Anyone running tube K-member and A-arms?
A guy on the hideout told me that if you run a tube K-member and A-arms, That you'll never be able to keep it aligned. Is there any truth to this? I'm not talking about the ones with adjustable bushings and ball joints, just tubular peices.

Why wouldn't you be able to keep it aligned?
It's not a huge chunk of steel like a factory k-member but it's also not thin tubing that will bend on the first pump you hit.
If you abuse the car enough to cause it to need an alignment, chances are a factory system won't last any better.
