Again I never said it was going to be 400 Bucks someone else had posted this somewhere along the way. I stated that this can be done for cheaper. And it's not a matter of having to use your stock spindles it's the ability to that I like.
john sorry to make it sound like you said it would $400 your correct you didn't -- I meant to reference your posts of I think it was (3) mustang options that ranged in the $400 - $600 range.
I agree with you that I like the idea of a aftermarket k - frame that allows the use of the stock parts, but one of the advantages of going to the aftermarket is to run a rack. With the rack you need front steer. By moving the steering to the front this is what opens up the room for a bigger oil pan and better headers, this biggest reason for an aftermarket K.
So $1100 of this k-frame (bare) isn't much of a difference than a Magnumforce, CAP, or RMS bare K-frame. $200-$400 bucks on a bare k-frame is only the difference between low to no overhead cost versus larger overhead cost. Its not a large enough percentage to say we are being gouged.
But YES this is a step in the direction of a cheaper system and is getting the social group of buyers talking.
