Not much out there for 2wd trucks any more. The market has pretty much faded away. Might be able to find spindles on ebay..... or grab springs out of a 2wd diesel/V-10 truck to get a couple inches. Can't go real far though without addressing ball joints...

I looked into it before just for fun but Fabtech makes a lift kit for a 01 2wd. Don't know if they still do or not. Don't see the point in lifting a 2wd but hey it's not my truck do what you want and have fun with it.

Lifting a 2wd is kinda useless, unless you simply need more ground clearance or just want a taller ride height, 2wd trucks can be pretty low, even for basic truck use.
