Hello, the boxed units are a stronger piece. The big difference between tubular and boxed connectors is that the boxed units will resist torsional twisting better than the tubular version. The one drawback is that the boxed units are heavier. The tubular version will provide you with better ground clearance. Hope that helps.

Okay now another Question? is there really a major benefit for running a standard SFC versus a 3 point SCF, I would think that the 3 point would be much stiffer, am I right or does it not really matter?

In theory I am sure the 3 point is stiffer but it's nothing you're going to feel.

We feel we make the best 3-Point setup on the market. They are tubular and tuck up extremely well to prevent ground clearance issues. When we designed this set-up we actually took the time to bend the tubing around the floor to keep them fitting as tight as possible. This set-up ties into the rear control arm mount, front subframe and tunnel area. We have them in bolt in or weld in.
