Default Finding urethane control arm replacments

I have a 00 XJ with 6 inches of lift and unknown adjustable lowers that feature a screw style adjustment and uppers that are non adjustable. The had blown out rubber bushings that were stock moog style-http://www.rubiconexpress.com/Lift-Kits-Suspensions-Shocks/Bushings-Cold-Cut-End-Rings.aspx?t_c=1&t_s=20&t_pt=10107 so I replaced those with Energy poly's but there is no sidewall support so I'm looking for a more effective bushing. I could cut off and install different ends from either RE or something like these- http://www.ballisticfabrication.com/...63_p_1646.html, but I don't want to drop 400.00 into some old arms. The uppers are 1 7/8th round and 1 1/2 wide (which I assume all are) and the lowers are 2 1/4 round and 2 1/8th (again standard?) I would like leaf spring eye style polys, there isn't a manufacture that deals in size, just applications, any help would be great. These bushings are the stlye I'm looking for- http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=...QEwAw&dur=2712

Post a pic of the arms and I'm sure someone can ID them for you so you know what brand to get.

Longarms aren't on the radar, I just invested in drop brackets, I talked to a lot of people and I drive to all my wheeling spots and road manners are a concern. The arms have no identifying marks of any sort. I did however find these- http://www.polyperformance.com/shop/...t-p-16605.html, I would like to make the uppers adjustable since the drop brackets have changed the geometry so much. (obviously this was before the install)
