im trying to find out what all needs to be changed if you're going from a stock k-member to an aftermarket tubular k-member? sometimes i see people say that nothing needs to be changed, and other times i see people say other things need to be changed.

i'd prefer to not have to change anything if at all possible, but im just wanting to learn. thanks

It depends on what kit you buy.

I put an AJE K-member in my 87 and switched to a manual rack and coilovers at the same time. They do make A-arms that have spring perches on them; with those you wouldn't have to change to a coilover. The manual rack isn't a mandatory change.

I had a AJE on my cobra with the factory A-arms but put coilovers on it anyway cause I planed on upgrading them later and it all went together fine.
