Default 2014 leveling kit any different?

I would think since the spacer sits on top that they are they same. I have been reading the 2014 f150 takes a different kit? I have an old 2.5 auto spring kit from my 2012 f150 4x4. Will it work?

I would Think it would work, only thing I know is different is the lower caontrol arm on the 14s? Dumb why they changed this last yr of the trucks run! And the struts bolts are pressed in it on the bottom of the strut/shock!

They work. You do have to rotate you OEM coilover 180 degrees after bolting the spacer to the top of the Coilover, which will change the angle of the pressed pins (bolts) of the 2014 lower mount. But if you move the rotated Passenger side to the Drivers side (and vise versa) the lower pins (bolts) are now at the correct angle. We have sold a lot of spacers for the 2014, I actually haven't done the install myself but a tech in Louisiana called us and explained how it is done.

I actually had to do this with my 2013 EB...I just traded for a 2014 FX4 today w/5.0. I had the dealer swap over my aftermarket wheels & tires. I need a leveling kit next. First mod to my new ride. The V-8 sounds awesome!

So your older kit worked on the 2014 no problem?

I think the only difference is the spacer may net you a different result in height if installed on a '14 strut, but the older spacers will definitely fit on the '14 struts.

I had the rough country level today. When talking with the shop I was told that rough country list a 14 model level. He also stated he called them and was told the kit is different. Did just the front with 285/65/20 ko2 love it. Only problem they jacked up a wheel. Have to go back Monday to try and work something.
