crossover steering or extreme drop pitman arm

[full foot notch]

hey, was thinkin in the back of my mind, what would work better for my explorer that is getting blazer axles

would it be better to spend $360 on a new flattop knuckle with high clearance steering arms, and have to create a new droplink from the arm to the 3 inch drop pitman arm that is on my truck right now

OR

get one of the extreme drop pitman arms that is on ebay from Mako mfg, and just install it with the stock crosslink bar flipped, so that the hole for the draglink would be on the passenger side, since my explorer is a side to side steering instead of front to back steering like a chevy, and the drop pitman would be around $150

im going to be using a 12 inch superlift spring in the front, so that needs to be taken into the equation, and it would seem that the pitman arm is more economical but the crossover setup would be nice to have, but another factor is that im takin out a $1k family loan to finish my truck, so im on a limited budget
