For 1998-2002 LS1 F-Body owners converting to a Pinto-style steering rack, the BMR Suspension Tubular K-Member (KM013-1H) is the ultimate performance foundation. This unit is engineered to replace the heavy, bulky factory K-member, providing significant weight savings and a massive increase in structural front-end rigidity. It features integrated LS1 engine mounts for a seamless factory engine installation, combined with specialized mounts for Pinto steering rack conversions, making it a critical upgrade for high-performance builds.
The KM013-1H is built from high-strength 1 5/8-inch and 1 1/4-inch DOM steel tubing to withstand intense power and handling demands. Its specialized geometry provides extra clearance for custom turbo kits and offers an additional 1/4-inch of A-arm adjustability, allowing for up to 4 degrees of extra camber. Finished in a rugged, textured black hammertone powdercoat, this K-member combines strength, performance, and a clean aesthetic. Proudly designed and manufactured in the USA!
