What would be the best way to lift just the front just about 1"or 2" ?

Best??? Depends on what you mean by "best"

A shim/spacer in the shocks is the simplest. IMO
Lift kits are available and work very well. (most widely used method)
Longer shocks could provide a better ride AND lift.
Arched A-arms would be great and add clearance.

I'll also suggest larger tires although I don't like to go too large. I believe I read that tires should all be the same diameter so that they turn at the same rate in 4WD, so you'll have to raise the back too, darn it.:eek:

cheapest easiest way would be spacers but that also preloads your springs so the already stiff shock would be even stiffer
