I installed the V codes and modified F codes last year and have been happy until the V codes started to sag a bit. I looked into W codes and X code front springs but did not want to go to a higher spring rate just for a bit of lift. I found the mini spring packs on Ebay and contacted the manufacturer. Their spring packs have five leafs to give 2.5" of lift which was too high for my front end. They agreed to custom make a set with only three leafs for a 1.5" lift. Very nice folks to deal with. The set arrived at my door in a week for $150.00 including shipping and tax. I have the link below and some photos which I hope come through. The ride has firmed up just a tad but is not really much of a difference. The important thing is that the truck now is more level and handles and brakes much better. The front end used to dive under hard braking and cornering.
