Vibration during initial take off

[Glassco]

JUST bought my Mojito Texas trail yesterday.

I have this vibration during initial take off Like from 0-15 Mph give or take

But once I get above 20 it goes away and drive smooth.

I test drove another Gladiator Texas Trail before I bought this one, I could have sworn the 1st I drove did not have this vibration, or maybe I just didn’t pay enough attention to notice.

Anyone have any idea what this is? Normal , not normal? I only have about 70 Miles on the ODO currently.

Make sure you're not feeling the same thing when slowing down.

It could just be your mud tires.

I do feel it when slowing down as well.
I will confirm tonight on my way home, pretty sure it does it when slowing down as well, when it gets close to a stop

Not saying this is the problem, but make sure you are at the tire pressure on the inside door data label and not the over inflation "shipping pressure" that is like 45 PSI plus when it leaves the factory. That is sometimes missed on the PDI before delivery.

Unless just horrendous, I would wait until you get like 500 miles or so on the tires before going in. While factory tires are suppose to be the pick of the litter from the tire makers, sometimes even new tires take a few miles to settle and wear in. Especially if they been sitting for awhile during transport.

Check the drive shaft.

Even my AT3W's at this point have an ever so slight vibration / reverberance at really low speed taking off and stopping.

The old KM2's on my JK it was really noticeable

I agree - probably just those knobby mud tires the Texas Trail has. I drove a Willys before ordering my Sport S and one test drive with those factory mud tires I told myself absolutely not
