Default Leveling out my 05 2wd ram, help!

ok so ive got my 05 1500 2wd QC hemi ram, but the damn thing is not 4wd and im moving back home to Colorado from Texas and am gonna need more traction. and i know its soo much better to have a 4wd but i cant afford to put an axel in the front so i have to go about it this way. now my old 4x4 shop back in CO said to get a leveling kit for around 400-500$ to help with the weight, and probably put something like shurtrax in the bed http://www.shurtrax.com/index.html , ok the shurerax is easy to get and easier to install, but every time i lookk for a leveling kit for my truck all i get is somethign like front polyurethane coil spacers. now to me that sounds like a poor mans leveling kit, like blocks instead of leaf springs in a 4x4 suspension lift. does anyone out there know where i can get a real leveling kit, and who offers it, i dont want to go the cheap route and end up paying for it later one day on the side of the road. thanks for all your help out there!!

I'd just do a suspension lift.

check out http://stores.channeladvisor.com/Top.../Items/RC0120?.
they have a 3" suspension lift for 451.00

also www.godfathercustoms.com might have one for a two wheel drive.

I did the leveling kit on my 02 2wd and i like it because i only have a two wheel drove and i didnt wanna go to big on it because like i said it was two wheel drive. and i didnt feel like having to spend all shorts of money on tires that look good under the lift
