Front Cross-Member / A-arms

In somebody's post to one of these messages was a link to a shop that made tubular front crossmembers and a-arms. I cant find it again.

Any one know?

in addition to tube k members, control arms, coil over kits, and lightweight coil over strut replacements that incorporate a 2" drop spindle. his whole kit drops 160 lbs off the nose of a 3rd gen f body. call him up for info; the website is weak.

i will say that AJE makes very nice stuff but his strut assemblies are expensive and i dont believe that you can drop that much weight off the front of the car w/o converting to rack/pinion. if you convert with a k memeber/a arms/coilovers, yes it is possible. it not....i dont see where 160lbs comes from. more like 70-80lb
also, for those wanting the ultimate in weight reduction www.paracing.net is going to offer a kit to convert to manual rack/pinion and you dont have to run a motorplate. you will however need to get their k member. i will be doing this and let you know how much weight i lose
