I really want this set up too but I run 15" oem ford aluminum wheels for the winter plus 15" skinnies at the track. My normal wheels are 20s but I change it up quite a bit.

Use the f150 upper ball joint and the e series lower correct?
Here's what I came up with (doesn't matter what year Gen1 you're starting with):
Long Part Number / Motocraft Part Number / Description / Tousley Ford Price
5C2Z-3106-AA / - / spindle, left (for '04-'07 E-150) / $266.07
5C2Z-3105-AA / - / spindle, right (for '04-'07 E-150) / $495.02
YL3Z-1V102-BA / BRR-26 / rotor, front, 5 mounting holes, with bearing cups, 12.83" (326 mm) (for '94-'04 E-150 without traction control) x 2 / $146.96
6C2Z-2B121-C / BRCF-185 / caliper, front, left, unloaded (for '04-'07 E-150) / $105.05
6C2Z-2B120-C / BRCF-183 / caliper, front, right, unloaded (for '04-'07 E-150) / $105.06
6U2Z-2V001-A / BRSD-1045 / brake pad set, front, super duty (for '04-'07 E-150) / $45.34
8C3Z-3049-B / - / ball joints, upper (for '04-'07 E-150) x 2 / $84.96
F6TZ-3050-AB / - / ball joints, lower (for '87-'96 F-150) x 2 / $66.04
If you buy it all new, you're looking at $1,300+ so obviously the junkyard is the way to go for as much of the above as you can get. Couple of notes:
- the optional front ABS traction control rotors will work if you're pulling from a junkyard
- if you pull the entire assembly from the junkyard, you'll have to press out the lower ball joints and replace them with '87-'96 F-150 ball joints
- you can save another couple $ by going with Moog ball joints - #K80196 for uppers and #K8431T for lowers

I love factory upgrades to keep that sleeper look. But is it worth it? Has anyone done this on a low budget? How many 04-07 E150s are in junk yards?

For the cost of all new parts you are almost to the TCE wilwood kit in the group buy.

Well for what its worth I picked up a set of used spindles for around $180 off ebay, i think i had about $900 into my whole e150 upgrade. I saved a lot of money going through rock auto

That's not too bad. Has anyone tested stopping distance before and after?

I have yet to see any of those years at the 2 yards they have over here.

No, but It was a night and day difference once my rotors and pads were worn in. Before it was pretty sketchy slowing doing from 100mph.
However i do think i need to upgrade my brake booster

Cool I might have to do this. Even though I just did ball joints.

I asked this question a while back and can't remember but I do know its got a 1 1/4 bore so look for that
1-1/8" bore ... stock F-150 is 1-1/16"
From http://www.nloc.net/vbforum/faq-sec...-first/213142-finding-replacement-parts.html:
Master cylinder, 1-1/8” bore, w/o cruise switch (1993 4x4 Gas or 4x2 Diesel, F-250 or F-350) = F4TZ-2140-G / Motorcraft BRMC-66 / Wagner MC120368
Master cylinder, 1-1/8” bore w/cruise switch (1994-95 4x4 Gas or 4x2 Diesel, F-250 or F-350) = F4TZ-2140-H / Bendix 12842 / Napa M93241 / Wagner MC131211
