Having done all three options.... I'd do a frame-Z. Properly done, it yields the same results as an aftermarket x-member while using the tried & true OE chassis set-up.
For me, the aftermarket front crossmembers correcting the poor factory geometry while converting to rack & pinion is what makes them so attractive. Their only downside is cost.
