Check eBay, craigslist, or the for sale/trade section on here. For Example:

Cheaply? Depends on your definition of cheap. At a minimum you'll need the following:
4.5" Coils
4.5" Leafs
SYE & driveshaft
Shocks
Brake lines
New/longer control arms
New TracBar
Lots of fender trimming.

Your best bet is to look into a complete lift kit.

How about a new speedo gear to correct the speedometer.
Gor the right gears in the axle? They should be 4.56 for 33's

maybe im reading this wrong but it looks like your saying it has 33's on it with no lift? if thats the case your fenders are chopped to hell. please clarify this does it have 33's on it or not?

Either it is chopped fenders or chopped tires. 33s without any lift is un-driveable in my experience.
