 Subject: Which way do I go?

Message:
OK here it goes, I have read the back postings many, many, many of them and I have gathered some very good info. I have a 1998 Dakota 2x4 with 3.9L v6 dah. What I was thinking of doing is going with 2" lift springs and a, 3" body lift. However I have seen two different responses, The first is with a 2" lift spring without upper a arms will throw things out of alignment to were they cant be aligned. And the second is it is hard on ball joints. I can afford to go with Fabtech 3" lift kit but it is $400 dollars more then just 2" springs and shocks, is it worth the $400 for the extra inch? If it will prevent complications it is worth it for me but if there is not a complication with just running 2" lift coils then I will sacrifice the extra inch and spend the money else were. Tires don’t rely matter I will be happy with either 33x12.50x15 or 31x11.50x15 I just don’t know what to do. Any help will be very appreciated. Oh yah one more question if I go with the Fabtech 3” lift it says you cant use the OE wheel because of back spacing do I need to buy wheel before I put lift on because I wont be able to get the truck to the tire shop after putting the kit on with my stocks. And if I need to buy wheel I am interest in the eagle alloys 589 what back spacing do I get so assuming 3” body and 3” Fabtech to run 33’s without rubbing.
Thanks again
Sorry for the length
And if I have asked a question that has already been asked sorry, I have read almost all old post but this specific question was not covered.
