theres a few options we have for 2wd:

stage 1:
new upper control arm with uniball
taller strut spacer or adjustable coilover
tie rod flip (maybe)

stage 2:
dropped crossmembers
taller spindle
strut spacer or adjustable coil over

stage 3 (long travel):
Extended upper and lower control arms with uniballs.
extended steering tie rod with heims
Aftermarket coilover or long aftermarket coilover with a weld in shock hoop
and maybe a beefier spindle

all those pretty much do is tie the 2 x-members together, than tie the x-member group to the frame. nothing to it. a few extra tubes.
