Looking for the right suspension system.

Hey guys, I'm trying to find a 2-4" kit that comes with everything, including full leafs. Thats where my problem has been, is finding something without blocks. Cost is a factor, but I'd rather spend a bit more money than go with a rough/tuff country lift. If I have to i will though. I know in the jeep world I can mix and match my own lift using parts from other trucks, is it the same with the fords too?

Also, I can find a few lifts, mainly from skyjacker, that have full leafs. My only question is why are they so expensive compared to my cherokee? It doesn't seem right, since the kits come with front and rear springs, control arms, and u-bolts pretty much

See, that just seems outrageously expensive to me. Maybe the Jeep world is just alot cheaper huh? I can get a top of the line 4.5" kit for $1300 for the cherokee.
