you'd be better of getting custom axles made. unless his rearend is shortened 1-1.5" per side when you install the spacers your rears are going to stickout.

H & R makes adapters, but they're not cheap.

ok, so they're not just made for his bolt pattern, but for fords in general.

the H&R spacers should work great for you, they're about 30mm i think.
