Dear John: We are in the same (bouncy) boat, I believe. I came up from a 2014 Explorer Limited and now have the 2019 Ranger Lariat with FX4. I love everything about the truck except for its annoying street ride, and I am considering many of the same options that you discuss here. If I understand correctly, it seems that the Fox 2.0 solution would be best in terms of stability and smoothness of street ride, although it is clearly more expensive than the other possibilities. I am not sure which way to go because, like you, I am not particularly interested in lift or leveling, although I could accept an inch or so if the system required it to improve the ride. Please keep us posted as to how you address this issue and with what results. Regards, MarcIt sounds like you have a lot of related experience with Ford truck suspensions. The new 2wd F150 I had on loan from my dealer for a couple of days was terrible when compared to my Ranger. I've had sports cars including a C4 and C5 corvette for 50 years so my expectations for good handling are unrealistic for a truck. The Ranger handling on the road isn't bad for its size, weight and target use. I'm getting used to it but a little improvement would be great. for me.
Thanks for your insight.
