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

[TwistedADV]

Got the Husky Liners Wheel Well Guards installed and posted the video on the ol' Youtubes.

Got rid of the OEM Antenna and replaced with Rydonair short antenna ... No degredation in radio signal strength and looks much better. The OEM always looked like it was going to snap right off when driving down the highway.

Yeah. I was dreading going into the dealer. I just didn’t want to hassle with them over the repairs it needs. So far the dealer I’m using is following through and doing a great job with the repairs done under warranty. I’m waiting for the new seat covers to arrive at the moment.

Also it helps that I turn wrenches for a living and was able to explain exactly what is happening and what it needs.

That's awesome you're having a good experience!

Ordered some parts: AFE Momentum GT intake and the MBRP carbon fiber tip, dual exhaust.

Now I wait...

Let me know how you feel about the intake! Did you get the oiled or dry?

Have the AFE Momentum GT on my 5.0 along with Corsa Extreme exhaust. It sounds incredible, albeit a little loud for some... My daughter says it's like having a Dark Horse Mustang truck... She's got that right. CAI filter is dry as I live it FL most of the year. Ordered an oiled filter for when it's in Montana, where I'll actually have an opportunity to encounter dusty conditions. AFE: SUPER customer service.

Slapped on this little gem

I bought some lights and saw if the color matches.

It does.

I tried buying orange square tow hooks from Ford and kept getting refunded due to them being on back order. So I ended up painting the front tow hooks. Saved about $150 bucks and I think they look better than the ones from Ford. I Used Electric Spice H8 from touch up paint direct.

Honestly the smarter move. Mine arrived with a good chip in it just from shipping and have since gotten a few. The factory paint doesn’t hold up that well

Just a question after looking at your modular bumper, does your truck have front crash bars and if so what do they look like? For the regular bumper they hang down and would be visible if used with the modular bumper.

Mocked them up. Look good. Wiring next.

Yes the crash bars are still there. They are behind the “wings” and you cannot see them in plain sight. Here’s a pic of them without the bumper.

Hey, not sure how I missed your post. Ordered the dry. It's taking awhile to get in. Exhaust will be ready sooner.

Installed raptor lights today. Man, I have a few things I've done since buying it in May.

 

[Cblaxx19]

I painted the front brake calipers in electric spice H8.

These raptor R wheels are pretty closed so it’s really subtle but I like it. Now to do the rears. But they will be even more subtle since the calipers are smaller.

What size is your wheel spacer? Do you need it for some clearance with your setup? I like those raptor wheels too. Can you share a pic of the whole truck with those wheels please. Thanks.

I believe it’s a 10mm spacer. The billet ucas stick way out so I was rubbing them. This isn’t an issue with the tubular arms from what I’ve read.

Ten4. Those painted calipers are a very nice subtle accent with those wheels. Great work.
