I think Skyjacker makes the best kits for Rangers and Bronco II's.

I went with a Rough Country 4in lift. Very cheap I know. I have done some very hard wheeling Like broken the stock driveshaft (now have a custom F150 shaft) and taken the front swaybar off and have had no problems with the lift at all. Blocks on the rear work for me. Im getting and 8.8 and coilovers for the rear in the next month so it will replace them. I cant complain with Rough Country (yet).
Oh and the front springs are pretty soft which is nice and haven't had any settling with over 5,000 miles on it.
things youll need:
Extended Front brake lines even though rough country says you dont need them
Extended E-Brake. I tore mine out articulating it

What is your idea on both uses?

Basicly longer or softer coils for the front will help it drop out, and as for the rear you can fab up some shackles.
If your looking for 4 inches of lift, you can do an add-a-leaf and make 2 inch shackles.
The B2's Rear leaf springs are really tough and can turn inside out without damage (knock on wood). So i would just keep them instead of getting a whole new set of lift leafs
