Or like you mentioned 2 inch hangers?
I have the same F350 blocks you have and the same V's, if i raised front 4 inches i would sit 2inches higher in the front. Now with the RAS i have gained 1 inch but still would sit 1 inch higher in the front with 4 inch hanger.
Can i also bother you to measure from center of hub to bottom of fender both front and rear.
Picked you cause your somebody!!
I'm in no hurry, so no pressure!

Center hub to fenderwell,
My front measurement is driver-28".
Rear is driver-28 3/4".
Front hanger measures 6 1/4" from the top of the hanger to the center of the spring bolt. No idea what the stock perch measures. Maybe some one with a known 4" or 2" hanger can measure theirs?

My shackles are stock but I do have add a leafs in the rear springs as part of the hanger kit. The add a leafs usually yield around 1 1/2" of lift. I think most hanger kits would come with an add a leaf or block. Generally the rear get's half the lift of the front to maintain a level stance.

Your front is 3 inches higher than mine.
Your rear is 2.5 inches higher than mine.
So now I know there is no way the 315's will fit with just X codes.
I will start looking at hanger kits etc.
Not going to X codes.
Thanks again,
Michael
