coil overs?

I know it's been done, but I'm not sure what would be involved in the overall conversion. It's a 2wd setup and I'm trying to Hey added suspension travel to make it handle the trails and fields at higher speeds. Was thinking lift with quality coil overs and extended radius arms and softer lead springs in the back with some extra stiffening back there. It would be a slow process because I'll have to make a lot of stuff.

Some interesting builds there. I need to do some reading. I won't be wheeling as hard as some of them but the ability to beef it up so stuff doesn't break when I take it out.
