Pitman arm is hitting tortion bar! Help?

autoxcuda said

The whole lower control arm was moving all over because of the busted K-member hole and bushing.

The centerlink is not connected to the torsion bar. The centerlink is connected to the pitman and idlers which then connects to the K-member which then connects to the frame rails.

What would you do about the bad K-frame? Myself I would replace it with a good used V8 K-frame because of possible metal fatigue and another future failure.

Correct me if I am wrong but the way the headers hang down so low to the ground. I would say these aren't the correct headers for this car and they will still be in the same position in relation to the center link when this car is reassembled? Will the manual steering gear box change anything as far as the center link position?
