    ATF: Bighorn - Skin coming loose in king pin area

    I got an answer from Heartland. And I'm disgusted with them as usual. Should have known better than to contact them. I was hoping that with Thor acquiring them they might be different, but they haven't been any help to me. I wasn't expecting them to fix it for free. Just to fix it right. I can't...

    Water leak at bedroom slide.

    I had also had a leak in my bedroom slide. I checked all the possibilities. Nothing that I did worked, until I noticed how the slide was leaning. It was leaning in to the rig. Changed that leak stopped. Seems too simple to be the cause but I have my fingers crossed.

    Apollo Half Time Oven Microwave Latch Appears Broken

    Exact same thing happened to us. They sent us a new latch but when I took it apart nothing was wrong with the old latch. The tab was bent in a way that allowed it to come off. I straightened the tab and it Hasn't happened since. That was two years ago.

    Wheel lug nuts and studs on BH

    I thought about that but with all the problems with them coming loose that I read about on the internet, and all the trouble I had breaking them loose I thought it may be something like loctite.

    Wheel lug nuts and studs on BH

    I'm in the process of repacking my bearings and ajusting the brakes. I noticed that the lugs and nuts has a residue on them. I figured Heartland was putting something on the threads to lock the nuts. Something like loctite. Not red or blue but either gray or white.Anyone know what it is.
