Default 2 inch body lift

if i wanted to do a two inch body lift bedsides the spacers and the longer bolts what would i need to do since i have heard that you may have to extend the fuel pipe and move the radiator is this true with a two inch as well? or just when you go to a three inch.

Okay I understand the 1" body lift, but if you're going to try to custom make your own 2" body lift you might as well go with a 3" body lift kit.
