Default BB F150 coil springs..

Does anyone have a working part number (CS8228 isnt working for me) for the 1978 F150 coils we are suppose to use for the 4-4.5in budget lift? Ive tried searching on here and on both Advance and Autozones sites to no avail.. Any info would be greatly appreciated.. Im looking to pick up some RC 4in leafs tomorrow and want to have everything ready by the weekend. Thanks.

For that price you could get some XJ lift coils and not have a jeep that rides like a tank, which it will with f150 coils. I ran mine for all of 2 days and replaced them.
