Tubular K-Member - SBC / BBC / LT1 / 3.8L V-6 for Stock Style Steering - 1982-1992 GM F-Body: Camaro & Firebird

Application: 1982-1992 GM F-Body: Camaro & Firebird

Spohn Performance's tubular k-member for the 1982-1992 F-Body Camaro and Firebird sets a new, higher standard of performance and quality. When we designed our k-member, we had several goals in mind.

One was to provide the performance capabilities needed for the toughest race tracks, another was to provide the strength and durability required for the demands of a daily driven vehicle.

Our k-member provides substantial weight savings and frees up a lot of room in the engine bay for our drag race customers, but it also provides the strength, rigidity, and durability for our road race, autox, and daily driver customers as well..... all in one package!

This tubular k-member is designed to be used with the stock style steering set-up, if you would like a tubular k-member set-up for Pinto manual rack and pinion steering click here.

Spohn's tubular k-member features boxed a-arm mounts for maximum rigidity and side load support. Our k-members are gusseted in critical areas to ensure that a weld never breaks. They decrease overall weight, and provide much more room for large tube headers, turbo systems, etc.

Our k-member will accept stock a-arms, or for additional weight loss and performance enhancement we also offer tubular a-arms (click here).

K-members are available set up for stock style coil springs or in a coil over version that eliminates the upper spring perch for additional weight savings. Our jig was built around the factory k-member providing for an exact fit and factory exact dimensions.

Every detail of the factory k-member was incorporated, including brake line mounts (there's no "zip tying" of the brake lines with our k-member) and optional front k-member brace mounts.

Options - Select your options in the drop down option boxes above:

Spring Type: K-members are available set up for a stock style coil spring, or in a coil-over version that eliminates the upper spring perch.

Motor Mount Pads: K-members are available with no motor mount pads for those who will be using a motor plate, or with mounting pads that will accept standard small block, big block, LT1 or 3.8L V-6 motor mounts. Note: If you will be using any block mounted motor mounts then you must get the motor mount pads installed on the k-member. The motor mount pads are what the block mounted motor mounts bolt fast to on the k-member.

Front Brace Mounts: We provide the option of having front k-member brace mounts installed. All 1986-1992 cars were factory equipped with a triangular brace on each side of the front of the k-member to reinforce the front subframe at the steering box mount. These braces reduce flex and cracking of the front subframe and are a recommended addition for any street driven car. If you own a 1982-1985 car that was not factory equipped with the k-member braces, we also offer new triangular braces, make your choice.

4130N Upgrade: The ultimate in bullet-proof lightweight strength, 4130N chrome moly tubing construction! Same as above, but constructed from 1.50" x .083" and 1.25" x .095" 4130N chrome moly tubing.
