Rasbo:
depends on how far you want to go. alot of people only change the prop if they get alot of vibration or are using it at extreme angles often. also castor arms are debatable to whether you need them. all depends on your individual motor. try and stay away from h.duty springs as they wont have as much flex in them.

Eeyore:
First question to ask is what you want the vehilce to do?

This can make a huge diffference to what is better suited to your needs. It can also make a biggo difference to your budget, too.

well i just want to do the odd bit of off roading ,bit o greenlanes. nothing to heavy

its a 110 9seater , i tow a jetski with it now and then , i still use it on road most of the time it will just be the odd day hear and there , maybe a weekend

Porny:
Personnally...

For your planned usage, I wouldn't bother with a lift kit.  Apart from increased body roll, increased insurance costs, need for castor corrected arms etc etc... You wouldn't really gain anything.

I'd just fit LR HD rear springs, and a set of good quality dampers....  but that's just me.
