Super duty leaf spring question

Hi. Does anyone with a diesel and NEW v codes or x codes have a side view photo of the front of their truck they could post? I am trying to get a visual idea how much arch each of these different springs has with the weight of the truck on them. Thanks for any help here.

I can't answer your question but there was a thread awhile back that might help.

I have some in my garage floor but that won't help you without any weight on them. I will be glad to snap a pic of them if you like.

Yes, thank you that would help a lot! Are they v codes or x codes? And the other important factor is, are they brand new? If not new, how old are they and how many miles are on them? Could you provide a photo of them and a height measurement? (with the spring on level ground, upside down, the measurement from the ground to the highest point, which would be the center of the pad). Thank you so much.
