lifting a 2wd

Just do this. -> http://bulletproofsuspension.net/ind...50-2wd-12.html
If that's out of your budget range. Look up coil spacers, larger springs, spindle lift, and rear blocks. There are about a billion threads on lifting trucks, just search for it.
If you want to be super cheap, go with a 3" body lift.

In my opinion, if you go beyond 8 inches, you may as well straight axle swap it. That's what I've been planning on and researching for over a year and a half now. It would be able to articulate more, take a bigger beating, and can handle larger tires.
Plus, you could convert it to a 4wd along with it with a divorced transfer case and a driveshaft. Also, at 8" or more, it'd probably actually be cheaper for the SAS.

Don't go BulletProof or any of those massive suspension lifts for these generation F150s. If you're looking to go big, get a Fabtech 7.5" lift with a 3" body lift, then stick with 37's. Any bigger and go with a SAS as mentioned.
Edit - I don't think either of those F150s on the BulletProof website are running that lift. The black one was a custom job from several years back, he was on FTW. The silver one is GatorCrew's, also from FTW and F150Online, and I thought he ran the Fabtech + Body Lift combo I mentioned above.

I'm going to end up with 5 inches in the front and 4 inches in the rear or what ever levels the back (1.5 inch coil spring with a 3.5 spindle, and 2 add a leafs with a small block). I'm not looking to go bigger than 35's on my truck
