I used the Maximum Motorsports full-length connectors. I really don't have a comparison point, but I can tell you that I am very happy with the result.

I chose full length because the longer connectors provide for a stiffer chassis, and MM connectors give you much more welding area. Global West connectors are welded to the chassis with just a few tabs, but about half of each MM connector is welded to the chassis. It may be overkill, but with a vert, I wanted to do the best I could to make-up for not having a roof.

I will tell you however, all this probably makes the MM full length connectors some of the hardest to put in a vert. The factory braces must all be ground down, and some of the welding area is 1/4" away from the fuel lines. It took me a WHILE to get these things in... but after all was said and done, the result was well worth it.

While you're at it, I'd also throw in a strut tower and k-member brace... especially if you plan on doing any cornering and/or running stiffer springs.

Just my $0.02
