+1 for aftermarket exhausts being fine on a Tremor. I just installed the Bold Performance one on mine. Everything lines up perfectly. I'm sure MBRP is no different.

The only point where it was close was the shock reservoir, I put some heat shielding material on it.

That was with the Gibson single side exit exhaust, others may not be as close.

I switched out my stock leafs for Tremor leafs and I can say with certainty that there is nothing different underneath that would interfere with an exhaust system.
asking out of curiosity, why the spring swap out? Towing, Load Capacity, other?

Improved ride is the main reason. Combined with the Bilsteins it is much improved over stock FX4.

The Tremor leafs also flex better than the mono leaf.

Thanks because I saw you did 5100’s like I did and I too have the FX4. Are you considering something like the Helwig sway bar?

I'm 100% happy with my current setup and don't think I'll be changing anything.

I don't feel I need the Helwig.

The only thing I might consider is SumoSprings if I ever start towing or hauling regularly.

One last question, did you find them as take offs or ordered? Ok, a follow up Mr President, if you bought oem, happen to have the part number? Thanks

I bought them from a member here on the site who upgraded his entire suspension to OME.

The springs can be bought HERE. They are a vendor on here and Benny can get you a better deal.

And you'll need the U-Bolts as well.

HERE is my Tremor leaf spring swap write-up.

I have a 2022 Tremor without the factory tow hitch. I have the 2 rear tow hooks. I'm wanting the MBRP dual rear exhaust they make but I'm worried that the 2 rear tow hooks will be in the way of the exhaust tips. Does anyone happen to have the MBRP dual rear exhaust and the factory rear tow hooks? MBRP said they weren't sure if it would fit. Any thoughts are welcome.

Got the exhaust on. One thing to note that didn't stand out to me, or my installer, for some reason. BUT, by default, the MBRP 3" single-exit exhaust setup is meant to pair with the STOCK downpipe, NOT a 3" downpipe. Or, at least, a downpipe with a 2.5" out.

My SPD was 3" all the way, so my installer had to cut off a couple of inches and weld on another 3" piece to get it fitting perfectly.

As far as my initial impression - it's loud. Maybe a lot more with the 3" downpipe. But, it seems like there's a fair amount of drone at 70-80mph. :/ Not sure I'm happy with it, but going to give it a few more weeks before I decide.

Running around town, it's fine. Sounds good on acceleration, then quiets out while cruising. It's just the higher RPM speeds that seems to cause it to drone and kind of drown out the nice stereo.

If you're really happy with the MBRP exhaust, something to consider is installing a aftermarket Resonator like a Vibrant Ultra Quiet 3" as close to the cat as possible or anywhere you can fit it before the muffler. It Should tone things down without restriction.
They make Resonators in 3" for your set-up.
Coming from experience
Good luck!

Did it raise rise height in rear? Or make any issues with drive shaft angle vibrationS?
