{"product_id":"tubular-steel-front-suspension-k-member","title":"Tubular Steel Front Suspension K-Member","description":"The Maximum Motorsports K-member is a high-strength tubular steel crossmember engineered to replace the factory front suspension unit in 1979-1995 Mustangs equipped with 5.0L pushrod, 302, 351W, 4.2L, 3.8L, or 2.3L engines. By utilizing larger tube sizes and thicker-gauge metal with advanced cross-bracing, this unit provides superior structural rigidity, resulting in more precise handling and improved braking stability. The design is approximately 26% lighter than the OEM K-member, making it a performance-oriented upgrade suitable for drag racing, road course use, and daily driving.\n\nPlease note that stock front control arms are not compatible with this K-member due to the size of the required pivot bushings; aftermarket tubular front control arms must be used. Additionally, installing a 4.6L\/5.4L modular, 5.0L Coyote, or LSX engine in a 1979-1995 Mustang is not compatible with this unit; use the MMKM-2.1 for those engine swaps.\n\nInstallation requires several supporting components, including tubular front control arms, a front coil-over conversion kit with high-performance struts, caster camber plates, a bolt-through-style bumpsteer kit, short swaybar endlinks, and MM aluminum steering rack bushings. Depending on the chosen control arms, front swaybar relocation brackets and universal swaybar bushings may also be required. Professional installation or following the provided sequential instructions is recommended to ensure proper fitment and performance.","brand":"Maximum Motorsports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52662955475256,"sku":"MMKM-1","price":837.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687503141.jpg?v=1784321999","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/tubular-steel-front-suspension-k-member","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
