i went ahead and installed my tubular K today, and did some weight measurements for real world.

I pulled all the stock front suspension, put just the k and control arms on my bathroom scales. A whopping 82 lbs




For this swap I used the QA1 k-member w/ spring perches. I got a set of the motorsport control arms (non -tubular) I have my reasons for this. The control arms and tubular K came in at a mere 48lbs.




I didn't get any of the alignment issues, I have heard about. Once all the bolts are started, it can only slide front to back.

It did move my wheels forward but, not even an inch. It also gave another inch of drop to the C-springs




Now all I have to do is let 15lbs of air out of each of my tires and I'll be close to shedding 100lbs today
