Default Gusset Advice

I am about to pull the trigger and purchasing some gussets for my D44, my question is this, which one is better?

There are two style on the market the "Razor Back" styles and the Wrap around style.
What one did you go with and why, is one stronger, easier to weld, looks ect???

I went with the Synergy gussets simply because they include the upper and lowers and look beefier. They just seemed mechanically stronger.

Yeah, I did the same type of thing with EVO's. It was my first self welding experience and the other type looked
like I could very well cook/overheat my C's and ball joints.

any C gussets will do the job fine. I too went with Synergy.
