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

[MustardT1ger]

I'm sure if I spun the collars up to max settings it'll probably be near or at level. I left roughly 2" rake in my stance because I'm hauling weight a lot of the time.

 

[Moe7]

I hear so many conflicts about will this or will it not level the Tremor. Some say it's too short, other say it's fine. What was your experience?

From what I gathered, you'll have about an inch rake at full preload. It's not the best setup if you're after a pure level.

Mine was 1/2 inch out of the box without any settling, I took some preload out cause I didn't care about being level and still carry weight in the bed often enough.

Heading to the rockies later this summer. I use the Tremor to tow so the CVF intercooler and pipes were a must have for me.

CVF provides zero instructions and relies on influencers. Weak. The cooler and pipes themselves seem quality though.

I was able to get everything off including the shutter assembly without removing the bumper (thank god).

How do you like the new Intercooler? Notice a difference? Also How did you get the shutter off without removing the bumper?

Maybe this is a ridiculous question but....

What if install the Eibach Pro Truck 2R, set to "no lift' but then use a ready lift spacer (or similar) on top? This moves the whole assembly down, instead of stretching the spring and strut out, and retain the full range of motion.... Again could be dumb idea. I'm not well versed in the physics of shock and spring travel. Makes sense in my head tho.

This is my shock and spring bucket currently. I don't know what I'm looking at or if there's a spacer because this is the only Tremor I've inspected. But it definitely sits more level than the photos Ive seen of stock tremors without a doubt.

Can anyone identify what I've got here?

Not that ridiculous, others have had the same thought:

Honest Eibach Review Needed

Has anybody considered lowest setting on these Eibach’s with a spacer on top? I’m new to the forum & community. I traded my Bronco in for a 2022 F-150 Tremor a couple of weeks back and drove it directly from the dealership to my local truck shop for a 2” Readlift and 35s, among other day 1...

You definitely have some type of spacer already, as others have confirmed. My top hats were tucked more into the shock tower from the factory.

Not McGards but so far so good

How have they held up? Looking at these vs gorillas vs mcgards...These seem to look more factory that the other two.

Good thread thanks. Makes me. Not want them after all. Search continues.

if I was searching now I'd hold out to see the specs and price point for the 2.5s.

Can someone say Bilstein 8112’s and 8100’s.

Everything I read sounds like EVERY aftermarket shock is "too firm" with the exception of the Fox and then people say they're too soft.

 

[deepblack]

I got tunes for my ‘24 5.0. Livernois and Oz. The Livernois is loaded now and I’ll switch to the oz in a week or so.

The Bilstein’s that I mentioned are supposed to be a different animal. Here’s a video that might give you some perspective.

Also Apollo Churchill who’s a member on here has the 8112’s installed so he could give you some perspective on the ride quality.

"When setup right these ride smoother than my brain" . Sold. @ApolloChurchill what say you? Show me where to buy, and let's see your stance. These look amazing.

You can save a considerable amount of cash and get the non-adjustable rear shocks instead.
Also the DSA rear shocks will require different / non OEM TREMOR wheels so that’s another expense that has to be addressed.
