Default Fender height after 6" lift

Hey guys, I was thinking my truck ended up higher than expected after the lift. I recently installed a 6.5" Mcgauhy lift on 35s on my 2014 F150 4x4 but it seems to sit pretty high. I was thinking since the 2014 don't require as much spacer to lift them why would you use the same strut spacer in the kit. I measured a friends 6" bds F150 on 35s and fender height was 43" to the center of the fender under the flare but mine measures 45". What does everyone else measure?

I'm wondering why the 6" bds sits so low then? I thought they were one of the taller ones. Maybe a few others will chime in also
