Unhappy Lift a 2wd 3/4t ??? *newbie*

Hi all, my name is John im from Sweden (North Europe), due to lack of good forums over here I hope its ok for you that I hang around here...

My language skills aint top notch so bare whit me

I have recently become owner of a
1976 2wd silverado c20 3/4t 6.2diesel th400 longbed. (engine from -85 blazer)
Looks ok and works perfekt....But looks a bit nerdy.

A few days ago I stumbled over a bargain, a set of new BFG 35" a/t
So my medicine to solve this nerdyness would be to mount them together whit a lift. Here is where my problem starts.

I understand that its totaly useless to lift a 2wd for any driving purposes, but hey, its the look I want and I have had my share of low rides.
Due to this useless, liftkits on market for 2wd 8lug seems to be very small? (I cant find any)

So what are my alternatives?

3-4" bodylift for start, and maby 2" blocks between the leafs and axel in the rear. But in the front I cant come up whit any good solutions. I allredy have the 3/4t springs (I think) so what should I do?

Will take some pictures for you.....

Please
