2020 Ranger Lariat
I've got 1600mi on my Lariat now and when I tow my 2-place snowmobile trailer with sled, ~2000lbs, I get some vibration at 65mph on highway. When the sun visor is down you can visibly see it shake and at times, I can feel a slight shake in the steering wheel. Before anyone says it's the trailer, I never got vibration from my Ridgeline. That said, I assume it could just be how the trailer attaches to truck compared to Ridgeline. Maybe the height at the ball is a little different, maybe the Ranger is less aero, so I get more drag from the trailer. Any other ideas?

Can't say what your specific problem is, but if it doesn't vibrate when you don't have the trailer on, I'd see about having the tires on the trailer balanced, if they are balanced, it's possible you bent your trailer axle.
