Default Lower Control Arms

I wanna get rid of my crappy torsion bar suspension on my 4x4 2000 f150 and replace it with a coilover suspension, however I want to use 2004 lower control arms does any know if the geometry is the same as the torsion bar arms?

It's more money than its worth trying to put the 04+ lower arm on your truck. Plus they are not all that strong. You would more then likely have to have the mounts changed over as well as have a custom mount made for the top coilover mount. It would be easier and more then likely cheaper to do the Dixon kit.
