Any time you modify the front suspention (crank t-bars) it will cause more wear and tear on other componets IE center link/ tie rod ends with that said can you do a lift for 100.00 sure here is a little info

Shackles for the rear can be had here www.purenissan.com

as for the front here is a write up on how to do the front

Would 1.5" even be noticeable? If 1.5"lift would hurt my suspension in the front, I'll wait till I can buy the 3" lift kit for just under a grand. what would you do??

 

 I would not spend the 1K on a suspention lift I have had one for 6 years NOT worth the money (if the wife knew how much money I have spent on my truck over the years she would kill me ) if I could start over all I would do is a 3" body lift and then beef up the steering system that will allow you to run at least a 31" tire maybe a 32" if all your going for is the "look" this is all you need to do.

Here is a couple of links to some vendors I have used the have pretty much anything you would want/need

Yes you will notice a differance also the ride will be a little stiffer the T-bar crank will cause some wear and tear on steering componets it increases the angles of the tie rods which will put more stress on the center link.
