You can get really crazy and order some with 2" backspacing

Just had a quick question. I am going to be installing my lift this upcoming weekend and I was wondering if the transfer case drop is necessary if I am doing an SYE and new shaft?

That's what I'm running on my 99 and all I needed was a t case drop. No SYE, no CV shaft. I believe I've got an extra drop kit if you want to try that before you spend the $ on the other stuff.

So reciently I have been looking into longer and adjustable control arms for my jeep because Im lifting it. I looked on Rustys Offroad and saw two types of control arms. the first pair look like direct replacements for what I have stock holding the upper axle on. Heres links to the products Im referring to,
lower control arms http://rustysoffroad.com/mm5/merchan...gory_Code=ARMS
upper control arms http://rustysoffroad.com/mm5/merchan...gory_Code=ARMS
Then as I looked down the list of control arms I saw these lower control arms.
http://rustysoffroad.com/mm5/merchan...gory_Code=ARMS
If I understand right the upper control arm attaches to the bracket located on this lower control arm. Can someone please explain what advantage using this control arm would give?
I have a 1990 jeep cherokee which I will be lifting from 3" lift to 4.5" of lift with, at the moment, 31" tires and a stock front axle. Any imput would be greatly appriciated.

Anyone on here can there own control arms for a 6.5 lift? I would either like the know all the correct sizes-lengths etc I would need to make some. I possibly would even buy them if someone could make them for me. Hoping someone local could chime in. Thanks in advance.
