not a lot out there for 2wd. how hi do you want to go?
to do it at a reasonable cost i would start with a 3" body lift, should be able to get a 32-33" tire under it.
if you want to go higher (again reasonable cost), some 3" coil spacers

with some balljoint spacers

for some more money you can get longer coils

could also run fiberglass fenders with bigger wheel openings ($$)

& if you really want to blow alot of money on a 2wd, put a I-beam axle in the front($$$$$$$$$)

Thanks, Ill check these out, Im basically looking for 3inch lift, nothing major just need it to clear the 33 tires I got that rub a little.

This is a great call and I would do it in a heartbeat the only thing is the truck was my grandfathers and it holds sentimental value to me!

i guess if the truck has sentimental value to you, you'd prob. not want to trim your fenders or add some cut-out flares to take care of the rub?
as to lifting a 2wd, there's nothing wrong with that. i've seen locker equipped 2 wheels hang with nicely built 4 by's, there more practical as a daily, cheaper to build, look at baha, fastest trucks are 2 by.
'bout 90% of my trucks have been 4x4, will always take one over a 2wd, but if it was all i had, i'd be cranking that sucker up too

I have a 3" body lift on my '81 2WD, I have 31in tires but 33's would fit no problem.
