Best RV route into Yosemite

We are traveling to crane Flat CG in Yosemite next week. We were concerned about height restrictions (10'6"?) driving in on 41. Would 140 be better? We have a Cougar 276RLS and Chevy silverado 3500 6.0. Last time we were in Yosemite (almost 30 years ago) we were much younger with a truck camper, no reservations, 3 kids, a dog and no worries! At that time I don't remember height restrictions. Any advice for best route?
Thanks

    Thank you for the info. I found this time lapse drive cam while I was looking http://www.takemytrip.com/10cali/08n_19a.htm#drivelapse
    140 doesn't look too bad going by this

    Yes 120 is the west entrance.It is also the east entrance at tioga pass.Have not gone 140. There was a length limit I believe and my 5er is 40 ft.

    Thank you cabanaman, when you mention the west entrance, do you mean the 120? We are coming from the south, I read about taking the 49 at oakhurst to the 140. Have you tried the 140 (arch rock entrance)?
