Nice, did you go with the adjustable 2.5’s? How’s it feel on the road?New wheels and Tires to go with a Halo 2.5 shock diameter lift!
Wheels: Method MR317 18x9 +18 offset
Tires: Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T 305/70/18 (actual measurement: 35.3"x12.2")
Lift: Stock rear aside from 2.5 Halo shocks and airbags w/ daystar cradles, front coil-overs, shocks, UCA's and there is about 7/8"-1" of threads showing above the adjustment collar
Different strokes and all, but after a ton of research, I feel this is THE way to go for performance as far as tires, size, offset and lift. Coming from a diesel with Carli Pintop suspension and 37" Nitto Ridge Grapplers (multiple sets) that was purpose built for my 30mi round trip on a very rough road, I think this setup on the Tremor handles the rough sh*t with extreme poise. Online pictures do not do the Baja Boss' justice, they are more aggressive looking in person than ridge grapplers, E rated, 3-peak snow rated, and mileage warranty. We'll see how they do this winter, but rockstar setup so far. No rubbing at all (not even plastic trimming) and not so much poke that the rocks hammer the truck, but enough for great looks.
Hope this helps someone who was on the fence about Mickey's (cannot attest to the snow performance yet), size, offset, and what lift to run, like I was.
Last i checked, they didn't offer adjustable shocks, but adjustable ride height/preload if that's what you mean? But i would have opted for them as well as reservoirs. The Halo owner told me reservoirs are coming at some point and i will throw them on when these are shot. The roads and speeds I do eat fox 2.0's for breakfast, so I'm hoping these Halo 2.5's will hold up a little longer until reservoirs are available.Nice, did you go with the adjustable 2.5’s?

Hey man - what is the part number for the rhino cross bars? My Thule’s off a Yukon are too short.I added the Roll N Lock A-Series XT tonneau cover. I went with the "A" series since it's powder coated aluminum and the "XT" adds the T-slotted rails. For our trucks, it's PN: 131A-XT. The install wasn't bad at all and took me about an hour by myself.
I also added some Rhino-Rack Vortex bars that I had to get a feel for what it looks like with a little more flare. I might add a RTT for my kids when they get a little bit older.

I did see on the Gen14 forums a sponsor has a kit to mount the lights like this, but it seemed like they were mounting them higher, and using bigger pods. I still like the stealth look like yours better, but might not be a bad alternative if the grill blocks too much light.Installed the center console divider and the six Diode Dynamics SSC2 Pro pod lights behind the grille. Four white combo beam and two yellow fogs. My son and i made the wiring harness, all six amber backlights together (will go on Aux 1) white lights in Aux 2 and the fogs on Aux 3 is my plan. I hope to get it wired up tomorrow, I'll add some "action" shots when I get them.
I copied an idea I got on this forum for the mounting solution. Used some aluminum sheet I had laying around to fab it up, quite easy to do and seems very sturdy.
I'll see how much the grille blocks the light, I may cut that portion of grille out and move the lights forward a few inches... but I would rather not.
I wish they'd make a raptor version, then we could get a pnp harness for the red marker lights. On my 18 lariat I ran a wire from the license plate lights to a raptor harness to get them power.Installed the Morimoto 3rd LED Brake Light. Like the light, but wish Morimoto had included the constant red lights, when the lights are on. The red only illuminates when you hit the brakes then blacks out. Of course I painted the screws black, hate when you have black mods and they send non black hardware.
Do you have photos of the after been wanting to do this. Also where did you buy the blocks from and did you replace the U Bolts or just add some washers?Too the rear blocks out and put stock stock 4x4 blocks in. Ended up 7/8” lower in the back to get rid of some rake
I really wanted to go with the SSC 3's from Diode and almost did that, but, my better judgment to avoid cutting the grille reigned supreme, and I went with the little guys. I will say, the only light that is noticeably blocked by the grille is from the backlights. When the fogs or white lights are on, they are bright as shit! No shadows, no obvious light loss, I'm sure there is some loss, has to be, but you would need high tech equipment to "see" the loss, very, very bright.

Here are a few shots of the lights in action. Wiring the up sure was easy with the Aux switches, RAD!

Man that smartcap looks good. Planning to sleep/camp inside or just for storage?First time Ford owner here. The Tremor package on the F150 sold me, and I absolutely love it so far.
My last ride was a '16 Ram 1500 Outdoorsman, which I enjoyed.
But this F150's EcoBoost and 10 speed pull my 19' Lund fishing boat far better than my Ram did, and with a much smoother ride. And it looks sharp as hell and is packed full of features.
Mods so far:
– ReadyLIFT front leveling kit for Tremor
– 20% front tint
– RSI Smart Cap Evo
– Line X Bed Liner with BedRug removable classic bed mat
– Gatorback Mudflaps from SharpTruck
– Rear wheel well liners
Looking forward to more.
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing, gonna have to look into doing that myself now.I really wanted to go with the SSC 3's from Diode and almost did that, but, my better judgment to avoid cutting the grille reigned supreme, and I went with the little guys.

Very easy mod, a little nerve wracking, but no really permanence to it.....That's awesome! Thanks for sharing, gonna have to look into doing that myself now.
