(n)😲 Wow, so sorry to hear this. Thanks for posting about your experience. While my previous interactions have been good, this is really bad to hear. I appreciate you posting it adjacent to my old recommendation so people can see that not all have had good experiences. Ugh.

Not at all! It's all helpful and genuinely appreciated. (y)

Yeah, I've got airbags and will probably rely on those when it is on. It is pretty light. Might not need to use them. The tire weight isn't quite 1:1 since it is already in the rear, but there is a slight difference for me between the weight of a 33" stock size and my 35". Thanks for the info...

I've been watching this closely after waiting to find the right solution to carry a spare 35". The Trail Swing does look like the better option for me too. Two questions...which can wait until you have more experience with it if you choose. 1. Do you think you will need to beef up your rear...

It depends on what you want to do with the truck. For example, I wouldn't put running boards on it if you plan to do any significant offroading with it. The rock sliders on the Trailhunter are frame mounted and can take the weight of the truck when needed on rocky trails. There are some...

A quick update. I'll add pics of the mods down the road. Some other pics just for fun are below. I added the front lower arm skids so both ends of those new Dobinson trailing arms are protected now. I purchased a steel gas tank skid from Cali Raised, but it came in a day late and I didn't have...

Yes. I use the built in Trailhunter compressor and inflate them using a Schrader valve tucked into the compartment in the right side of the bed. You can get a dedicated compressor, but I didn't see the need for obvious reasons. Super easy and quick. It was my first intro to airbags too!

I added the Dobinson 822 coils on the front of my 2024 Trailhunter after adding the ARB Zenith winch bumper and accessories. I did this accommodate the extra weight because it felt off with the added weight. I don' t often carry much weight in my bed, so I chose to install the AirLift 5000. I...

OK. Happy to chat. Maybe message me so we don't hijack this thread? LMK what questions you have.

Nice write up. Thanks! Hope to see you out there someday. Tight lines.

Could we get some pics and additional details of the mounting and roller system underneath? Also, how far beyond the tailgate do the platforms extend on a Tacoma long bed? Finally, what are the internal dimensions of the platforms? I'm wondering what size bins will fit between the raised edges...

Count me in!

Edit: I went through the car wash today and FINALLY noticed the speaker icon on the main display near the top. One press silenced all alarms! I have to wonder if the update I got at the dealer last week added that. I suspect it was there all along though.

Improve the design of the AUX switches. I'm average height at 5'9" and from my seat position I cannot see the labels on the bottom rows without contorting my body while driving. Just as bad is that I can't see the darn indicator lights telling me what is and is not on because they are located...

Update on rusty coils... I reached out to Dobinsons and they were very responsive. They are shipping me a replacement set and contributing significantly to the labor cost. I'm happy with the way they responded. Now let's hope the new coils have a better finish on them! As a related aside, my...

I'll second @nurp42 . I sold my Yakima from my previous setup/truck and went with the same as nurp42.

I bought my Trailhunter new in October 2024. In August 2025 I replaced the front coils with Dobinsons to accommodate the additional weight of a new bumper and winch. Three pics below show 1) original stock coil (left) compared with new Dobinsons coil (right) at time of installation in August...

Really nice to see. Watching to see how your flex tests and trimming go. I thought I was set with my 35's, but darn those look good and that extra inch of clearance couldn't hurt off road. Thanks for sharing your experience! :like:
