Is the piece of black metal underneath the front of the engine that the lower A-arms connected to part of the K-member?? If so, the other day it was raining and I made a turn, only the car didn't fully turn and I slid up over a curb. My alignment is slightly off (sterring wheel to the left a bit). When I went under there yesterday to change the oil, I noticed that there were scrapes on the K-member on the passanger side and the K-member is slightly bent up on that side. Is there any way to get my front end realigned and not having to replace the K-member? Also, is there any negatives about having it bent? Please help!!

Thanks, but I'll wait and get a new tubular one. I just had to pay out my deductable because some a**hole ran into my car over night while it was parked. But is it bad to drive around with it bent?? It's not majorly bent, just a little.

I have the same problem. Its not good driving with a broken k-member, at least in my case, the steering gear is not in line with the rest of the car, wich causes bump-steering. The wheels are turning different depending when the suspension is working. You should be happy that you dont live in sweden, cause a stock k-member here is 1000$... and a tubular in the US is 350$....
