Default Which Trackbar / Mount / Brace

I'm at about 5" of lift and want to get a new trackbar/bracket/brace. Just having trouble deciding on which. I'm currently running a JKS bar that is too short for my lift.

I've looked @ IRO's bar and bracket - but folks always complain about the bushings sucking. How about attaching a brace?

Clayton's - they have a nice bar/bracket. But, is there any way to attach somebody else's brace to their bracket?

RE - They have all 3 but I'm not sure about their trackbar. How are their joints these days? It has been a while since I ran any RE stuff.

Other opinions to look at? I want BEEF - pure and simple. And, I'm pretty much stuck on getting a brace that goes from the mount to the passenger frame (unless somebody can convince me otherwise).

Thoughts? Recommendations?

I don't care who's brace I use. Just wondering if anyone has successfully attached a brace to a bracket that it wasn't "meant" for.

Yes. I use a Full Traction brace on a TNT mount with my own bar/spherical rod ends. I just drilled two holes in the TNT mount and installed the Full Traction brace.
