Found a very easy free option for apps2ext, not apps2sd, to use with a rooted optimus v. This does require you to partition your card which there are a few different ways to do this.

The Option:
The app is in the play store called S2E. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.krikun.s2e&feature=nav_result

Instructions:
All you do is install the app, select what you want to be moved to ext. (it is recommended not to move app data as it will cause errors but it does give you the option).

Then you reboot and everything that was on your internal as well as all newly installed apps will be installed to ext.
If anything is on your sd by using the native apps2sd just move to internal and it will automatically move to ext.

A few notes:
This does not move as much as link2sd does, but is a much easier option and it will not move apps that do not allow to be moved to sd the only option for that is link2sd. However if you are daring enough it will move app data which link2sd will not do.
 
There's multiple ways to do it, that is one way, another way is through the recovery which I did but it will erase your card. There's others as well which is why I have that there are multiple ways. It's all about personal preference. This is for after you have partitioned.
 
Yes.
If you have a CWMod recovery or one of it's modified versions like VM670NH recovery, or the Touch Screen recovery then you can download QtADB to your PC and go to the advanced section,
ext.3 which is what the recovery's partition to, doesn't work to well with some ROM's so pick anything but that.
It has an option to save all the contents of your sd card before partitioning the sd card, and then putting it back on the sd card once it's done partitioning. Just be patient as any movement of info from the sd card to PC takes a little while.

Note 1: When you open up the folder, then open up the next folder you need to just click on the green android guy to start it.
You can make a short cut of this by right clicking on the green android guy and selecting create shortcut. Send it to the desktop or where ever you want it.


Note 2: You also have to have ADB set up on your PC. The best way to do this is found here:New pre-packaged ADB installation
It has worked 100% of the time, is as quick and easy as anything I've seen so far. Read all the way thru it even the last little bit about what to do if it didn't quite work (happens every great once in a while, but this last part fixes that) and watch the video.

EDIT: Ninja'd by the new Armored Android Warrior.

I used MiniTool Partition Wizard and the great thing was that I DID NOT lose the data on the Fat32 partition! Which was great.
