Anything over 2" is gunna need more mods caster correction etc, and I think some even at 2" i think some have modified.
I think iron man foam cell shocks and springs for the cash ya wanna spend

You should be fine with 2 inch lift with out other changes.
Checkout supensionstuff.com.au and find what you like. I'm running 2" lift , dobinsons colis and koni shocks. All up cost 1200 bucks

There's a lot in your price range

With 2" lift no problems, but might rub on mud flaps on full flex

When my ute had a 2 inch lift it did have offset radius arm bushes. 2 degrees I believe. It had king springs and rancho 9000x shocks. This was all on the ute when I bought it

personally I think a body lift is a waste of time and effort, you dont gain any clearence on the chassis and you increase your centre of gravity
