Welcome to the 2025 edition of ‘What Did You Do to Your Ford Tremor Today’!

After more than 10,000 posts and 5 years in @Rock Taxi's original thread, it’s time to kick off a new chapter.

If you’d like to revisit the old thread, check it out here:

Finally got around to installing my Christmas gift to myself…upper and lower stabilizers from Carli. @gmoon, I appreciate the help along the way.

Truck has a little over 60k, approximate 2k on the new 37s. No issue with the stock setup, but with these installed steering feels much better. I understand there are varied opinions out there when comparing this setup to the other options available, but overall I’m happy with this setup.

Happy New Year!

Did you polish the undercarriage while you were down there? Spotless for 60k

Lookin good brother!!! Thanks for ordering your Carli parts with us.
 
Well as much fun as having the factory Tremor steps was as a young guy my parents are struggling more and more to get into the truck when we go out. Ran AMP steps on my 2012 for about 8 years with no issues so decided it was time to go back them. Saw the thread for the new Vision ones and went with those. Thanks to @gmoon for the hookup.

Gotta get used to the lower steps again. Almost fell out the door getting out the first time looking for my original steps.

Unfortunately I have to contact the manufacturer because the lights fault out when set to white. Not sure why yet. Hoping for a simple fix that is either a new controller or just new light strips.
Man that looks badass! Thanks for ordering your AMP Steps with us! If you struggle with tech support just holler and I can try to go up the chain.

Happy new year!
 
Made my own version of under the seat utility holder. I used steel, so I can use magnet holders for versatility.
I wrapped the steel in a thin "Plether" to give a nice look.

Is that an ELEMENT 50 or 100?
 
I wondered how long that giant thread I started would last. It was overwhelmingly long.

Thanks for starting a new one!

Thank you for starting the original thread, it’s certainly the most iconic and popular thread on the site!

I was a bit concerned that the sheer number of posts could eventually impact site performance, so a fresh start for the new year felt like a good solution. Plus, this gives us a great opportunity to compile a ‘Best of 2025’ at the end of the year.”

I just stay on top of it and regularly use Chemical Guys undercarriage spray. My dad taught me at a young age when you keep things clean it’s easier to spot a leak.

Was a fantastic thread, I spent a lot of time in there. 👍
 
Now that they are in, pictures do not do them justice. I made some custom wiring harnesses to run them off of the factory plugs:

One lesson I learned on the first side, loosen ALL of the hardware BEFORE putting them in. The one side of the fog light adjustment bolt was in so tight, the allen head stripped out. I had to slot it to break it free. So....break everything free on the bench, then adjust and tighten when they are in the pocket.
 
Been working on some lighting upgrades myself. Wiring is taking the longer portion of this as I got to plan out the Switch-Pros panel. It's nice to have options for power. Below is a teaser.

Adding some 2x DD SS2 Pro Flush mount SAE Fog under the OEM LED housings.

Looks awesome my friend! I am trying to figure out who is looking through the window :ROFLMAO:
 
It finally happened. I don’t remember who bought theirs off of but at least I can swap out and rebuild this one.

While pulling a GMC, and a Dodge that were stuck and assisting on ice. it stopped and wouldn’t spin in any direction, just get a click click. Regardless of corded and or wireless controllers.
