after countless hours i finnaly have my k-member in. I started at like 5 or so and got done at 4am. now I have use of air tools, a lift and my motor was already out of the car! it fit the chassis well but damn the control arms would not go in for shiz!!!!!!!!!!! i ended up cutting a huge "window" in my control arm to make them fit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it took me several fittments to get it right ! now I have to box in the bottom of the control arm to strengthen it back up. I had to take a big chunk out for it to work properly!!! all it would do is bind on the main hoop where it bends upwards. i am not a happy camper. I will be calling them to let them know it didnt fit for crap.......

now there customer service was good to me I will sya that. I had to swap this one for one I had that had no spring perches. so I cant complain about that...

I am still very aggrivated, and tired.........

I know people have had huge problems with theirs. I have read all the threads.

I just want to say that I bought mine way before I knew about TGO and its vast ocean of wisdom. I got it off ebay shipped to my door with perches and A-arms for $575. I have my motor out and tossed mine in, in about 45 minutes max. And that is only cuz i had to go back in the house to find the right bolts.

Fitment was perfect and the A-arms sit in there just right. The only thing I had to do was lube up a bushing to have it slide in better. THat was it.

plenty of pics on my site

Just my 2 cents.

 

Just wait till you try to turn it that rack has a turning radius of a mack truck..

 

Dunno if you are reffering to me, but I am not running a rack. I am running an aftermarket manual streering box. If you are reffering to the guy that had the bad experience then my bad for butting in.

 

have to agree, i guess those of us who got in early were lucky.

 

well part 2 is here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! after another many ours I finnaly got the motor in. it took me 4-6 hours just to set the damn motor in the car!!!!!! the motor mount bolts would not line up for ****!!!!! I ended up having yo use 2 diff bolts on each side to get it to work! this pa **** is not worth a damn!

 

sux man. Hope it all works out for you. I will be tossing my new motor in soon. i will post how easy it is to put in.
