I think the Fx4 is the same as the earlier years "4x4 off road". Which is the shocks and skid plate

The Rancho branded shocks on the FX4 package are similar to RS5000 shocks but with milder valving. The FX4 package also includes a fuel tank and transfer case skidplate which are also available seperately.

If I was ordering my truck again, I would order the skidplate package but not the FX4 package. You would be better off adding Rancho or Bilstein shocks as they are much better than the factory 'Rancho branded' version.
