Suspension Question?

I have a 99 expedition with the air suspension on the back and front. My question is can i replace the rear air bags with regular coil over springs that come on some model expeditions? If i can do this what will i have to change?

There is a kit out there to do this, and I've read posts of members who dunnit, one even sold air suspesnsion parts to me. I'm not sure if i can be done only for the rear though. Also , I believe the replacement, like stock spring suspension is not coil over spring - the shocks are outside the coil springs but only those who converted theirs can confirm that.
