Drop Axle vs. Mono Leafs

I just bought a 1961 F-100 and I am in the process of lowering it, I already got the back C-notched and flipped and was wondering if anyone makes a drop axle for this truck? Also if I was to run the 5" drop mono leafs in the front would my truck bottom out a lot? I am running a 351W and C-4 so not a lot of weight up front. Any feedback will help.

Whenever you lower the front of a 61-64, you have to keep in mind axle to oil pan clearance.
