Hell Bent Steel has 2" and 2.5" leveling kits that are nice.. And $79. You can probably find a body lift for around $200. So $400 or so isn't a bad budget!

Well wait a minute... You have an '02? You should just be able to crank the torsion bars to level it then... Somebody correct me if I'm wrong here!

you'll probably have to expand your budget. i havent looked in the dodge lift market but im not sure you'll be able to get the suspension lift without more $$

Get aftermarket leveling keys.

Nothing would be gained by doing this.

$400 is more than enough to cover the cost of a 2" body lift. If you want it level and 2" on top of that then all you'll need is the body lift.
