Coil overs or coil springs question

So…. I bought me a QA1 k frame didn’t realize it didnt have coil buckets or what ever you call them. So what are you guys running? Coil overs if so which ones.

I used the original K-member so I can't tell you which coil-over conversion is best. Keep in mind, though, when you use coil-overs, the springs are applying a load to a location never intended to take that load. You'll need a brace between the shock towers.

Yes sir I was thinking about that’s. I really don’t want to do coil overs really want to stick with stock suspension. Wanted the aftermarket k frame for easy access.

There are several companies that have the top spring buckets and Aarms that will accept coil springs. I used a D&D the last time. I liked that set up way better than coilovers I have used. Either way, I do also recommend a strut tower brace.
