I think it was you and I, I may be wrong, that were discussing how the subframe connectors would be more effective if that had cross pieces connecting to the opposite side's subframe connector.

Check this style out. Exactly what I imagined.

Yep it was me and those are cool. I looked at them, but was worried about my exhaust clearing. My car will be 1 1/2" lower than stock and will have 2 1/2" exhaust. It is also kind of pricey, but looks like a real quality set up. I actually ended up welding in a 4 point roll bar that connects the rear frame rails. The roll bar, Global West subframe connectors, torque boxes on both sides, export brace and monte carlo bar should stiffen it up nicely. If I had a convertible, I would strongly consider the TCP set up. Thanks for posting, moon!

No problem. I thought the same thing about exhaust. I hope these guy are still in business in about ten years. (Im doing a get it on the road and enjoy it for a few years restoration now, and a super restoration afterwards.)
