new QA1 K Frame

Well garyfish, how did the install finally turn out? What did you wind up doing about the tube at the front where the bolt goes through? I just bought a QA1 k member and lower control arms, hope to be installing them soon. BTW, I noticed magnum force uses the spherical rod ends, and I was looking at their mounting system in front and as far as I can tell it looks like a piece of bar stock with a hole drilled in the middle. A very nice k member conversion, but it's $3650. I like the idea of being able to use some of the parts I already have.
