UPR Chrome Moly Tubular K-Member with Spring Perches (2005-79-SP) - 1979-1995 Mustang
Upgrade your Mustang’s front suspension while retaining factory-style coil springs with the UPR Chrome Moly Tubular K-Member with Spring Perches. Designed for enthusiasts who want improved strength, weight reduction, and clearance without converting to coilovers, this system delivers modern performance while maintaining a familiar suspension setup. Ideal for street and performance builds alike, it offers the perfect balance of durability and simplicity.
Constructed from premium 4130 seamless chrome moly tubing, this K-member is lighter and stronger than factory components, reducing weight by approximately 32 pounds while increasing structural integrity. The included bolt-on spring perches allow you to retain OEM A-arms and factory-style coil springs, making this a great option for those not ready to switch to a coilover setup. Precision TIG welding, reinforced motor mount pads, and improved header and oil pan clearance ensure this system performs under demanding conditions.
