Can't find 2.25" leveling kit for 2014 F-150 4WD?
I cannot seem to find a leveling kit for my truck that is 2.25". I specifically want 2.25 because that's what I measured as the difference between my front and rear fenders to the ground. My OCD won't let me go with a 2" or 2.5", and I do NOT like spacer kits. Does anyone have any information on some suspension leveling kits that are maybe adjustable so that I could get a perfectly level truck?

Spacers for example could be sold as "2" level", but you could end up with anywhere from 1.5" to 2.5" of level.
Also, measure from the center of the center cap to the fender arch. Measuring to the ground from the fender doesn't take into account tread wear, tire pressure, etc and will not give you precise measurements.

Also, as an actual diagnosed OCD sufferer, let me point out that it is not OCD to want to lift the front of your truck level with the back. See

Jee wiz. Sorry if that OCD comment upset you... I am just being picky. Although, I do believe you took that a bit too far. I obviously wasn't targeting anyone with anything.
Anyways, I actually remeasured from the top of the rim to the fender which came out to be EXACTLY 2". So, a 2" shock would be perfect. Thank you 2008 XL.

And I didn't realize the adjustable shocks for the 09+ were so much $$ and that the commonly used ones in the 04-08 gen are not available.
I know you don't want to go the route, but, a 1.5" or 2" spacer would honestly be your best bet and you'd pay well under $100 total (not including the alignment you'll need). I'd recommend 1.5" just to leave the tiniest bit of rake (won't be that noticeable).
Lastly, whether you go with adjustable coilovers, shocks or a spacer, all of them will change the suspension angles just about the same. The spacer is just the easiest and cheapest.
