I went with 3.5 in the front and new 3" blocks in the rear, did it with a 2" puck and 1.5" Eibach adjustable strut with a new upper A arm, I did this so I would have the ability to change the height, the angles on the cv joints was pretty radical, the first snow I drove it in got stuck in my driveway, the massage center said 4x4 temporarily disabled, (overtemp) dropped the front down 1/2" and now the 4x4 works fine. It is amazing the change in the angle of the cv in just 1/2" lowering, I also dropped the rear to just 1" higher than stock, the first pic is 3.5", the second is 3".
If not are you getting any upper control arm binding?
Ive been told that once you go past 2 5/8" lift you get binding when you hit big pot holes and bumps (on the down travel).

I bought the Tough Country extended A arms, no binding, the ride is defiantly stiffer, I ran the same setup on my 13 for 80k, no issues. If you go with the Eibachs the only list them for the 14, same lower configuration. The measurements come out to 40 1/2 front and rear. Tires are 305/55/20.

Do you have any side pictures of the truck with the 305x55r20's?

This is the best side view I have now, it's snowing and the truck is dirty, as far as the offset, I wish I could remover, it's quite a bit from stock, and they are an inch wider.

SST lift
i have a 2015 FX4 and I am thinking about this SST lift and 295/60/20 Ridge Grapplers with a 20X 9 Fuel Sledge wheel.. The man at shop told me if I go with the 34" tire and 20X9 wheel it won't rub on that impact bar on the bumper.. Any thoughts? I was worried about the look not getting a 20x10 rim
