Isn't kinda one of those things that if you have to ask then you probably don't need them?

twin sticks--i assume you are refferring to t-case twin sticks a la atlas II which allow you to select hi and lo range gearing on your front and rear axle independently. i.e. front wheel drive 2 lo, etc. Good for maneuvering and all kinda fancy tricks on the trail.

there are kits availible for several cases from suzuki samurai t-cases on up. I know nothing other than tha atlas and the dana-300

yes you can get a kit for a 205 or you can build your own... www.offroaddesign.com has a kit for the 205...

Search offroad.com they did a f-150 project and they used a currie twinstick setup for the dana 300 and adapteded it to the 205.
