Hey Rebel,
I don't have much to offer that hasn't been said yet. It's always nice to see a new face. I'm a little jealous of your early start in this great hobby. I'm 24 and didn't get my 61 until I was 21. I am in the same boat in a lot of ways. Not a lot of money, but plenty of time.
As for the lift, if you want to do it, I say go for it! There are plenty of company's that make lift kits for 2wd pickups. Fabtech, Pro Comp, and others. The only drawback is that you would have to have a lot of it made custom and that ain't cheap.
I think that 2wd trucks look good with a little lift. And seriously it's your truck. It would make it more functional in a lot of ways too. You could fit a larger tire and gain quite a bit of ground clearance.
Good luck on your project. Let's see some pictures!!
