Where can I find like what on the pic. What is the benefit from it? Is it only less weight? Or better handling?

It looks like a new K member, coil over spring kit and A members. It does take a lot of wieght off the front but really improves handling. Like he said Kenny Brown sells them and other suspension companys offer those set ups as well, but they are expensive .
 
It's an aftermarket K-member. It replaces the stock K-member which is the big thing in front of it in the second pic. Saves weight, gives you more room to install headers, better access to starter and clutch.

I can say potholes, what the hell does that have to do with anything? A tubular K-member that is built properly will be stronger than the stamped steel stocker.
Yeah! What do potholes have to with it. You gonna pay that much cash and worry about potholes? It is likely(very) stronger than stock.
 
It's pretty strong, sopposed to be stronger than the stock. I picked it up and was impressed. The handling is much tighter too. As for potholes, I worry more about my longtubes, with my 1.5" drop. I feel it's a worht it mod
 
depends on the material of the k member. the cheaper ones are not as strong as the stock.

Anyone thinking of buying a k member make sure you really research it. this is one of the mods that can be a real bonus or a real nightmare depeding on brand. I mean think about it. the geomtry of your suspention rvoles alot around this.

this is not a wow look how cheap this one is mod. Make sure you buy form a company that has good engineers. To many people think aftermarket is better no matter what. that is just not true.

that being said the clearace around headers is nice. the wieght is nice. some even lower the car which can alow you to run less drop on you spring improving handling if you like me and have 1.75" that is proably hurting me a bit.
