a-arms???
i just did a search and couldn't find an answer. here is my question, if you can't use aftermarket drop springs on tubular a-arms with spring boxes do you have to go with a coil over kit or is there a company that makes a-arms with spring boxes set up for aftermarket springs? i don't want to have to go with coil overs i still want to use my springs that i have. i want to use the tubular k-member with tubular a-arms. any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks!

I think all of the tubular k member makers for our cars offer them with A-arms that will work with the stock mcpherson strut/spring setup. Give some of them a call and see what they recommend running. You may be able to keep the lowering springs you have now if not drastically different than than stockers.

it looks like those a-arms will fit aftermarket springs. i guess i will have to call and make sure before i buy them. have you seen the k-member and the a-arms sold as a set though?

They wont. Do a search for my post and I posted a letter from BMR stating that they will NOT fit. Just stock. They even said stock is kinda tight.
This weekend our at Carlisle I talked with UMI Performance and they said that a full K member, A arm line will be released in the fall that WILL WORK with differant spring combos.
