Default Long arm kits?

Im looking to get a long arm kit. But they are super expensive. I have a 2.5" skyjacker lift w/ stock short arms. This guy at a jeep mechanic place said there was a cheaper way of getting the same performance on and off road if i simply buy lower front control arms, rear upper adjustable arms, and sway bar disconnects.

I have a lot of wobbling on the road at hi & low speeds.

Is that true? recommended? Am i gona eventually want to get long arm kit anyways?

Changing to adjustable short arms wont do anything to improve offroad performance. If your wobbling problem is due to not having enough caster, then the adjustable arms can fix that. Rear upper adjustable arms can also tune out a driveline vibration if you have one.
