Subframe Connectors with LCARB's?

I am getting ready to redo the entire underside of my car basically. I am starting with subframe connectors and then going to move to the rear suspension. Most subframe connectors I have seen require you to bolt them to the lower control arm and then weld up just short of the front tire. Can you use these subframe connectors with lower control arm relocation brackets and if so, is it difficult and are there any compatabilty issues with certain brands? Also, are there any subframe connectors you guys would recommend? There are so many out there I don't know which to choose. Ones that won't break the bank yet offer great rigidity would be awesome. Thanks in advance guys.

The control arm brackets install on the axle, they can't interfeer with sfc.

Brand sfc? That's up to you.

Ive chosen to use UMI Performance parts when upgrading. So far I'm only using there steering brace (wonder bar).Ive had to put it off for quit a while now but should be able to order the sub-frames connectors next .
Here's a link showing them,scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the photos to get a better look.They also show the control arms in a photo as well. = http://www.umiperformance.com/catalo...roducts_id=127
