CC - very cool! Youāre gonna spend a lot of time running the beach. My wife is from CC so weāre down periodically for the family thing. TH is great so far, but I like the idea of making my own build too so I think youāre on the right track. Are you going to undercoat? I was thinking about...
Looks great and I think youāre really going to like the OME suspension. Iāve taken the TH through Hidden Falls climbs, rock gardens & steps in Ruidoso and running the National Seashore - the stock OME handled it all surprisingly well. Day to day it smooths out rough FM roads - my commute...
Very Nice! I went 17ā on the wheels as well - so many more options for tires IMO. Did 285/75/17 + 25 and they tuck well at articulation, give me a lot more rubber when airing down and I can deflate the spare slightly and it fits under the truck. Put Westcottās sliders on and I love them. Really...
Agree with your comment about acceleration notes - in this case it is in the 1500-2000 RPM range, high gear(8), cruise control engaged, cruising speeds and an additional load is demanded such as an incline in the road. It manifests as more of a roar/rumble distinctly different from the note...
Hey John 2112 - Iām up the road in the country outside a little place called Holland. Who did your work down in Austin? Iāve actually got Thor Off Road working on the Trailhunter right nowā¦preload collar, bumper, winch. Etc. we were up in Ruidoso last weekend and were talking about putting on...
So I consider droning as a waa-waa-waa low frequency noise similar to that produced by unsynchronized props on a multi-engine aircraft - (I used to be a multi-engine flight instructor for the Navy). This is a loud, constant, low frequency noise that gets louder as the load increases until the...
Just a heads up- I installed the AWE OFG on my Trailhunter. Drone is not going to be an issue but there is a substantial resonance between 1500-2000 RPM in higher gears (8) when under load. AWE asks for a 800-1000 mile break-in to modulate. I completed 2000 miles this weekend and while I agree...
Installed the ENA-3T3 on TH a couple weeks ago. Easy installation, though itās a tight fit behind the display. Took extra care to ensure wiring wasnāt pinched per instructions.Loved the improved sound!
Last week started having issues with panoramic views - rear displayed when forward selected...
The security cover is a good idea if youāre concerned about someone stealing the catalytic converter. I have a āPortā installed cover on my TH that is actually riveted to the frame. I recently installed an AWE Cat-Back exhaust, and not wanting to drill out the rivets, this easily added 3-4 hours...
On Sunday, OTT completed. Noticeable difference in shift points. ECO quicker shifts, NORMAL seemed prolonged in peak power zone. Overall feels more responsive - not going to throw you back in the seat but youāll get the nose up a bit on launch. Too early to tell if there will be any improvements...
Hey Zach - still waiting on parts to get in but the upgrade includes Westcott Preload kit. Iāve gone ahead and re-pinned the liner up front and did the ARK Crash Bracket Delete to prep. Iāll let you know once everything is in place but Iām hoping to avoid rub issues.
I was surprised that my TH had 18ā wheels given its purpose was āoverlandingā over potentially rough terrain where additional sidewall is desired. I would have preferred a 17ā wheel for the additional rubber and much better selection of tires. Upgraded tires to 285/70/R18 and keeping stock rims...
