Have you checked out the Teraflex 2.5in 4 spring kit w/shocks? About $559.00 @ Northridge. I got 3+ inces and run 35's. The part # is 1251000 and they were running free shipping on orders over $100.00. 
Check it out, this may be what your looking for.

Well i never thought about a body lift. Also i have never installed anything on any vehicle. So would i be able to install a lift kit or body lift by myself with a friend or two or would i be better off paying the money to get them installed professionally?
Alright so this BB would be fine right...

Personally I hate the look of a body lifted vehicle, just be aware of the difference with the body to bumper gap, I would stay with the suspension lift only

wow i didn't even notice the gap but now i see it and don't think i like that look. maybe a suspension lift alone is what i want. i just need to stay low in cost so i guess i could get a lift and add spacers maybe..

just remember, the higher you go suspension wise, the more expensive things start to get, especially on two doors. After about 2.5 inches, you start getting into driveshaft, control arms and trackbars. It gets expensive really quick!!

i have a 4 door by the way. i see that becomes a cost factor whether it's 2 or 4 door so I'm letting everyone know i have a 4door Rubi. thanks for all the help so far everyone!

anything more than a 1" bl and yeah, it can start to look funky but with a 1" bl, you won't hardly notice it. i have one on my jeep and just about everyone that has seen it didn't even realize that i had a bl. here are a couple of pics to show you what my jk looks like with it on...
keep your factory rubi rails and you won't see any gap on the side. front and rear, the pinch seam extends down low enough that with a 1" bl, you won't see any real gap there as well
