According to my technical contact at Air Lift your 2003 Ford Focus ZX5 Hatchback is classified as a sedan style and the Airlift Air Helper Spring # AL60723 kit is recommended for your vehicle.

Airlift recommends the # AL60724 kit for use on the wagon based on the spring size of the wagon. The difference between the # AL60723 and the # AL60724 is that the air bags in the # AL60724 kit are 1.5 inches longer than the other, and that is why that kit is recommended for the wagon version of the 2003 Ford Focus.

You may want to consider an air lift controller to be installed on your vehicle like the Air Lift Load Controller II Compressor System # AL25592. If this system detects that the air pressure in the air bags is too low it will automatically kick on, therefore avoiding air spring failure.

I have included a link to the part listed above for your reference.
