I love it. Smooth as silk. No grinding noises around corners. Haven't really put it to the test yet though.

Thanks for your advice on the diff and the body panels - made life a lot easier. And I spent a lot less money since I didn't have to rebuild the diff

Default Replace Mirrors on Tremor

Hi
Replace my mirrors with the type with turn single and are heated. Very easy took about 30 minutes. Four screws that holds door panel on (2 on bottom, one behind plastic plate of door handle, and one in side handle where you pull the door close). Lift up on door panel clear the lock. Three screws holds mirror to door and unplug. Reinstall in reverse order. Plug and play no electrical issues.

If anyone interested in the replacement pair there only electric for the glass part to move PM me. Caps are silver (Ford color code WB). will fit 2009-2014.

Aired up the two flat tires and getting ready to take her for a spin, been sitting under the carport for the last month figured it was time to knock the dust off. Soon I'll be starting my build, looking forward to saving the old truck.

BLD, you have it looking great! Now I'm actually watching OBS trucks driving around and watching for those paying attention to detail much like you are! Seems to be a lot of them in NW Louisiana, but not many are maintained like these. Kudos!

^^^That stuff is great. Used the three step process on my truck and it went from pinkish/brown back to red.
