Hi all, first time poster, (been lurking for a while though). Love the forum, what a great source of info. What I need to know is if I change to v code springs, how much will the front end raise('01 Limited 4x4)? I've read many posts, with some conflicting opinions...
Supposedly the x codes will give you approx 2.5", but will the v's give around 2" or so?? Buying used v-codes is a lot cheaper than buying a hanger kit  I'd rather buy shocks with that money.
Thanks for any info

Edit: Doh, forgot to say it's a V10... |

Sweet, thanks for the info. I had seen this once but couldn't find it again. Looks like the v codes will get me just under 2"  |
