I see it still has the torsion bars so can I assume this is for street use? I really like the looks of it and would have to do one for my Dart if Bob considers this streetable. Thanks for the great pics.

I was on the fence with his or Alterkation but I guess I dont need to ask for a price on a full tubular K member. Man things are out of hand these days...

That HAS TO BE a misunderstanding on pricing??? I "think" that quote would be for his tubular front end with rack and pinion and coil over. Definitely not the "lighten" stock K member. The mods he makes with the stock K member are great, able to remove oil pan with out jacking up the motor. Plus a big weight savings!You need to contact him and get the pricing straightened out, his work is first class. 6393457-frontsuspension.jpg (410 downloads)

I asked him again but didn't seem to get through???? It was kind of a quick retort that I got and I was really surprised. I really wanted Bob to do this for me because so many guys on here raved about his work... Brian Brian Hafliger
