still ended up using spacers.
Most K members i have seen have been 95% fit with a little tinkering.
