I was looking at the 4pt k-member brace in the MM catalog and was wondering if it's something worth getting. I want to reduce/eliminate the lateral slop in my chassis. Should I just get a PH bar and full length SFCs?

What have you done, suspension wise so far?

Nothing.
And yes, SFC's are on my list. MM full length or bust.

Budget?
You installing yourself, or someone else?
Most important: Goals?

Budget isn't very limited. I'm going to do some searching, and then I'll figure out the total cost to buy all the parts, and I'll just save up from there. Even though my budget is not tight, I'd hate to spend money on things that I don't really need.

I'm installing everything myself, as long as there's no welding required. So for example, I can't do the SFC's myself.

My car is a DD. I wouldn't mind a harsher ride and little noises here and there if it means that my car would drive better/perform better. I want low 13's and decent handling. (which I'm sure is easily attainable without breaking the bank)

I appreciate your input but those SS springs have too low of a drop. I want to keep it 1"-1.5".
