Thanks Guys for all of your great suggestions. As I told my friend which I am offering consultation on changing our his refrigerator, I can go the Heartland Forum and by so doing can acquire a wealth of knowledge with just a few key strokes on my computer. To those that have responded with...

Helping a friend install a new Residential Refrigerator to replace a Dometic RM1350 (w/o ice maker) that just will not work. The redesign dilemma is, how to route a new water line to the new refrigerator w/ice maker that is in a slide. Any suggestion will be well appreciated. Thanks in advance...

I need help! I have been trying to determine if the Dometic RM1350 and RM1350IM refrigerator use the same power module/control board part number 385005029. I have searched the Internet and thus far, have not been able to make this determination.

Thinking about replacing the patio awning material. I have watched several U tube videos on how to replace a manual operated awning, but as of yet have not found a U tube video on how to replace the awning material on a electrically operated Dometic awning on my 2010 Bighorn. Also, would like...

I agree with Dan. At 50 amp RV plug has two 110 volt legs, one neutral, and one ground. All of which are to come/originate directly from the main supply/breaker box and not from a 220 volt welding outlet.

I agree with what has be aforementioned on how to hold the anode rod with a six point socket and extension during the anode installation. I use a round SST bottle brush that can be purchased from a plumbing supply to clean the female threads in the tank's threaded coupling. A closer look of...

Re: "Heartland" brand tires Rod, Thanks for the information about the possibility of getting some support in the way of repairs from Good Year. So far the cost of a replacement finder skirt from Heartland has been less than $100. My labor is cheap. Regards, Jim - - -...

Another Tire Brand Question Since I recently had a failure of a GY G614 tire, I am considering two other brands of tires from Discount Tire Co. I had previous made note of the Heartland brand of tire and no one seems to have any experience with this brand, the other brand that the local...

Thanks for all the advice on purchasing a GPS. I bought a Garmin RV 660LMT from Amazon for $224 + tax. So far I really like the RV 660. Very easy to use.

I am considering upgrading my GPS to something more suitable to my travel needs with an RV. My current GPS is a Garmin 1490. I am looking for a GPS that has a good data base for the specific needs for traveling with a RV. Thanks in advance for you advice.

Thanks for all of the responses concerning Heartland brand RV tires. I have always had more than satisfactory service on tire adjustment from Discount Tire. The reason that I initiated the question about Heartland tires is that a good friend had a blowout with a GY G614 tire and needed a...

Does anyone have experience with Heartland brand tires sold by Discount Tire Company? The LT G rated 16" Heartland tires for my BH sell for $185 ++ which is almost half the price of a GoodYear G614 tire.

I haven't read all the responses to this post, but when I saw that welding was used to seal the cracked rim I felt that I needed to respond by cautioning anyone on welding or having a aluminum rim welded to seal the crack. Welding and welding processes have been my field of endeavor for a...

As John noted, they are available at Lowes or Home Depot. As I recall, the replacement element wattage for the one at Lowes is a little less, say 1,400 watts versus 1,500 watts for the original Suburban element. Search Lowes website for Utilitech Water Heater Screw Element, cost is less than...

Used the Hensley hitch on a Mobile Scout TT for a number of years. Also used other TT hitches. Nothing compares to the Hensley hitch. They are expensive but well worth the expenditure. I sold my Hensley for almost the initial purchase price when we upgraded to the Big Horn.
