Cruise Craigslist and eBay. I just scored a whole parts blazer with a 5" trailmaster lift for 700. Just gotta keep watching. If that dosnt sound good, go with the rough country. They compensate for the lift by rotating the front diff forward and down so your Cv's don't **** the bed. But, when you do the suspension lift, replace everything else for the front (lower bj's, tie rods, etc) cuz the second you lift it, and change the angle all that old stuff was operating in, its gonna fail.

I keep seeing people trashing suspension lifts saying they create geometry issues. Any decent kit includes all of the necessary parts to correct camber, toe, etc.
The Rough Country kit includes A arms, differential brackets, and new ball joints. Geometry is not an issue when you're buying an actual kit as opposed to just throwing on shock spacers or bigger shocks and drop shackles.
