Default Getting 31s, not enough $ for suspension lift yet?

I am getting new tires for winter. I talked it over with my parents (I'm 16 lol) and I told them that I am saving up for a suspension lift and 31" tires.

They wanted me to get new tires for winter so we're just going to save some dough and get the 31s now.

The thing is, I don't have enough money for the either 3" or 3.5" full suspension lift I was going to buy.

So, my question is: what is the cheapest lift I can get to fit 31s and not have to trim anything.

I will not do any serious wheeling with a cheapo lift and i will probably get my suspension like 2 months after I get the tires.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

you could get a rough country lift which is what im running and farely happy with and if money is tight get the aal for a temp fix for the back end and then when you get the money turn around and buy your full leaf packs.

Would 2" be enough for my 31s as a part-time fix? i will be doing no hardcore wheeling with it until I can go bigger.

yeah, 2 inch BB by teraflex, thats what i got and im running 31x10.5x15 and the only rubbing i got is when my wheel is locked but there is no reason to have your wheel locked so you will be fine.
