The QA1 stuff is far more affordable
than some of the other $3500-$5000 options available
depends on what you get from QA1
about appr. $1800 - about $2200
that's far less than many of the others
(the QA1's are based on the old Capps Automotive style/designs)
(
Most of the ones I've used, I still use the Torsion bars
& OE style engine mounts, with Moroso solid mts
& with OE style rear steer where it goes under the pan
I wasn't trying to reinvent the wheel, used what works)
The K-member is strong & lighter
than the OE stamped steel units
better header fits more choices of oil pans
depends on whether you have the org. style steering box mounts
with rear-steer or not
(
OE style steering goes under the oil-pan/lower ball joints are to the rear of the spindles/axle line)
front steer is a completely different animal
(
steering & lower ball-joints are ahead of the spindles/axle line, different steering box needed etc.)
more $$$ initially too
you can get them with the OE placement of engine mounts too
or for use with elephant ears no OE style mt's (
Mid plate too IIRC)
But it's a wide open area under the engine on both
it depends on what parts you chose
will depend on how much adjustable
the LCA's are compact & light
some have provisions for the sway bars to
(like the photo below)
you have to order then that way
or you need to adapt them otherwise
QA1 UCA's are OK too, strong & light
some are adj. some aren't depends on what you order
QA1 Dynamic adj. alum Strut rods
SPC dbl adj. UCA's with the poly bushing are great
have a little more caster built into them
you can adjust them on the car too
QA1 k-member
QA1 LCA's with tab for sway bars
QA1 Dynamic adj alum strut rods
QA1 UCA's no adj. poly bushed
QA1 UCA's (formerly Capps Automotive/design) adj. poly bushed
SPC UCA's dbl adj. on car
with more caster angle built into the ball joints location
I hope some of that helps
