Not enough information to give any pointers.
What do the tarballs contain?
Is it sourcecode, that needs to be compiled?
How is their relation to each other?
Why combine them in the first place?You must always face the curtain with a bow.

So what do you usually do to install the sourcecode in the three tarballs?
something like this?:
tar xpf 1.tar
cd <DIR>
./configure && make && make install
cd ..
tar xpf 2.tar
cd <DIR>
./configure && make && make install
cd ..
tar xpf 3.tar
cd <DIR>
./configure && make && make installYou must always face the curtain with a bow.

I am sorry, but the information you provide is way too vague.
It would be quite easy to untar all three and create a new tarball from the unpacked files/directorys.
untar them: tar xpf...
create a new one: tar cpf...
However, this is not "one install" then.
This is just one tarball instead of three.
You would still have to compile three times.
So just the transportation of the sourcecode got a little bit modified.
Which may or may not be a good thing, depends on what you are actually trying to achieve.You must always face the curtain with a bow.
