Default TJ Weld on Panhard Drop

Hey guys, I'm still dealing with my bump-steer/wobble issue and think the time's come to drop the front Track bar and Pitman Arm. I've searched the net for a weld on replacement but haven't had any luck for a RHD version.

Does anyone know of anything or do i need to fab one up?

Any advice with doing so?

There aren't really any other options out there apart from the Blackjack one and at over $750 I just can't justify it.

Thanks, Ben

About 5" suspension, their 4.5" R.E. Springs with 1" coil spacers. Both the tie rod ends are wearing way faster then they should and bind way before i run out of down-travel so i'm always worried about snapping one offroad.
