It doesn't come from a big brown truck but is probably your best bet if your in the $150 range.

Cheapest would be a bastard leaf pack in the rear, ZJ V8 front coils and/or spacers in the front.
You do not want to use blocks in the back.
Bastard pack involves taking your leaf springs out, disassembling the pack, adding a couple of S-10 or Dakota leaves to the pack, reassembling and re-installing them.
Junkyard parts...should cost about $75 or even less from the junkyard, depending on the junkyard and where you live.
There are a ton of threads on this, use the search function to find them using "bastard pack"...OrangeAMC did a good writeup.
Good luck!

if you want a lift do not risk a cheap lift you looking to spend atleast 300 to 600. trust me you do not want to risk your jeep to something like that. i would say save money up to get name brand. if its cheap it cheaP for a reason.
