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

[Fozzy]

Got my rack on top of the bed rack and picked up the new Traxxas TRX4 F150.

 

[claviska]

Nothing crazy, but I installed wheel well liners, mud flaps, B&W Tow and Stow, valve stem caps, and reorganized the back seat storage to fit a portable air compressor, kinetic rope, tire repair kit, and some other goodies. I was hoping to get the dash cam installed this weekend, but we got a foot of snow yesterday and I doubt I’ll get around to it today.

Next up is a tonneau cover. I’m thinking of going with the BAKFlip. My 2011 F-150 has a Gator and it doesn't seal as well as I’d like it to.

Amazon made me buy it... they offered same day delivery. This is a very "GOOD" quality center console FULL upper shelf tray. Fits PERFECT in my 23' Tremor.

Thanks !! I think they are a +20

Just picked mine up a week ago. Bed liner, 3M coating, and WT floor liners is all I have done. So far love this truck.

 

[rinkratrob]

Husky wheel well liners ordered ($40 cheaper than OE liners at Ford Parts), and will get some OE mud flaps. I am open to suggestions on the latter. Thanks everyone, and this thread alone is worth a ton for a new owner! - Rob

Well had the tremor a week, only 250 miles on it, but Yes ! She is a keeper, now its time to start my build. I had the Line X sprayed in today, I went to my local reputable LineX dealer and spent an hour going over everything, the process, from prep, to removal of all screws, to the lines and most importantly, make sure they tape well to prevent ANY over spray there are some horror stories out there. Kudo's to me dealer , they had there best guy do it, and had it all day. Sure you will have some say it should only take 2 -3 hours, I would rather they take their time and dont rush anything. When you work hard for a nice truck, dont skimp on the bedliner, have it done and done right.

Here are a few things I learned over the years to ensure that your dealer does a great job:

1) Make sure they unscrew ALL screws to the bed, hangers, brackets, etc.. then reattach everything as original.
2) Bottom end of bed and bottom of tailgate ~ (most lineX dealers will stop at both the end of you truck bed and tailgate. At the bottom end of truck bed have them spray as far down as they can. (this serves 2 purposes, protects and when you stand at the rear of your truck and look at the space between the tailgate and bumper , it is a nice black). Also have the spray as fare down on the bottom of the tailgate as well. (with the new 23's they could only go about half way down on the bottom).
3) Overspray Inspection ~ upon pick up look thoroughly at spray lines and for any over spray, inside tailgate latches, side of truck, the spray line on the front top of bed near rear window, etc. Also make sure they dont spray the top of your spare tire though the gap, a proper taping will ensure this doesn't happen. A great lineX dealer will be methodical about the prep work and taping.
4) inspect ALL screws on bed, attachments and tailgate screws, etc. Make sure all bed screws are flush with washers, to ensure they didnt put in crooked or strip them. Also check tailgate screw to ensure they are all in place.
5) inspect bottom of tailgate for all screws, grommets and wires have no kinks and in place.
6) Inspect entire tailgate to ensure proper operation up and down , and also check for even gaps.
7) Final inspection walk around of your truck to ensure no new scratches, dings or otherwise.

Finally pulled the trigger on the Procomp 2.5" leveling kit. FYSA, it works fine for the 2023 Tremor. Here are some before and after pics for your reference. Its also parked on a slanted driveway sooo...Dealer was asking for $1300 to install/align. 4WP did it for less than half the price.

What is everyone using for stubby antenna, was looking at the Rydonair or the Ronin.

The dealer would pop the tire off and patch from the inside for free, it's covered under warranty, reason I know is they had to do the same to mine as I took picked up a 3" deck screw about a 1/4 mile from the dealer, drove it straight there just before I lost too much air pressure and figured they'd charge $20 but they said it was covered under warranty and even stated they would have replaced the tire had it not been repairable.

Any signal loss that you can notice? Thanks.

I've got the Ronin. I never use AM/FM radio, so I'm not sure how much of a signal loss there is. I do have the stock antenna under the seat just in case.
