This is probably a dumb question, and it doesn't answer yours, but why are you trying to lift a 4x2? Not hating on you, just asking.

2WD is easier task, and some here have done it. Same concept...body lift is an option, suspension lift is another. Depending on amount, you may have to drop pitman arm. and change out shocks. Some have done the front by changing front coils to diesel coils.
Make sure your steering is in good shape as lifting will exaggerate any issues.
But you will not have to worry about clocking T Case!

I wouldn't put 1500 spindles on a 2500 with a diesel, that is ASKING for trouble. They simply are not rated for that kind of weight. You would get a rather rude surprise if one of them broke.......

I found this http://cstsuspension.com/products/sf.../productID/471
its for a 3rd gen but might just work for you. You will need to cross reference/research the parts and see if they will work. A lot of the 3rd gen stuff fits our trucks, or just order one and to a trial fit.
