What if: You had the money to blow
I would pick up some 33's, rear locker, tint, audio, nice bed cover, some HID's for my fogs, LED's for all my other lights, maybe RCD and BL, I'm sure I can think of some more stuff later.

I'm already doing my SAS but I'd throw in some coil overs front an rear and get rid of the leaf springs. The most wicked front and rear tube bumpers tied into my sliders and a cage. Custom seats that are made of a waterproof camo material (maybe neoprene). Selectable lockers front and rear instead of my automatic lock-rights. A doubler would be pretty awesome. While I'm blowing this fake money I'd also upgrade to 9 inch rear and a dana 60 front axle with chromos all around. Hydro steering would be a nice touch as well.
DBR LT 2wd kit
Deaver f31s
Beltech shackles
DBR tube bumper for the front
cobra cb with PA
8' whip antenna
33-1250 BFG ATs
15x10 Mickey Thompson Classic Locks w/ Red Rings.
a good tuner
underdrive pullies
JBA headers
Magnaflow y-pipe
JBA exhaust
line-x bedliner
06 corners
Go Rhino single/single bed bar w/ light bar with 130W KC Daylighters
think that's all for now.

Here is my list......
c-notch and 2" drop spindles, total drop 8/9ish
repaint interior
navigation system (I miss my old one)
2 12" subs instead of 1
explorer cluster and OHC
supercharger, roller rockers, UD pullies
fuel cell
edge hood
perfect alignment
door poppers
shaved everything, except bodyline
and I'm sure after all that is done I will find something else that I want to do
I'm hoping to lower it as far as possible static and have a very comfortable interior with navigation and such and an awesome paint job and she'll be done
If I had the money I'd take it to camburg and get a long travel 4x4 system. Bro light bar up top, bro lights in the front, system, maintain it street legal, and rather nice rims for an off road vehicle.
If I had to use the money on the ranger then it would be:
Super charged 5.0 or some kind of little turbo diesel
Built manual tranny
Sas
Manual transfer case
D60's all around
locker front and back
Tire size unknown
Nice set of aluminum rims

How much money are we talking here? For the sake of entertainment I'll assume enough to do anything I wanted. 
So with that said:
07 Ranger would get a Full Coilover Setup with 4-link and I'd get the body fixed up. All the hail damage I have as well as the holes I have from the flares. Secondly, I'd buy a 427 SOHC Cammer Engine, go to Advanced Adapters and have them get me a setup that could handle 700 HP and still be AWD.
99 Ranger I'd get my Suspension Parts (Coilovers and Links) followed by a Ford Racing Cammer 5.0 with a ZF Tranny and Atlas 4 T-Case. Buy 2 Spider 9 Steering Axles, and make it rear steer. And then call it good for awhile. Maybe go up to 38" Boggers instead of 35".

I trip to Illinois to Beard's house for a few months.
I've told him for the last couple years.....when I win the lotto, I'm dropping the truck off with a $50,000 check. Now, I don't know if it'll be dropped off before or after the Brazilian Ranger parts and drivetrain gets throw into mine, as well as frame lengthening....but either way, it's getting a date with a Brazilian Ranger and an '03 Sonic Blue Ranger in Il.
Oh...forgot to add....Full repaint to that super super super dark grey that come on Fiddys and Stangs, with a DWB stripe or something...gotta stay DWB somehow....and my other color choice, the dark brown color of Buckey's and Beard's trucks, don't go to well with DWB. lol.

I'd sell the Ranger and buy a full size..........end of story. LOL
My Ranger doesn't fit my lifestyle anymore....or to clarify, my family. Nowhere to put the baby seat for my little boy, and the wire said she ain't sitting in the back.....LOL
On the hunt for a "family" vehicle now......LOL
As much as I'd love a full size, money wise and fuel economy, I'm looking at the 09/10 Escapes.

Keep my current fresh paint job, and:
Aluminum block 347 stroker, AFR 185s, custom grind, Cobra U & L, S-trim, #42s, TKO-500, T-Bird IRS 8.8" and Mustang front clip with Cobra brakes all round'. Tube chassis, bed mounted fuel cell and battery, Anthracite FR500's, 18x9" in the front, 18x11" rear. True dual exhaust with Bassani X pipe and mufflers with dual electric cut outs.

Weigh about 3100lbs and make close to 600hp on pump gas . . .
Yeah, I've thought it over a time or two.

For me it would be SAS and a V8 for my current truck.
Realistically:

5.4L DOHC with a heavy build.. a strong 5 or 6 speed manual to go with.. full custom tune with a dual-screw supercharger.. runnign 35's on a custom 4x4 long travel suspension. Full body armor all around, all line-x'ed w/ a nice paint job. 500w Dual 10" Sub's, running an amp to power my current 6x9 JBL's... dual behind-the-grill HID lamps w/ custom projector housing headlights running 50/55w dual beams - custom front and rear bumper.. both running 9000lb winch setups inset back to the frame.
