the 2" lifts will fit a 2-door or 4-door, if its the 6-inch superlift kit that youre wondering about, I would try calling them and seeing if it will fit, or if they have any reccomendations on making it fit. Seems to me that if the 2" fits both, than the 6" should fit both. The only difference I can think of would be rear suspension mounting points, the 6" does a SOA (spring over axle) which might change things too much to fit the 2-door.

I'm wondering if I couldn't make up a plate to mount to the top of my axle for the leafs to be bolted on to.

It would have to be a pretty thick gauge metal to be used there, but it could be done. The kits come with rear lift though, I'm not sure if you can buy the front buy itself. You will definitely need longer brake lines and longer shocks if you do it.

I'm figuring 1/4 or thicker. I'm just trying to figure out how much that would give by having the leafs mounted on top.

you would gain about 4.5-5", the diameter of the axle tubes

I need to hurry up and get a welder. haha That is a pretty good jump. Seems like that is basically what the superlift and other kits would do.

That's exactly why it won't work on a 2 door. Drive-line angles become an issue and Superlift doesn't want to take on the liability of that.
