Suspension codes

Anyone have a list of the suspension codes for our trucks. My dads for some reason sits up higher than mine and i checked the codes and ours r different. Im wondering if maybe he has a different spring upfront ot not?

If the codes are different then the springs are different. Many factors involved here, weight of engine, how the truck is equipped, body style, etc. AFAIK there's not a list of springs by spring rate and spring code. It could be that your springs are simply worn out & in need of replacement.
