I know you're looking for a kit, but did you try a spring shop?

I will give it a shot. I have never worked on a twin I-Beam front end so this is all speculation. If you use longer springs to raise the front you will change the angle of the wheels (the top will go out and the bottom will go in). So I think you need to get a matched set of spring, I-Beam and maybe radius arm if you are using all Ford parts. So here is how you would probably go about it. If you go from a 4700 lbs spring rate (that's what I have in my 06 2 WD SD with 6.0) to say a 5600 lbs spring rate (if there is such a thing) you need the I-Beam and maybe the radius arm that matches it. The cost for the springs, I-Beams and radius arms would be about $500. Hope this makes since. God luck
