The sentence 'I trembled with fear' is different from 'the fear of heights makes me tremble'.
Somehow, the use of 'with' after 'trembled' doesn't go with 'of' in the 'fear of heights'.

I would say, "I trembled with fear because of the height of the bridge."
or, "I trembled because of my fear of heights."
