Leveling a 2008 4x4 ranger Xlt

Hello everyone,,

I'll start by saying I'm new to this whole thing. I've read some of the threads regarding lifting a 4x4 but I'm still indecisive in what I want to do. I just want my truck to sit level, I've already cranked the torsion keys giving me an extra inch up front but the rear end is still noticeably higher. I don't want to crank it up anymore than it is already, in fact I'd like to take it back a few turns. I don't want to loose the functionality of my shocks. Ideally I want to be sitting 1"-2" higher than I am now up front without having to crank my keys much at all.

I've read that a lift is going to cause my driveshaft to wear out much faster. Is that the case even with such a minor lift?

I'm interested in the pre key mod but is this any better than using forged keys? I've heard really bad things about those. Anyone that's gone with the pre key mod did it have any negative affects on your ride quality?

Sorry if this is a stupid question but is it normal or possible to do a body lift to only the front end of the truck?

Sorry for being such a newb I appreciate any feedback and I'm open to all suggestions but keep in mind I'm on a budget not looking to go with a superlift or long travel hopefully one day.
