You might give Coil Spring Specialties a call and see what he can do for you. I sent him one of my front coils, specified a spring rate and ride height. He sent me a pair of springs for about $150 and they fit perfect and the ride height was spot on!

I don't know how the ford is set up but you might be able to use circle track springs and an adjustable shim. Should be able to get both springs and shims for around $150.

Check out this months' Popular Hot Rodding. They just bought one and lower it by cutting the front spring (one coil) which comes out to about 2" of drop.
