You don't, but really helps.

Once you undo the top two bolts, you gotta yank the tube from the filter box. Its in there tight so a good yank(pause for jokes) should do it.
Driver side is easy. Passenger side sucks!

Just finished blacking out my mirror lights and parking lights. Was super quick to do, and matches my exterior a lot better. I have the livernois tune arriving tomorrow as well, super excited. Just in time for a camping trip.

Yeah I had a "fun" time installing my LED high beam bulbs cause of it.

Next time I have to do it, I think I'll remove the entire assembly as it's easier to do than popping that snorkel out. I miss the old chevy S10s/silverados. Two pins, pop the headlamps out.... Boom, change bulbs in like, 10 seconds.

How much do you charge? Come to CA and do my truck. Its dirty as F and the heat is not helping
If you were closer I would. lol I actually love detailing it and usually try to do it a couple times a month. This heat had been brutal this yer and we finally had a morning that was only 82* so it was a perfect time. It was so dirty and still had bugs plastered on the front from our trip so I had to foam it twice.:oops:

How much you ask? ?

Today, I changed oil and filter, rotated tires, installed 20 McGard black lug nuts and 4 Advance Wheel lock black lug nuts, removed 3 of 4 skid plates and power washed the underside of my truck. I'm going to replace all the hardware for the skid plates, so they didn't go back on.

And I ordered a Fumoto valve to go on with the next oil change.

I hit 10k miles today.


That's it. Nothing else. Seats still suck and **** up my back after more than 5 minutes of driving... But hey, transmission hasn't blown up yet so thats something...

Finally joined recently - but have been reading since last year. Ordered my 22 Christmas week of 21 and it arrived April 20 2022.

Best truck i have ever owned - mostly because I got exactly what i wanted, not something off the lot.

Did not do anything today - but what i have done since last year
spent way too much money as everyone says - but i wanted it all
hood decal​
rollbar​
custom decal on rollbar sides​
bumper step​
tailgate and grille decals​
light on the rollbar - not fully wired yet​
what is sitting in the shop awaiting install
switch pro​
dash tray mounting plate​
putco freedom blade - going on the rollbar - not the tailgate​

and now i am perusing posts to see what else i want to do - i guess it never ends

Hi folks, new owner of a 23 XLT Tremor (had it a couple weeks, and I'm really loving it)
thanks to Ford Credit rewards points, I put in a bed mount swing-out storage box, the sling to keep my dog in the back seat, and burned off points and got the first aid kit and roadside assistance kit. I also just finished installing the smoked Ford emblem, front and rear. If I may add, I don't think it would be possible to include more vague instructions, and the front was a royal pain in the back side. (I did find the video somewhere here which showed how easy the back replacement was). While working on the front, I managed to drop only 2 bolts and 1 plastic clip retainer, too!
No pictures of the rear right now, it's too dark out to take a decent one

Installed my Magnaflow Overland exhaust today. Bit of a pain in the ass since I’ve only done exhausts on motorcycles previously and had to go buy deep sockets and a hanger tool, but pretty happy with the end result.

One reason I really like this exhaust is that you can adjust the sound level with parts they include. I left off the NDT resonator and just capped the extension pipe off the muffler for now, so if it gets annoying or my wife starts getting irritated with me I can quiet it further. Sounds good right now though! ?

How do you like it, since you have some time on it?

Considering one, but I am not quite the exhaust installation specialist so I may need to find a friend who is.

-btw, I am in the East Bay too. Near Concord.

installed WeatherTech in channel guards today. Subtle, but I like it. Hoping the wife will allow me to run the windows down more often with them. We shall see.
My wife noticed when i put them in right away. I do roll the windows down a bit now. You will get a little noise when you do.

Hope this drops some wind noise. It is horrendous in these trucks for some unknown reason to me.
