x-spring installation question.

Is the swap from v code to x code springs a sraight swap? i am using new ubolts. I have a stock 02 250 psd sc long bed 4x4. I will be keeping the two inch rear blocks, better for towing. Do I need any other parts or make any adjustments, will I need a alignment after? thanks alot I appreciate all responses.

Should be a straight swap, I even think the same sway bar link is used. You shouldn't need an alingment, but your steering wheel may be off center. You will need to loosen the collar on your drag link and make the nessecary adjustment, but remember only 1/4 turn at a time, lock it back down, back up pull forward and see where your wheel sits.
