What's new

🛠️ What have you done to your F150 Tremor this week?

Today I installed an Aux/upfitter wiring harnes. My brother made the harness for me( I was informed that a member already makes them, however, found that out a little bit after the fact). Any how, I searched and followed Fozzy’s instructions (the red taped wire set), connected the wires and then there was light, I wrote down what each colored wire relates to its numbered switch for those that desire to do the same in the future. You will see in the photos that there is a set of wires with black tape, they originally had the white tape around them. Color pattern appeared to be identical.
I took my time and checked each wire individually so as to not mix any wires. Took about 30-40 minutes. I think this rig is coming along nicely.

Also built a simple, simple guess I can call it a mid stop. It folds forwards and backward completely flat. I can disconnect the arms with ease. The two rubber strips keeps it from sliding around as it’s sandwiched in between the bed and tailgate. I added some hooks for just because. It weighs about 12lbs and easy to put in and take out. I can still load large, heavy and long loads if need be without a problem.

Installed a folding front license plate and lowered it 3 inches to retain good air flow.

Looks like his one corner tab arrived broken. Mine was the same. Getting a replacement sent out from BAK was pretty easy at least.
Had the exact same issue with this cover on my Gladiator. At least dealing with them was easy, they sent like 5 replacements for each side free.

The plastic corner end caps really could be more robust. It's the only thing I don't really like about the cover.
 
Installed the Cobb intake bracket (mostly because I broke the push clips holding it down)

May I ask a stupid question? What is the purpose of a folding plate holder?

Just wanted to be post #2222
Everyone is killing it in here.
 
Installed my rear Icon 2.5 shocks, now need to do the front coilovers and UCA. My wheels showed up yesterday so the bug has bitten me to get this done.

Nice! I'm having to wait months to get this type of stuff done and it's so hard to keep waiting patiently! Brand new Method wheels and Mickey Thompsons sitting in the garage with new suspension... and I can't touch it 😭

Why can't you touch it?
 
Tire patches count right...300mi run with a big ass self tapper a trucker pointed at 40mi in 😅

Saw two other Tremors in the St Augustine Beach Embassy lot and a nice AMB with a bike on 95 Sat headed home.
 
Oh, just too busy at work, board exam this Friday, life... hahaha. But it sits in there taunting and tempting.

One of these days!
I get it, that is the reason the rears are first to go on. I would love to install the front this coming weekend but don't think I will have the time.
 
It is demonstrated here:
This is very interesting. Who was the first person who thought: "Geez, the truck feels like it's loosing power at speed. Let's put a camera at the intake and see what's happening in there."

Car nerds that bought a truck for truck reasons and can’t leave shit alone 😅

I bet those same folks spend hours digging into wheel and tire package/suspension weight differences compared to the OEM in the hopes of losing some unsprung mass to make a 5000lb lifted offroad truck faster and more nimble. Possibly even losing sleep over whether raptor downpipes fit just to use the trombone mid pipe to make it sound a little better and pick up ~20hp. I need better hobbies.

Sounds like someone has been losing a little sleep themselves, based on the specific nature of your reply! 🙂
