-keep the shocks
-keep the control arms
-keep the coil springs
-ditch the blocks and get a Add-A-Leaf
They make 2" lift kits that come with spacers and shackles, you can get that to add a couple inches.

a long arm 3in lift huh? thats weird... depends if its adjustable if you wanna add spacers up front... would be nice if you could adjust he control arms to take them... on the rear get rid of the blocks and go with a leaf pack or AAL or something... big ole shackles on stock springs is kinda silly too...

3 blocks on the rear!?!?! that's a lot of unnecessary stress on the leaf pack. one option would be to get new rear leaf spring packs, like a good 3" replacement. once you have procured those, get a budget boost kit like JSwamper mentioned. another option would be to do a front end spacer kit and buy a leaf pack with the required lift specs you are looking for, like these --------> click it, or ticket. once you get more money in the future, you could then always upgrade you front end springs, shocks, and control arms with other separately purchased units.
