"B Codes on the rear have the typical mod using the two shortest leaves and the thicker spacers from the stock EX packs. I also have a cut down section of the stock "slapper bar" under the bottom thick B overload plate and the F-350 3.75" tapered blocks."

Yup, and I modded the front X codes too, with the extra top overload from the new rear B codes. Needs tires.......And Robert types faster than me!

In the photo captions I described what I did with both the front X codes (Added extra leaf from the new rears) and the rear B codes (Typical mod, spacers and bottom two EX leaves + splapper bar + 3.75 F-350 block).
As far as how to do, search V/B mods in this forum, lots to read, not too bad of a job with some help though.
My "How much?" came to grand total of about $75. A co-worker gave me his X/B 20k take-offs as well as the rancho shocks. All I had to buy was new U-bolts and 4 new center bolts. I lengthened my rear sway bar end links with stock I had on hand.
"Was it worth it?" For me, you betcha!

Usually, modded B codes equates to using the Excursion bloack correct?
