Default Lift kits, consoles,

I have a 96 Dakota Sport V8 4WD PU 55K miles 4WABS and I am having a real problem finding body, or suspension lift kits. Seems everything omits either V8 OR 4WD . What's up with this? I did see one that was identical to mine that was done, I did talk to the guy and he told me about the kit and that he had to change the fan and some bumper mods. And that it took three weeks to do at a pro shop. But anyhow, whats the best way to get it up safely and How about a tip on a console that will fit that will replace the cheesey one the factory put in?

Well, that is the info I need. But it looks like I have to either go with just a suspention lift or just a body lift.
I only want like 2 inches so i am not so sure. Still thinking and trying to figure out.
