lifting my 79

[factoryorange3]

i might have to lift my 79 k10 2 inches in the suspension to fit my new 33" tires. lift kits can be expensive especially for a budget truck. the rear suspension lift should not be a problem since i can fabricate my own blocks for the rear. the front i am hoping to use the stock springs and just extend the spring shackle down 2'' more, and space the steering link 2"also. does this sound like a plan that will work or is this no good at all?
any input or constructive criticizm would be great,.. thanks,
