Default Rough country or what? Need a cheap lift

So I am thinking of doing the rough country series 2 3inch with the rear shocks can get it shipped for around 660... But would like to go cheaper... But still want a 3 inch... Any ideas?

Rear shocks instead of add a leaf?
Those are two completely different components. You will need 4 new shocks.2 front 2 rear and at least an add a leaf spring in the rear if your stock leaves are still in good shape. A kit will have 3" coils for the front in it.
