Are you talking about replacing it with a tubular K member with stock steering and torsion bars or a tubular K member with rack and pinion steering with coil overs in A arms or a strut front end with no K member?
In a track road race car, and wanting to keep a mopar TB front end, 1.24"OD B body TBs weigh approx 13.5lbs ea, I'm increasing the length of my LCA, and needed to maintain an equal wheel rate.
So I'm switching to C body hex sized TB's, and with a hollow TB to save weight and 1.375"OD, they weigh approx 10.5lbs. I'm built them myself, the nub is to be removed after HT, it was more of a hassle than expected to fabricate
