Good base to start from.

KC Daylighters... how many, how's the battery, alternator ?
You willed to fortify the charging system to support the lights.
150 watt Daylighters, each light draws 12.5 amps, that calls for 12 ga. wire per lights, pairs call for 10 ga. wire, plus one 30 amp rated relay per set of two lights minimum.
To me Daylighters are by far better than LEds, but some of the newer LEDs are looking good. 

The lifting of the truck, if you just tweak the T-Bars, you end up with hard ride, best to consider a Suspension lift, everyone to their own.

The Bed Light Project is a good one, you can see the results, and it is usable.  I have 6 LED License Plate Lights to go on  my truck bed.  Three mounted on each side should be far more than needed, I might consider two per side before the project get started.

The picture shows how easy it is to mount these lights, two screws, then the wiring and that can go all over the place.




Another mod that is something to think on, IF you intend to keep the truck for a while, is Projector Headlights.  The Ranger lighting is bad to say the least and new headlights are a plus.  I'm not talking the Projector headlight Housings you buy on eBay, the best way to do this is a Custom Shop, Lightwerks or The Retrofit Store, both are expensive but their work is good.  Another pending project for me, I have the parts just need to attempt the project myself.


Enjoy your truck, it always fun to mod these trucks and there are a lot of things to do.
