The '14's are more of a PITA then previous years. I installed the Autospring 1.5" on my FX4 and it sits perfectly level now. With the Autospring, you have to rotate the strut 180 degrees when re-installing due to the way it mounts to the top of the strut. You might be able to get away with leaving the lower 2 strut bolts connected since you're using the Daystar kit. If you do, you'll have to at least loosen them in order to pull the top of the strut to the outside of the tower in order to get the spacer installed.

There are 2 ways of doing the install. I went with sliding the front shafts out of the hubs. Here's my write-up.

Good Luck.

I used the HBS level, think it was the 2.5" and was level till I put 35x12.50 Nittos on it. Now I am (F) 40.75" from the ground to fender edge and (R) 39.50". I need to make up the 1.25"...... ideas? What is the size of the factory block? I really want to keep it level. Truck looks level but its not.
