You only need to replace the ones that are bad, but it makes sense to replace all of them at the same time...

If you can afford to replace all of them of course replace them if not just replace the ones that are bad.

Replace them all as the rest will soon cause problems. Make sure you only use the Ford Motorcraft units as there are sometimes problems with the coils you get from the aftermarket.
