87 Camaro Tube front end

Good afternoon,


I'm trying to figure out the best way to tube my front end of my 87. Does anyone have any picture who has done it? Also what is the best k member and a - arms to set up for drag racing? This is my second gen 3 Camaro, but first drag car to build.


Thanks,
Walter Miller

Re: 87 Camaro Tube front end

If you want to tube front end your car then an aftermarket k-member isn't required.

If you do a search, you'll see that doing a tube front end on a third gen isn't common, easy or cheap. As I've said in other posts, it would be easier to just build a tube chassis car.

Thank you for the advice. Just going to do a k member. So who makes the best one for drag racing?
