Okay, so for now I've decided I'm finally going to put in a little bit of lift. For now, I'm thinking of doing spacers and shackles for just about 2" (really cheap on ebay for rusty's, teraflex, etc). Now I just want to make sure I'll have everything I need when I attempt this. Will stock length shocks work with a 2" budget boost? If not is there a way to extend them? Will my track bar, etc. need relocating with 2"?

Thanks as always guys, I'm just dumb when it comes to suspension and steering.

You won't need to relocate the trackbar on just 2", when I did a 2" lift the trackbar wasn't off enough to even make it worth the hassle. As for shocks I think stock shocks should work since in reality you will actually get less then 2" of lift.. Old springs..My 2" lift measure out right at 1.7"

Would you say that a small budget boost is worth it? I'm not really looking for larger tires, just some more ground clearance. I already have 30s I believe.

The small boost is worth it IMO, just for keeping the rig off the bumpstops on faster trails, and giving you a little more room for flex with your 30's. Though if you do alot of wheeling it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to look into some longer shocks, Rusty's and RC both offer ones to fit a 2" lift for very good prices.
