The off road shocks (I think Bilsteins?) and better stock tires... and of course the "Off-Road" sticker (can't forget that one!).

The Off Road and FX4 packages included skid plates for the front differential, transfer case and gas tank and heavy duty shocks. The shocks were valved the same on both packages, but the FX4's shocks were branded Rancho. (both made by Tenneco Automotive which manufactures Rancho and Motorcraft shocks)
