My f550 had x codes. It was 2" higher than my F350 dually up front. I don't remember what code front leafs are in my f350 off hand. But I do know that the x codes rode rougher than them.

2". And trac bar is reccomended but not NEEDED per say. Your axle will be toward the driver side a inch or so more

A track bar is requires unless as stated you like the axle offset, bushing wear etc...

X codes will ride stiffer but great for a snow plow or heavy winch bumper.

2" hanger kit or a mini spring pack will ride better with the factory v codes..

longer shocks should be used except with a mini spring pack

Pm me if I can help, we carry all.

I would go with that route but one of the stock springs is gone and replaced with two add a leafs on one side. So im just gonna put a new set of springs on the front.

I think it rides fine. I can measure it tomorrow. I used a 4" block in the rear to level it. 33" tire on a 20x10 just barley rubs at full lock.

X codes and a 2" mini spring pack is a 4" lift...at that point I'd do a drop track bar bracket and a droped pitman.
