TrailHunter Shake & Vibrations

[JeffG]

Since new in October 24, 2024 I have had a vibration & pulse felt though out my TH that I’ve ignored. Happens most notably from 30-45 MPH. I hate driving it long distances and only have 1.400 mile. Finally took it to the dealership (Was going to wait first oil change)
Here’s what I was told. Yes the service manager can feel and hear it. Claims there are so few TH with this suspension that’s it’s just suspension & frame harmonics after hitting any small bump that stops & starts with each bump!
Says it can’t be fixed!
Any other TH owners have this issue.

@tacorancher .....is this consistent to what you were describing?

Take it to a reputable 3rd party wheel and tire shop and check your tires/wheels.

I’d also avoid that dealership again, their statement seems false.

Ive got about 4k miles on my TH, no speed related vibrations/harmonics or otherwise i can report…. What you describe sounds related to a wheel balance/tire deformity issue IMO.

No - my truck shakes when I drive over dirt / gravel roads but I’m coming to realize this is likely just the TH’s stiff springs (my 2022 Pro was much smoother on rough roads) — I’m able to drive my truck on the highway at 100+ MPH with zero vibration or shaking. It feels like a sports car. It’s been smooth at high speeds with multiple wheel and tire configurations.

OP - when does it vibrate? Let us know the exact conditions. Mine does on crappy roads or dirt roads. It vibrates violently on dry rocky trails or gravel roads if I go over 15mph. But not on smooth roads or soft terrain. It’s frustrating as I need to be able to move more quickly on those kinds of roads and trails.

I’d love to drive another TH or ride in one. Anyone in Texas give me a shout.

Anyone driving a Trailhunter over 100mph on a public road is a jerk.
