X code spring question

I have a 2003 F350 with the plow package setup with x code front springs. I am the second owner. Its time to replace the x codes. My question is will the new ones bring the front somewhat level with the rear or do ineed a leveling kit with the new x codes.

they will get you close but it will still sit a little higher in the rear.

Thanks for the reply. I can deal with it being a little lower in the front.
How do I set up my signature for my truck mods. I can't find it in the user cp. Thanks

I have a 2000 F250 SD,Crew cab,7.3.Automatic.4X4.I had saggy U code springs,and brand new B code rear springs.I wanted my truck to sit level.I bought a set of X code springs that had about 50000 miles on them from a salvage yard.I ended up cutting my U codes down to about 15 inches long and used them for an add a leaf.Truck wouldnt have sat level without them.My ride quality isnt too bad either.Hope this helps.

With a little tilt front to back
