Woolys 2022 Iron Sky Build

wools64 · Oct 5, 2021

Currently my truck has a build date of 10/11 but we will see. Either way I have purchased a few items to immediately add to the truck upon my possession

I am calling it Ironsky at this point and will likely stick with that truck name. It is derived from a few things, First off my truck is Carbonized Gray. Secondly I have this strange affinity to the song Ironsky by Paolo Nutini (if you have never heard it I suggest a listen – has cool insert from “The Great Dictator” movie with Charlie Chaplin as I am a huge movie buff) Anyway I digress. Lastly I grew up in a small mountain valley in Idaho where regular summer and fall evening showers rolled through with a gray sky, thunder and lightning. It’s one of my fondest memories from growing up.

All of that right in the middle of getting married in a few days. I highyl recommend Apollo and Nick.

Secondly Tx Tremor as his truck inspired a lot of what I decided to do. So just a little bump on that build as its a bad ass truck

Tx-Tremor-6.7's Carbonized Gray Blackout Build

My truck build is almost done, so I wanted to get the current items posted while I have time this weekend. One of my main goals was to make the truck very comfortable on the highway when towing my 7000 lb Travel Trailer. I will do some very mild off road driving, but nothing too crazy in an...

Gotta say I am impressed with your organization and the way you have gone about things. I am OCD, and it seems a lot of Tremor owners are as well. Good luck with your build, its actually a lot of fun.

Thanks I do appreciate that I would definitely say there is some OCD going on for sure.

Joe_Lee · Oct 5, 2021

Sounds like a great plan

wools64 · Oct 8, 2021

These showed up today. Nittos appear close as well.

wools64 · Oct 9, 2021

Good day today. A lot of goodies arrived. Shocks, front end level kit and associated parts, front steering stabilizer, as well as adjustable track bar and now my window sticker is available for view.

wools64 · Oct 11, 2021

Picture of Items that have arrived just waiting on the Truck and Tires. Tires show arrival Wednesday. Didnt take a pic of the 2.5 coil leveling kit. Left it in the box in the Garage.

wools64 · Oct 12, 2021

Nitto's showed up today. (37x12.5R18) Now I have everything I initially ordered to install once the truck arrives.

The Duratracs are superior to the Ridge Grapplers and have a 50k mile warranty.

I've had both, and I agree, in equal sizes the Duratracs are better. Unfortunately, GY doesn't make larger sizes.

Disagree. Had both as well as K02's, Toyo (though the same company) and others. Nittos best tire Iever had.

wools64 · Oct 16, 2021

Hello Fellow Tremor Owners, Forum Fiends and Those with Tremors on order or thinking about ordering.

It is time for an update on my order and build. Its been 2 months and 3200 miles (about 1160 on the drive home).

First let me say I have had zero issues so far (knock on wood) and am completely in love (if you can be with an inanimate thing)

What I have done so far on my build.

Installed SmartLiner MaxLiner all weather mats

The first big thing I did at 1636 Miles

Installed Ready LIFT 2.5" Coil Spring Front Lift Kit. This took my rake from over 3 inches front to rear to 1/4 inch different
Installed the 4 Icon 2.0 Shocks
Installed Icon adjustable track bar (btw this was such a good thing to add on)
Installed Icon Dual Opposing Steering Stabilizer ( btw highly recommend all of the float after these upgrades dissappeard)

At the same time we pulled the stock wheels and tires and I had already had the replacements pre-mounted my replacements.
Installed the 4 Fuel Offroad D673 Blitz, 18x9 ( +20 Offset ) with 4 Nitto Tire, Ridge Grappler, 37x12.50R18LT Tires.

Next at 1678 Miles had the windows tinted with Ceramic Tint 35% on the drive and passenger door fronts. 20% on the back window and two rear seat windows. Windshield done with 70% The main purpose of all of these were the UV and Heat Protection

At 1742 Miles I had a Bullet Liner bed line done. $450 dollars (plus tax) out the door and I have to say this stuff I love (highly recommed)

Last but not least at 2800 Miles I had the following paint done to the truck

Big Chrome Piece on Grill painted body color Left the 3 brushed alum look bars stock
Front Tow Hooks pulled and replaced with Ford Black ones (still have the chrome ones, trying to decide what to do with them)
The front Ford Badge is Carbonized Gray and Black. The rings and Ford are Carbonized Gray, Oval itself is Black. As a side note the one in the rear is exactly reverse of that. Why you ask? Well its against the carbonized Gray of the body so the rings (especially the outer one) needed to be back resting against the body to pop.

I replaced the window trim on the top of all 4 doors with black OEM parts to get rid of the chrome strips
Ordered back Mirror caps and then had them painted body color
Had the two side vents painted body color on the F350 and the Outer Ridge. left the center black and the Platinum bad stock (see pics)
Had the chrome edge of the power steps wrapped black.
Left the Powerstroke and 6.7 stock
Replaced the Tremor Sticker with one from Signville
All 4 door handles painted body color
Rear Platinum Applique painted body color with the Platinum and Superduty left brushed aluminum look.

The overall idea was to replace all shiny chrome from the body but leave enough of the brushed look to tie into the wheels with the touch of chrome in them.

I should add the entire front clip (aka nose, lights, etc) have all been clear bra'd as well as the mirror caps, the door handle behinds, the door edges and the step ins.

left to do:

I still need to do the Forscan things I want to but that one scared me a bit. I might need to hire an expert to help me (contact me if you are good with this one and are willing to help me - Willing to compensate you for this)
Install Baja Design 2020+ Ford Super Duty Dual Fog Pocket Kit SAE Amber / Sport White / Plug N' Play / Upfitter as well as the
Baja Design Squadron Sport Flush Mount LED Cube (rear bumber install) Amber Lens

Buy and install Access Bed Cover

Factory Exhaust painted Flat Black or back end piping replaced with a banks 4"

Factory rear cab Light painted Nite-Shades

Anyway, check out all my pics and hope you enjoy. I took these today on top of a hill along the edge of Nebo Loop in Central Utah
