You'll also want to readjust the headlights if you haven't already.Installed Fox 2.0 leveling kit and am installing 265/70/R18 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT and read somewhere I need to do something to correct the speedometer and for shifting. Any help with this would be appreciated.
Not 100% necessary, but I believe it will also have a negative effect on MPGs if not corrected. You can either adjust tire size with a full tuner or a speedometer calibrator. Both options I looked at used the revolutions/ mile spec to adjust. I ended up just using a full tune. I figured spend a little more get a little more.Installed Fox 2.0 leveling kit and am installing 265/70/R18 Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT and read somewhere I need to do something to correct the speedometer and for shifting.

I would say so, a little Lift and everything goes to hell!Alignment...
Looks sharp. Any chance you could take a pic down the side of the truck? I'm considering something similar....but probably 285/65. Mine's not leveled, but I'm probably going to add Bilstein's or Rancho's all the way around and lift the front slightly at the same time that I get the tires. I have a feeling it will feel like a different truck!updated photo
I would not recommend Rancho... they tend to rust the moment they come out of the box, and they don't ride nice. I've never heard anything good about the ride on Rancho shocks... Go bilstein if you're trying to stay on the more budget side, but I'll echo @Zims4x4 in that the Fox kit rides beautifully.Looks sharp. Any chance you could take a pic down the side of the truck?

How do those tires feel compared to the smaller (stock?) tires?
I've not heard or seen many people here recommend them, but I spoke to a Ranger owner this summer who highly recommended them and preferred them over the Billsteins.I would not recommend Rancho... they tend to rust the moment they come out of the box, and they don't ride nice.

I have the Eibach and am very pleased with them.I've not heard or seen many people here recommend them, but I spoke to a Ranger owner this summer who highly recommended them and preferred them over the Billsteins.
But in the meantime, I just watched a video from an online retailer (Shock Surplus maybe?) who reviewed all of them in depth which made me change my mind to Eibach.
