I'm gonna encourage this... 
Not mine, but it's supposedly got 11" of lift and 39's. 6" lift, 3" body lift, leveling spacers.

Not everyone needs a 4x4 but some like the look. I could see a 3-4" lift with some 33's. It'd make for a good mall crawler.
You could also do the pre-runner look. But if you were really going to push it offroad I'd get the modified arms and go the whole long travel route.

Um, just a thought. With the assumption you want these pics to get ideas for your truck: If we were talking about late-model trucks, presumably there are some reasons one might want to lift a 2WD. None that apply to me, thankfully. But we're talking about 20-25-year-old trucks. For the price of that many mods, you could buy a 4WD truck that already has some lift and then have some money left over.
I might be providing a biased opinion because I would never lift a 4WD either. But 2WD has a lot of advantages and you might as well keep them as long as you can't go off-roading in your truck.

So if lifting a 2wd isn't bad then everyone should stop hating on people lowering a 2wd...

all i did was ask what he wanted it lifted for.. for looks or for an actual purpose.. i am quite curious why people lift 2wd trucks.. thats all i said like i said i wasn't flaming just curious about his reasoning for wanting it.. more power to you 2 wheelin truckers for wanting to ride high.. i prefer not breaking my back getting up into my truck.. it already sits too high for me stock.. and i am 5 foot 11.. just don't like jacked up trucks for my own personal use

On an aside, I can imagine a small lift might be useful for urban driving as it would allow you to drive over curbs and storm drains and such things.

I just have a 3" body lift on my 2wd. Going to add either a 4 or 6 inch suspension lift when I get it converted to 4x4.
