Hi everyone,

I honestly don’t post much on here, though I should do so more. I actually logged-in today’s to post a Raptor overhead console to the Marketplace but I don’t have permissions yet (mods? Eh? Haha) so I thought I’d share the current status of my vehicle.

It’s a 2016 Lariat affectionately known as ‘GREYWOLF 1’. I actually had no plans to ever modify it and it remained 100% stock for the first two (2) years I owned it, but then I purchased an off-grid RV and started recognizing a lot of weak points very quickly.



As of today (June 14, ‘26), many of the modifications strongly resemble a Tremor conversion. That was never the goal. I prefer an OEM+ aesthetic, so I did look closely at Ford parts, but it seems great minds think alike (hahaha).

— Tremor rear towbar
— ‘19-‘20 Limited rear bumper corners
— ‘17 Raptor Exhaust
— CR Performance exhaust manifolds
— Cerakote Glacier black entire exhaust including manifolds
— AMS Turbo adapters
— Tremor wheels
— Wheels powder coated: Prismatic Powders Ink black + clear + Cerakote MC2200
— Bilstein 5100 (+1.25” front)
— Tremor rear axle block (+0.75” over stock)
— General Grabber A/Tx
— ‘18+ LED fog light swap
— Mishimoto radiator
— Mishimoto aux. trans. cooler
— Trans cooler Cerakote in Glacier black
— Front grille painted black (Ford code AD) + matte clear
— Black vinyl on chrome of running boards
— 20mm of thermoacoustic insulation in the doors
— 10mm of thermoacoustic insulation on rear wall

Parts purchased but not yet installed:
— Ford Performance Torsen front limited slip
— Ford 3.73 gears (front and rear)
— Lubelocker gaskets (front and rear)
— Black ‘Ford’ badges (waiting on Cerakote)
— Hidden winch mount
— SuperDuty trailer-brake relocation

Future mods:
— hidden winch
— LED lights in grille
— LED roof light
— Raptor overhead console
— Cerakote interior trim

Welcome to the forum.

 

Hey Mike, thanks for the welcome. Ironically, I think I joined back in 2024. To be honest, I post more on the F150 Tremor forum because we have mutually aligned interests, specifically regarding suspension.

Something I’m personally disappointed by is Ford’s lack of marketing the Tremor has +20% more travel than a standard F150. For the general purpose I believe the Tremor is designed/aimed at, this is important. For someone like myself, specifically me (hahaha), I want more suspension travel without going to a long-travel suspension and adding overall vehicle width. I do go through a lot of tight forest service roads, so the standard vehicle width is preferred. Also, my truck is designed as a ‘tow vehicle’ for off-grid campers, and a full Raptor suspension swap would lower my payload capacity.

Anyway, thanks again for the welcome. I actually don’t have many photos of my vehicle because I have a YouTube channel where I’m always posting videos.
