alston vs. hotchkis

As the title states are there any benefits to hotchkis or alston subframe connectors. they look to be made essentially the same way, except one is tubular and one is sqaure wall tubing. both come powdercoated for about the same price.

Just decide on the Spohn SFC's and you will not have a problem.
Spohn is the better ot two you mentioned.

actually, theyre completely different. the alston connect just behind the trans crossmember and on the back subframe. the hotchkis connect on the front subframe and go along the pinch weld back to the control arm mounting. if you have the funds, i say get both. but instead of hotchkis, spohn, because they have an extra piece that connect from the pinch weld to right by the trans crossmember
