Plate bulbs for sure
I second guess nothing. That is #9 on the listLet me throw one out that may make everyone else second guess their choice.
#1 rear shocks.

5- tint
6- ppf
7- lighted cup holders
8- air bags
9- maybe rear shocks
Having done a few trails and noticed some serious hop, I’m curious what you went with?Let me throw one out that may make everyone else second guess their choice.

Literally anything is a massive improvement. I've had several but going from stock to (I think the Billstein 5160s were first) were absolutely the most noticeable improvement. Fox 2.5s were good but for weight and towing I went with the heavy valving 5165. I did try a couple of other 2.0s but they weren't worth mentioning.Crazy, my 22 and I believe 21's all came w/ Heated steering wheels. Ford took that away because of sourcing?
My previous F150, I put on Fox in the rear. Thought Tremors came with better rear shocks? maybe not. What are the go to for just changing the rear shocks?

My next (and hopefully last) set is still in development.
Lol, that would be a "worst use for best shocks" unfortunately nothing about my setup lends itself to that quality or function.ADS?
They can build it for whatever you want it for though, granted it would be expensive. I'm assuming your talking your Elkas with the Eibach springs, speaking from the utv side of things Elkas rock but their springs tend to be soft when compared to other companies at the same weight. Never really understood that.Lol, that would be a "worst use for best shocks" unfortunately nothing about my setup lends itself to that quality or function.
Cost wise the Eibachs are a huge improvement, but the Bilstein 5160 works well, or if like @Yeti you tend to carry around 600lbs or so in the bed the Bilstein 5165 he used works well, for those of you wanting to keep close to stock length but don't carry as much weight they now have them in a lighter setup same length. I have posted them in the rear shocks. Just pay attention to the compression rate to get the right ones, I honestly think they made the lighter ones after I talked to one of their engineers for about an 1 hour to find out if they thought the one they had would work or not and explained the reason we were looking into them.Having done a few trails and noticed some serious hop, I’m curious what you went with?
Thanks, I will look into that. I have noticed the stock ones ride better with some weight back there. I tend to move 100-600lbs with work stuff. I will check out the 5160 or 5165s. possibly if I change them after the winter. I didn't hate the fox I had on my 2014 F150 FX4, also better than stock. Only thing I noticed was around the really cold winter months they did not hold up the best ( not sure if it was imagination at the time )Literally anything is a massive improvement.

My favorite mod so far has to be the all black raptor wheel caps. They make the OEM wheels pop!What's the one mod that you can't live without?
If you can only mod ONE thing on your truck, what is it? Why?
Post pics if applicable!
GO!
Always wondered about those. Do they wiggle or move at all, or are they totally rigidly attached? They look cool but I worry about a safety issue if they have any wiggleBakx4s, Tux Mats and these brake, gas pedal covers.
No wiggle at all, for the brake pedal you remove the original rubber pad, gas this just goes over top.Always wondered about those. Do they wiggle or move at all, or are they totally rigidly attached? They look cool but I worry about a safety issue if they have any wiggle
Correction just started to get sloppy after about a week or so. Going to return!No wiggle at all, for the brake pedal you remove the original rubber pad, gas this just goes over top.
*Crying in 3.5EB*Mine would be installing a winch in the large space behind the front bumper, with the 5.0 there’s plenty of room behind the bumper.
