Putting in a stock back up system in to a vehicle without will be a tricky and probably expensive project. On my 2002, I am not sure where the buzzer is, but I believe it's a programmed feature and to turn it on, you will need either a J2534 pass thru or a good ford dealer. In either case, it will probably require a hack to binary or you will have to dig up a matching "as built" file for your truck with the back up sensors.

I think it would be much easier to install a kit like Echomaster's or one of the step bars with wireless backup sensors. Echomaster's kit looks pretty stock and works about the same.
