Subframe connectors


What's the best set of subframe connectors? I really like the Kenny Brown Extreme Matrix but I heard they stopped selling them? If so what's the next best option to go for with a set up like that? All I seem to find is just the one bar setups...

uhm, I was thinking global west or Grigg's racing ones would be best because I could add on the extra frame stiffening supports they have that go with them... which is better Grigg's or Global West?

I heard tubular subframe connectors were supposed to be the best but all the ones you guys recommend are rectangular? Is there a reason? Any big difference between the two?

Welded subframe connectors are the best option to use...

the front of the subframe connectors will bolt up, there are holes made for them. the rears will need holes drilled to be bolted up.
