X code springs

I have a 99 f350 psd 4x4 that sits nose down. i was wondering if the X code plow prep spring will raise the nose about an inch and a half or will i need a leveling kit also? I have an 8' minute mount II on the front of the truck. i understand if it squats a little with the plow on, my concern is how the truck normally with no plow. Oh yea the current front springs are rated for 5200lbs. i forget what letter code that is. any input is much appreciated

bottom line here is you will need the x-springs period. If you are gonna plow then you need the 6K springs.

It should raise it up what you need too. Better check to make sure you have a tranny cooler on that truck too while you are at it.
