how are k-members installed? is it bolt in or weld in? which is the best one?

In third gens, they bolt in.

awesome, thx. do you know of any good brands or are they all pretty much the same? also a-arm brands.

Go to post #6, under 'suspension': http://www.thirdgen.org/techboard/af...lers-good.html (List of online retailers with good 3rd gen selection?)

How hard are they to replace?

Are they typically a bolt in and go type deal?

Not very hard, yes bolt in and go, no special tools. A lift is a big plus but they can also be done in a driveway.

thank you for all the information. which k-member would you recomend?

lol well I always recomend what I sell/build before anything else. Stop by the site in my sig and take a look, maybe you'll find something you like.

lol, thats what i meant. there are 4 or 5 on your site. i dont know which is bet or which fits my application. i essentially have a bone stock 85 camaro. future 350sbc swap, and suspension swap. all the old stuff goes. im looking mainly for weight reduction, and suspension efficiency.

Ah sorry lol, The KM007 is the first thing that pops into my head. Now if you are wanting weight reduction we have the KM007-1 that is for a pinto rack to get rid of all your power steering. Also are you planning on going with coilovers or keeping the stock style setup? Either way we sell the spring pockets (USP001) so you can retain the stock style suspension but if you ever want to go coilover then you just take them out. Let me know if you have any more questions.
