X code Front Springs level?
I have been searching and have found multipul answers.
If I use JUST the V or X front springs as they come out of the box.
How much taller is that?
Level the truck? Nose up? I hate nose up and do not want to do rears right now.
I found a truck for donor fronts but the rears have been modified and wont work for me.

Somewhere between +1.5" to +2.5" of lift in the front depending on how worn your existing springs are and what engine you have. V's will put you near level or slightly 'nose up' depending on the condition of your stockers. X's will definitely put you 'nose up'. My truck gained about 2.5" in the front by swapping out the stock springs front some gently used V's. In hindsight I should have went with X-codes just for the additional height compared to the V's but whatever. If you're looking for a more affordable alternative to B-codes for the rear, check out the ProComp add-a-leaf kit. Right around $100 shipped from amazon. It gave my truck around +2.5" in the rear and eliminated the excessive wandering.
