Default Planning to do WJ knuck-swap (high-steer)

So I think I am going to get that Ironman4x4 (US) `WJ knuckle swap` kit because I need to re-do my steering and I'd really prefer having higher clearance. Right now my XJ has a 1" drop to the pitman, but I am going to change that back to regular with a WJ or XJ pitman and this is the part I am not sure about. Are they they same part on both the WJ or XJ? Or is one designed obviously better? If so, I want to make sure I pull that one from the junkyard. Here is the next question, is there anything else I could do to beef things up while I am doing all of this? I'm going to get Ironman 4x4's `Inner C-Gussets` too. I really do not know jack about steering (I'm learning though), so I don't know if there is anything else I could address while I am having to weld gussets and other similar things. There are some real experienced folks here so I wanted to ask.
