OK, after tons of research and lots more actual work, I've finally completed the installation of my 3.5" suspension lift. Based on feeback by others in this forum I decided to go with the BC Broncos front coils and rear springs. For shocks I chose a single shock setup using Bilstein 5100 series shocks. The shocks are all 10" travel and use F250 shock mounts up front. I know that this is not the preference of some, but my lift uses a track bar drop bracket and a drop pitman arm. I have to say that the ride quality is excellent and I'm very impressed with the BC broncos setup. At the same time I switched out my 31x10.50 all terrain tires with 33x12.50 mud terrains. I also went from a 15x8 rim to a 15x10 rim.
Here's a pic of the new BC front coils and Bilstein shocks:
