What's new

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

Installed the Desert Does It FRONT MULTI MOUNT PANEL for the seat front. I used their right angle bracket as well. My whole intent was for a gun holster solution for a truck pistol. This one has the long arms on it.

Holster is just a Blackhawk mounted at an angle. Draw is very easy and what I desired.

Don’t notice at all getting in, out or driving and really a nice solution. Product is quality.

Adds some pannel to attach a tire knocker club for easy access.

Do you have part numbers for what you ordered? I couldn't find that set up on their website.
 
Reluctantly added the new Tremor logo's and replaced Tailgate logo..... Def like them better than the original, but will see if they stay.

Finally got around to finishing up the front lights by adding two spots in the middle up top.

Changed my Oil. Currently at 26k miles. I change it every 5k miles give or take few hundred miles. AMSOIL and OEM Oil Filter. I used the recommended 5W-30 about 6 quarts. Read somewhere that 0W-30 is a better Oil to use over the recommended 5W-30? I understand the Temperature tolerances and for me living where I live, this wouldn't really matter for me. It's just a tad cheaper for the 0W-30 for some reason where I pick up the AMSOIL from so am thinking about it in the future if there aren't any issues. Anyone got opinions on this? Also, the Drain Plug. I know there are aftermarket Drain plugs out there. I was just looking at my OEM plug with that rubber washer. Thinking after a while that washer may wear down? No leaks or issues so far. I know the Acura / Honda's use that crush washer. Does anyone replace their Oil Drain plugs on the Ford's after a while?

Stick with the oil weight that’s recommended.
 
Been working up my 93 tune with Boost King Tuning. Also bought his E85 kit. Once that is in stalled, I will have him make me an E40 tune. Target is around 500 whp, maybe a little less.
 
Thanks for reply, I see I missed that in your signature, ha. Do you know what your total lift in front was? Happy with the ride?
Set at factory height from Icon is suppose to be 2.5" with room to go 3". When I measured I saw roughly a 2.25" front lift from factory setting. The ride has been good, body roll reduced significantly and the wife approved. The stock suspension is too soft IMO. My E rated tires did add some harshness to the ride but that was too be expected.

I have a gen 1 ecoboost that has run on Amsoil SS 0w-40 and the oil analysis look much better than the 5w-30. It likes the thicker oil but I think the mfgs all are trying to skimp on oil weight to eeek out fuel economy. My wife’s BMW I run on 0w-40 and it runs great. I would not go thinner. The fuel dilution in the oil on these newer ecoboost is better than that Gen 1 though. When the warranty ends on my Tremor I’ll go to 0w-40. No matter what oil you’re running I would never go more than 5k miles. These Engines are dirty, the best protection you can have is to not exceed 5k mi on synthetic, 3k on conventional.

My gen 1 fx4 is still running and sounding great after 10 years and 175k miles (towed a lot & long distance). Just my opinion and like @ssholes, everyone has one.

Was going to move my bag airlines into the pro power panel but broke one of these shitty screws on the back cover. Threw the builtrights on and I’ll deal with the other shit later. Kinda makes me want to rig up a harness to tie a LED strip into the bed lights 🤔
