Why not just do a custom style torque arm setup since you already have the mounting points for the ladder bar already set up. Also add a front sway bar to help with body roll. And will the 5.4 be N/A, turbo or supercharged?

I thought about using the ladder bar cross member to mount a torque arm.The 5.4 is out of a 99 E250 but needs a new crank.Thought about doing a turbo setup.There is so much that needs to be changed that would love to just sell it and build a new car.

Anything other than that is just peein' in the wind. You could give the car away and be money ahead by the time you change everything about the car. Sell it -- make a plan - buy or build new what you want this time around.
