Can someone direct me to a chart that I saw regarding the ride hieght and rate differences of the stock Ford front springs when installed on the X with a Powerstroke? In particular there is a stock Ford spring that will level the vehicle without increasing hte rate and thus sacrifice ride quality. Thanks, Greg |

Do a little bit more searching. I researched this a couple months back and the answer was going with a V rated front spring from a quad cab dually 4x4 I believe. It will lift the front of the X approximately 1-2 inches, but I have not tried for myself as of yet.
