Lead Foot Tremors

Hey Captain Leadfoot. I have the same cover on my Tremor. What is the trick to closing the tailgate with the cover locked down?
If you pull off this plastic cover (just pull up on the little tab with a screwdriver) than slide out the gasket and put it in upside down. Doesn’t make a perfect seal but not to bad. I stuffed some thin rubber seal in the gap to take up a bit of the space but still can close tailgate. We just had a big flash flood rainstorm at work and only a very small amount of water got in.

Figured I’d hop in… last 2018 Lariat was totaled in January/February. Upgraded to a 2021 Lead Foot Tremor - 402A. Have added the following so far: stubby antenna, 20% ceramic window tint, husky wheel well liners, husky all weather floor mats with custom Tremor emblem, A Pillar guard protective wrap, matte screen protector, Sentry CT hard rolling tonneau cover, BuiltRight Industries Bedside Rack System (holding rotopax gas tank, shovel, bubba recovery rope, axe, CO2 tank etc), and recently Diode Dynamics ditch lights. Need a 2.5 inch level next.
I'd like to know about the Diode Dynamic ditch lights. Can you share some installed pics, how do you like them, how was the install?

Thanks

Currently in Hawaii for business, so don’t have installed photos to share… installed it the night before I left. Was a super easy install (I’m not a wiring guy) just tightened onto mounts and pulled back rubber to run wire into hood/engine bay and bought some small zip ties to keep it neat and in place. Bought the diode dynamics wire kit (OEM Auxiliary Switch Dual-Output 4-Pin Wiring Harness SKU: DD4114) to mount direct to the factory tremor upfitter switch wiring right by the battery.

Love the SSC2s I got, wanted a smaller low profile ditch light. Mine are the combo light with flood and throw.

Cool, I’ll be looking into doing soon, I’ll look for pics when you post em, thanks.
 
I was just curious if anybody knows how many 2021 F-150 Tremors were built in the LeadFoot color? I tried to find the info but couldn't. I know I am only 1 of 2 in Honolulu Hawaii that I know of unless somebody shipped in. I have not seen the other one but friend of mine at dealership said he was pretty sure they delivered just 1 more after mine back in September about a month or so later. I was more curious knowing they do not offer this color for Tremor in 2022.
 
Just one that I am certain of. 😌
 
Got mine on Sept. 25. So far added tint, wind deflectors, rubber mats and leveled. Up next clear bra and tonneau coverView attachment 441
The deflectors look like a good fit. What brand are they? Lead foot is such a good looking color. I think this is the 2nd time Ford killed it off.
 
They had lead foot available in 2016 and got rid of it in 2018 the first time? I had planned on buying a Lariat Special Edition package, but ended up buying an Expedition.

They look like slim fit in channel avs brand I also really like the look of these but most don’t give them a good review.

I've seen lots of complaints on in channel styles triggering the window back down. I was hoping they were the stick on type. I was looking at the AVS color matched Ventvisor series. They don't fit as flush, but I'm pretty sure they are tape on.

Says they don’t fit our trucks. I just put some slim fit stick on ones and I can’t decide if I like them enough to leave em on.

I just looked them up and it says they do fit. If I decide to buy, I'll call them to be sure first.

They appear to come down a little more than yours do.

Can you please post a few pics of the Diode ditch lights? I’m looking to order this weekend and it’s between RC and these, thanks.
 
No way I’m letting this leadfoot thread die…had a bbq to attend today and instead of taking the 5 minute dirt road short cut I opted for the 2 hour scenic route this was supposed to be a really fantastic picture but the mosquito population had other plans.
