Want to increase 2WD wheel travel

Can I increase the wheel travel on my '91 2 wheel drive without spending a couple grand? I dont plan on racing it, just want to have some fun in the sand and dirt. Im only planning on running a 33" tire and just a couple inches lift.

Looking for affordable cut out flares

I want to cut my fender openings to open them up and am looking for a decent looking flare. The Bushwakers are ridiculously expensive and I really dont need 5" of extra tire coverage. I only want 2-3 inches of coverage but want to cut a couple inches from my fenders.
