I only know a few Mustang guys that have used Race Craft stuff and they were happy with it.

Have you looked into UMI or any other brands? I know JS Performance can get UMI stuff and I believe CTW has access to a few brands as well.

I have looked into almost all of them, I have a umi on my 02 SS. Its nice, and its light I just saw a racecraft one on CL and figured if I could get it on the cheap, it would be worth picking up for my 99 Z.

Make sure you find out which Race Craft one it is before you buy. They make a standard, a road race, and a lightweight drag strip only version. Pretty sure they also option the steering differently depending which rack is being used.

I can get it for a $1000, with lower arms. But I will have to buy a manual rack, which isn't that big of a deal since I don't have PS anyway. The manual rack is another $600 plus shipping.
How much you asking for that PA k member and does it have control arms too?
