1998 sport 2wd 4.0l ohv (293,x..)

The frame is perfect, I just need to redo the entire power train, drive train, and suspension. I am one of those go big or home type of person (or ridiculously ambitious lol). I have a junkyard just south of Atlanta that is slammed packed with different Ford vehicles. Do you guys think this is a good start for my "Ultimate Explorer"?

Here is my potential mod wishlist(not including little stuff):
