So I was looking around online today and came across the tubular suspension stuff for A bodies. My k frame is in questionable condition, and I brainstormed about one of those tubular frames. My question was: Is a tubular k frame compatable with factory components? Likewise, would tubular UCA's, or other tubular parts br compatable with a factory frame? Probably a no brainer but I'm just curious lol. Thanks
 
The qa1 tubular k frame is compatible with factory components. Only saves a few pounds and from what I've heard doesn't allow for much more clearance. Costs around $600 too.

I have a Qa1 and all factory parts work fine(72 and older). It does provide quite a bit more clearance around the engine but no great loss of weight though ~5lbs

74 control arms wouldn't work with a qa1 k frame? I'll be switching the control arms from my 74 bbp disc brake dart to my 72 drum brake dart.

Control arms work fine because all Abodies 67-76 are identical.
The Qa1 K frame uses 72 and older motor mounts is all
