IFS to SFA conversion

i have an 89 F-150..that i have plans to lift but i dont want the IFS.....ive been looking lately at wrecked F-350's trying to do some research on what i want to get myself into...if anyones tried it or has any ideas let me know....because ive searched on the nets and the kits to do it are around $3000 so im looking to save a penny or two and i have the mechanical skills and tools to do it im just looking for some tips and tricks....

Thanks..

from the swaps I've done its easier to swap in a 78/9 dana 44 with the coil springs you can still use your coils and alot of other stuff plus it will ride better
