Leaf spring questions.

[purpleheart350]

Ok I am going to get F350 x-code springs for the front. My question is what springs should I get for the rear to balance it out. And what shocks should be good to run on it. I was thinking of bilstine 5100 but the one I have found all say 2" and up lifts, so which one would I need?

Don't mean to derail but what is the difference between U, V, and X code front springs? Weight rating, lift?

Generally, weight rating. That will also affect ride height, spring rate, and so on.
As far as matching x codes, I'd guess b codes and a roughly 3" block to keep ride height consistent. I used u-codes up front, with b codes and a two inch block. U codesign being the next lighter spring, I think 4800 lbs, for the pair.
Google superduty spring codes, or call ct performance, goes by obswiz on here. Cary knows his stuff, excellent to deal with!
