Thanks for the info on that, I wasn't 100% sure about ride comfort. Although it seems my calculations are correct. Do you have a pic of how your truck sits now? I assume you have 2" up front. I should have the level on this weekend, then I can measure everything out before ordering info.

Read this thread and see what I have done with the general spring ones. Perfect IMO combined with 2" level. 3/4 inch of rake once settled and spacer removed. (not block, spacer)

Son of a b***h! The lower control arm and strut mount is different on the 2014's!

Basically I can't get the strut out without compressing it, or removing the lower control arm. Neither option is available to me. Ah well, off too pay a bloody mechanic.
