Wow ! You just enlightened Me. I thought the shudder and vibration was coming from my factory roof rack not the tranmission. I even beefed up the the small grommets to larger ones after reading a thread on roof rack vibration. Great to know the tranmission replacement will fix it.
I'll keep you...
I really didn't notice any weird up shifts. When I would come to a redlight or stop sign the tranmission sometimes kick down alittle abruptly, but as I was new to the truck I thought it might be was normal.
Other than this recall, the truck has absolutely exceeded my expectations on...
After a couple of visits to the dealership when "Hybrid System Malfunction visit your dealer" popped up on my dash, it looks like I hit the trifecta. Transmission assembly, torque converter and hybrid motor all need to be replaced on my 4 week old 1200 mile Trailhunter. And the cherry on top is...
congratulations on the new ride. I picked up my Trailhunter a couple of weeks ago. Had the same problem with the roof rack vibration. I ended up changing the three rubber grommets to larger ones, it helped alot to cut down the vibration. Other than the roof rack the truck has been fantastic...
My 2 week old Trailhunter. I think Toyota did a fantastic job on the new Tacoma. Silver seems to always be on the top of my list when I'm buying a new vehicle.

Please let me know when you get the bed decals on line, I definitely want to purchase a set.
Kind Regards
Fantastic build. One of the best looking TRD Pro's I've seen. Do you mind me asking if there is any wind buffing with the roof rack? I currently have the Toyota OEM on my Trailhunter and getting a bad vibration between 65 to 75 mph, thinking about replacing it. Also do you sell the black decals...
Thank you. I stopped in my local Toyota dealer to see when the 4Runner TRD Pro's would be coming in and they showed me the silver Tacoma Trailhunter. One test drive and I bought it.
They do make the matt black, it was designed for the trailhunter but can go on any model. Attached is the part number. I just had it installed on my Tacoma.
I had my dealer install body side molding on my trailhunter. The first installed they had the molding upside down. After the redo it's slightly higher on one side. I believe I would of had better results doing it myself.
When ordering I learned the matt black was designed specifically for the...
