Hello! New to the forum. Just picked up a gently used 2014 2wd 5.0 SCrew XLT. I have been trying to do some research on this and love seeing these posts- however- I am assuming there is a difference in suspension from 2013-14? Can some of you guys with 14s let me know what y'all are running? I'm interested in going either billsteins with a block out back or doing a 2-2.5 upfront with a block out back. Please help as I would like to do this to my truck. If you can point me in some directions of where I can order these items.

They don't make bilsteins for 2014's yet. You can either do the leveling spacers or coilovers. I went with the Fox 2.0 coils with stock 4x4 rear block's (1.25"). They come with 2.5" inches of lift out of the box. It's advertised 2" but the 2014's and especially 2wd seem to get more lift out of them. Nice part is you can always crank them down for less lift! They do have a bigger price tag though.
Here's a photo of a loaner I had for few days about two years ago. I really liked it. When I got it, I commented on how the previous owner removed the 4times4 sticker. Surprised when my salesman told me it WAS a RWD.
Well, after 9 months I finally put on my Boss Coilovers! 2.5 Front and 2in rear block. Has a slight rake to it. Don't know if I like it yet. Contemplating going to 2.75 or 3 in the front. Tires and Alignment are happening tuesday. Total time of install was about 3hrs. Rides great so far, can't wait for 275/65/20 BFG KO2s to be slapped on.

I think it you should go up another 1/2" up front, but thats just me. I would definitely do this before you have it all aligned.

I think it looks great. How was the install of the rear blocks?
