Aftermarket Radius arm mounting..

One of my future plans is to get a nice set of aftermarket radius arms for my 5.5 lifted 69. (I like the wildhorses versions) I notice that different company's sell adjustable frame mounts.
When I get to this point, should I just mount the arms in the factory locations or should I use aftermarket brackets.. How does a guy know where to mount the brackets? Hopefully this makes sense to someone out there! thanks!

RCrawler is gaining momentum as a positive member of FTE.
It depends on what rear mounting the arms use. Many that I have seen get rid of the factory bushing mounts altogether and mount in the stock location, or farther back if they are extended.

I'm sure there would be detailed instructions for mounting with whatever arms you decide on.
