Anyone lower a 2014 RT? I lowered my 2011 RT and 2012 crew. Looked under my 14 and noticed aluminum lower control arms. I didn't know if this was an issue or not.

Not an issue, my 13 has the same aluminum control arms. I have the McGaughy deluxe kit which has the lower front spindles. McG has cut a section in the spindle to clear the larger ball joint area, just have to make sure you order the kit for 13-14 models. Mine went in without a problem.
Also there are several members here using the spring kits like BellTech and McG without issues with the new arms.

afaik all 13+ 2WD 1500 (including R/T) use the same lower control arm
04877198AB or 04877199AB for L & r side, see e.g.

Believe they did, the ball joint area on the 13-14 arms is larger than previous years. If you try to install lowering spindles from an earlier kit, they will interfere.
