Nothing wrong with replacing the coils, many many 2WD owners have lift coils. Fabtech, Camburg and Maxtrac make lift coils for your Ranger.
Yes you do need longer shocks. The stock shocks are too short.
However before you submit yourself to the labor intensive job replacing the coil springs, a simple spindle lift is just a tad more on price, and it doesn't change the ride quality or geometry of your suspension. It also gives you an opportunity to replace your rotors and bearings since those parts will be removed and transferred for the lift anyways. Spindles are hands-down the "best" lift for a 2WD.
Spindle lift you can keep your stock shocks.
Maxtrac sells spindles for about 300
Maxtrac coils $165
Camburg coils $250
Fabtech coils $147
+ New shocks and alignment ~ $200
