I am looking to upgrade my 5.2 zj steering to heavy-duty any brands or links?
I can't seem to find any...
Also on 5 inches of lift and forget the sway bars.

What size tires? The V8 ZJ steering setup is pretty stout already, I am running on my XJ with 35s.
33's right now but 35's in the future, (running 4.10 gears)
Both of my rod ends are shot, in fact my steering is all shot both tires are tilting in (vertical) and pointed in (horizontal).
Took to a shop and they laughed at me, said everything needed to be redone.

Sounds more like a ball joint problem than a steering arm issue.
it sounds like your mechanics don't want/like to deal with off-roaders.
If you are going to abuse your rig, ball joints will be more regular than anybody likes. They're not expensive, but a bit of a PITA to replace.
Get them replaced and an alignment. Maybe you need TRE also, but they're easy to change.
