upr k members?

[venom97]

today i went out and installed my upr k member and the damn thing doesnt seem like its lineing up right,the pass. side lower mount needs to move foward about 1/4 of an inch. another thing is that i cant run the stock bolts for the lower mounts(the two double bolts)on the bottom because the heads are to small. this seems like this is going to be a big head ache,after this i get to install their a arms and coil overs. wondering what else is waiting for me. i was just wondering if anyone else is running one of uprs k members and if they had any problems,if so what you had to do. sorry about the long post,any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kinda late now, but I would recommend avoiding the knock-off brand k-member. Especially on something so important

ive talked to alot of people that have had no problems.but i have heard of some problems with these now, that im having some too.

For the lower mounts you are supposed to use the supplied washers to take up the slack.

As with ALL UPR Products, the quality is hit or miss and their business practices are VERY SHADY!!!

UPR =

got mine on with the control arms and the coil overs without a hitch. also i have never had a problem with upr, all my suspension is upr and never had a complaint. i know alot of people dont like their stuff and call it knock off but i my experience the quality and price of their stuff had been decent to say the least. iam sure if i ponied up for the big name brand stuff it would be better but upr hasnt done me wrong yet.

always questioned UPR, did you get that whole "front end" kit or just the k-member

i bought the whole kit,im not knocking them.(yet) ive had the kit for some time and just recently went to put it on and didnt have the bushings for the control arms,grease zerts(?) for the ball joints and the ball joint boots and called them.they are sending me all the parts i didnt get with no questions asked and the person i talked to was very friendly and helpful. i will probably call them this week and talk to them and see what they say.

I have had a few dealing with UPR, and they have always been helpful and had very good customer service. I run a few of their and pieces and know a bunch that also run them and many others with no problems. Im not saying any one else is wrong, but i just go from my personal experience, not what i hear online and i have never had any problems and have had great customer service from them.
