ive heard from a couple people that if you go above a certain inch lift (3 generally) that you need a different drive shaft or something like that, i dont know if that is true, i am in the process of getting ready to decide how high to lift mine and am just lookin into anything that would come back to bite me in the *** if i didnt know about it before hand

There are SOOOOO many threads that talk about exactly this i bet if you look at the first few pages of Cherokee Chat you will have your question answered ten fold.

Most of the time everyone refers to those as transfer case drops. I think that is a more accurate description.
