Ok so I am trying to put together my own suspension with the x codes. I know everyone says go with Cary but I don't have that budget. I have found x codes and b codes really cheap. I am looking for shocks and wanted to know if I can just get 350 shocks and will be the appropriate height. And will the 350 rear shocks work or do I need different ones.

X codes are front springs
Are you charging anything in the rear? You only asked about rear shocks?

I have X codes and F250 block out back and I sit about 1/2" high in the rear still- perfect rake for me

I'm pretty sure I have x codes (according to PO) with 250 blocks in the back and its the exact opposite. 1/2" down in the back. Need to check everything because the negative rake is annoying towing.

I have bilstein shocks. I'll check the part number on them.

B codes and a two inch block in my ex, and it sets level. I still have stock shocks, but this truck doesn't go offroad. You may want to change to an adjustable track bar in the front, tho.

Here's how mine sits, almost looks low in the back on the first pic but it doesn't measure out that way
Fox shocks fwiw

That's how mine looks in the first pic. I'll have to measure it.
