  1. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    You for some reason want to make this a debate. It’s not a debate, that’s my point it’s just development engineering. I have zero idea as to why Toyota has done what they did, they yes think it’s acceptable clearly. In a modern vehicle program it’s subpar that’s all. As far as reviewers...

  4. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    Let me summarize this for you. This ride quality, regardless of it's category of capability is not acceptable. You can get in a Ford Raptor (mid of full size), or a ZR2 (mid or full size) and the NVH is far superior - it's not an opinion it's fact and its engineering design. They did a bad job...
  5. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    Please don’t take offense, it’s not that I’m expecting too much it’s simply an engineering observation and Toyota didn’t do a critical analysis at the tune of this aspect. This doesn’t mean that the overall function, and capability of the suspension is bad, by no means - isolation is a different...
  6. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    I can understand your position and opinion on my criticality. It's just a very common specification each OEM works to tune to through development. Having a lot of experience in newer vehicles from several OEM's - this is unfortunately a failure from my perspective, and if this were a Ford or GM...
  7. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    I will adjust them to 2 tomorrow. Thanks for your input.
  8. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    Yes it's inability to not translate all of that chatter into the cabin and steering wheel in a brand new program is unheard of.
  9. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    This is valuable information, much appreciated. I will set all the shocks to 2 and see how it rides. Thank you!
  10. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    The sad thing is it could've been addressed and prevented.
  11. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    Thanks for the feedback on the Trail Hunter. It's not just a Pro thing it's a chassis thing.
  12. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    Hey There I'm running it in the softest setting. That's how it arrived and I verified all 4 shocks. I will adjust them to number 2 and see what happens, I can't imagine it will help any, but since you're running number 3 I will give it a shot. Well I bought it to work and play, so it's too late...
  13. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    I'm in the automotive industry and I've worked for many years for Ford as an engineer. This thing has feedback even on smooth roads, of course it's really busy on crappy roads. It's not a suspension thing, it's what Toyota is not doing on isolation of the suspension movements that end up...
  14. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    Thank you for your feedback! That leads me to believe It certainly is the design then. Where as GM and Ford do a far better job of isolating the cabin and steering wheel than Toyota. It comes down to body mount dampers and isolators. It would never pass those organizations NVH (noise vibration...
  15. TRD Pro - Not So Pro Ride Quality!!!

    Looking for insight / validation / others experience... My new TRD Pro has what I would consider poor ride quality. There is little isolation of the road to the cabin/chassis, and of course the steering wheel. My 24 Corvette Z06 has better isolation than this 4Runner. Every little bump...
  16. Toyo AT3 285/70/17 Load C + Method 703 +35mm + Peak Suspension 1.25" front level lift

    How does it drive. I have to imagine the on road ride suffered, but the off road will certainly improve.
  17. Removing resonator or replacing muffler

    Chris send me a PM. Maybe we could do a swap if you're close to me. I have a 25 TRD Pro, they have no resonator.
