Few fellow riders throwing their pics in so I'll drop a couple.
Up in Oregon for the eclipse a few years back,
The sometimes I want to be a hooligan bike.
Unless they can prove your suspension kit of choice was the cause of the failure you are good to go, it doesn't apply to non related stuff at all, say your motor drops a valve, they wouldn't even think of mentioning your suspension. Goggle the Moss Magnuson Act if that is confusing at all...
I too went with the Ford performance Fox 2.0 kit and think they are fantastic.
IMHO I think the 2 most inexpensive and worth doing options now are the Bilstein 5100s or the Eibach and reusing your springs since you mention nothing too crazy. I understand that the Bilstein were just released...
Just went and looked, 20.7 for the tank so far ( filled when we left ) It says I have fuel left for 45 miles. We live almost at sea level, we crossed 2 passes over 8000 feet to get to our destination which was 9600 at our campsite. 5 to 6 miles of 4 low in and out mostly just crawling along...

Big props to Anthony and Livernios. They were able to get the tune(s) to me before the 3 day weekend and now I get to play up in the Sierras all weekend with MORE POWER. I did take it for a spin around the block real quick and even with my camping stuff in the bed it's a very noticeable power...
It's still slower reacting to a power demand than a person setting up what is required prior to it being needed. The transmission no matter how good it is can't see what's going on outside.
