Great input from a lot of different perspectives. The general consensus is that yeah, the welds don't look the best, but the overwhelming majority of the time they do what they're supposed to do. I find it interesting that the weak point (if you want to call it that) may be the LCA pivot attachment points and not the steering box bracket or flange welds.
So maybe it's time to recalibrate my original post. Reinforcing the K member is more about reducing flex then preventing catastrophic failure. Rich Ehrenburg addressed the flexing issue in Dec 2011 MA and FF has since released a sector support kit. As Mopar rodders we're all about improving upon an already great product. Project Overkill is about upgrading my Coronet's handling and braking with HD suspension parts from PST, disc brake conversion kit from Dr. Diff and stiffening the K member. And it's gonna look cool too. :headbang:
