Ttb front end to coilover conversion

I have a couple of questions and seeing if anyone can help me out. I own a 1997 f250 7.3l diesel and trying to get a better ride. So i was thinking of switching from to horrible leaf system in the front to a coilover. Has anyone heard of this being done?????? Or is there a better alternative? I live in the desert and go out quit often. I have a buddy that can do the fabrication no problem i.e. Making radiuis arms and pivot brackets with 10 plus years of experience.

I hear that moving the shackle to the back of the spring does wonders.
