DOES THE HDK SUSPENSION K-MEMBER HANDLE BETTER THAN A T-BAR SUSPENSION?

Pretty sure Denny would put me at the bottom for knowledge. :D

But I disagree, both with where you rank me and with the need for special knowledge and such. There are 3 parts total that get welded (k-frame and 2 LCA's), and the rest isn't any more complex than a standard rebuild. Making it handle really isn't any secret sauce, at least anymore. The build is pretty basic and common knowledge now.

And I did have a v8 k-frame laying around, but only because I was keeping my eye out for one prior to that. But how is that different than a guy that needs to find one? Even better, don't go looking for one at all and fix/use/upgrade the one in the imaginary car you bought.

And not sure why garage space is a requirement.

I'm glad you like your setup, I truly am. Just don't try and make a TB sound like the impossible dream. Doing so is close to what I told Rusty when I said that there are some that say the only way to make it handle is with an aftermarket kit. It's not that hard.

Special Knowledge would include knowing how to weld, especially with dealing with structural and suspension components.

Your definition of a standard rebuild is much different than mine. If you are just replacing worn factory components, I agree. It's when you start replacing the components with a mix of other Mopar models and as well utilizing aftermarket parts to rebuild the suspension, that's where you guys have the knowledge and the edge over most of us. Its also where a lot of us investigate other options such as RMS and HDK. Its not that the TB system is better, worse or the impossible dream, it's that buying and installing a very good aftermarket system that frees up space and also works extremely well is a great alternative and isn't that much more expensive.
