tubular non-coilover suspension

Does anyone have experience with AJE suspension products? I was on JEGS website, and ran across that brand. They offer a tubular k-member and a-arms that don't require a coil-over swap. I don't feel like doing a full coil-over swap because I have no desire to slam the car to the ground, but I do like the idea of the reduced weight from using a tubular suspension set-up.

Re: tubular non-coilover suspension

I ran an AJE k member for a while but had issues with their a-arms. I had a ball joint break off which messed up a fender. Mind you, this was 150 miles after installation. They replaced the a-arm and sent some cash to have my fender fixed so their customer service was great. However, a few months later, I was under the car checking the suspension and I noticed cracks in numerous welds on the K. I immediately ordered the MM HD K member and never looked back.

If you are going to drive the car on the street, look for something with a bit more gusseting and overall strength.

All MM front tubular suspension products require a coil-over conversion though, don't they?

Re: tubular non-coilover suspension

Mm has pretty detailed info on their site, I wanna say you can run stock arms and keep your springs but not sure.

Steeds was making some more of theirs not sure if hey have any left but you can keep the stock arms and springs
