Put me down as another Ford/Fox 2.0 satisfied customer. Great road ride and handling compared to the the FX4's and being a Ford part there shouldn't be any warranty concerns. They also level the truck as you want.

I chose Eibach front and rear with stock springs and front at 2.25 setting. Truck is 2wd w/locker. I am very pleased and it was $ well spent.

I have been following this an other threads and similar on one of the Ranger FB pages (they are quite heavy into off road). I am street driver, have 4WD for snow and resale, but would like to bring the front up a bit and improve the ride a little. My conclusion at this point is Bilsteins adjusted up some. Depends on when the K/N CAI is available as that would compete for the $$.

I am running the Ford Performance (Fox) 2.0 Leveling Kit on my FX4. It vastly improved the street ride, which was my main concern, although I also appreciate that it improves the approach and crossover angles, because you never know....
Nice! I’m having the Ford/Fox 2.0 kit installed today. Looking forward to the improvements.

Do your self a favor and dont go K&N. They let way too much dirt and debris in and will trash both the turbocharger and engine. I learned this myself.

Back to Roush I guess - wish Ford Performance would make one. Wondered since I have the FP tune how it would react to adding the Roush CAI?

It reacts quite nicely as a matter of fact. I have both the Ford tune and the Roush CAI. Add to that a more free flowing exhaust (than stock) and you’ve got yourself a pretty killer combination; I went with the Ford (Borla) Performance exhaust. No complaints, it all works together beautifully.

I have that also - see the tips poking out in my pic. Had a Borla on an '02 Mustang GT and loved it but it is amazing that our trucks will put those 4.6 ponys out to pasture. Thanks for the input..
