I'm not to fond of the way it mounts. Slotted in back pair of holes? Really? I'll keep my stock K.





didn't notice that at first. that just doesn't seem right. a slotted hole for a k-frame mount?

seems like a lot of money to only save 1 pound and still have a stock suspension.

glad they beefed it up though. that cap stuff was scary.




When they originally started working with the CAP design it was 20lbs lighter. So I think they have done their homework making sure this is a sound unit. I agree, right off, 1 lb of savings might seem questionable. But when you really dig in and look at the whole package, it makes sense. You would have to do a lot of work to an already 40 year k-member to make it similar in strength. Even then, you can't be positive they are comparable. Some welding, gussets, etc, IMHO, not comparable to a tubular engineered design.
