Front spring conversion kit?

I have a 1999 F150 XLT, 5.4L, 4x4, extended cab, short bed. Currently there is no front springs (a-arm). Is there a conversion kit that is available to upgrade it?

Thanks,
J

You are right in saying you don't have coil springs, you have torsion bars instead. However, you do have dual a-arms. RockKrawler Suspensions makes a lift kit for your truck that converst your front suspension to a coilover system like the 04-07 F-150's.

I don't know anyone who has used one. I have read two very favorable reviews in 4x4 magazines, but both were on Chevy's.

Front suspension conversion kit

Will thins RockKrawler Suspensions kit allow me to use a plow?
Currently I have a 7 1/2 foot plow on the truck and I only plow my driveway. I'd like to pick up a few driveways this winter. I trying to decide weather I should keep the truck or get rid of it and buy another one.

Thanks
