Make one, buy a book and see how they are done, you can buy the tubing already threaded and the heim joints from summit. If you cant weld find somone who can. Mybe the easer thing to do is lower your jeep a couple of inches, You dont have to have a hugh lift these days to have large tires, center of gravaty will be better and you wont througt your drive shafts as often. If you dont want to do this make sure your pinon angle is corect and you may want to add a sye kit to your transfer case which will allow you to install a longer drive shaft. Good luck.
