Default Lifting a 97 2WD...

I was looking at the lift options thread, it appears that I am very limited in what I can do to lift my truck, especially up front. I wouldn't be taking it offroad really at all, would really just be a pavement pounder. Just for looks. It looks like my only real option is a body lift, unless I wanna spend a lot of money? Is that right? I ideally would like about 4" up front, 3" in the back. Couple with some 31's I think would look pretty nice. I really don't have too much money to spend. Any other options?

I know this thread has been done to death, I've looked and looked, but haven't really found an answer to what can be done, if anything. I appreciate any help. Thanks.
