    Bedroom Slide roller damage

    No more worries about the bedroom slide or that sofa-bed air mattress. The Greystone is history and so I'll bid farewell to Heartland. Can't say it has been all that fun. Good luck to you all.

    Bedroom Slide roller damage

    Just returned from the RV repair shop. What a mess. Seems as though the bed frame where is was attached to the slide mechanism came apart. There were a total of five (5) screws holding the frame 2X2s to the headboard and slide mechanism. Two of the three holding the bottom were broken off where...

    Step Daddy Truck Ladder

    These look promising but not sure how they would work on my flow through tailgate.

    Bedroom Slide roller damage

    Decided that it was just too big of a job for me so am taking it to a local RV repair shop (not a dealer at $120 per hour!). Have a couple of other minor issues that they will also handle while there. He plans on putting "plates" on the bottom of the room for the rollers to glide on and then...

    Bedroom Slide roller damage

    Mine is a Greystone - basically the same as the Sundance. The floor is OSB as the pieces and parts are coming out through the now completely cut wrap.

    Bedroom Slide roller damage

    sundanceandbutch, Pulled mine up to load and get some photos of the underside. It appears that mine is doing the same. The OSB is very soft where the rollers initially caused the damage so the water wicking sounds reasonable. It was not 'soft' a month ago but now is essentially gone. Sent...

    Extended drawer in bedroom

    Finished the drawer expansions. DW thought it was a lot of work for nothing while I was doing the drawers. Last time we went out, however, she noted the additional space. It does make a difference.

    Bedroom Slide roller damage

    Cookie, that sounds like a good idea. I can see where the roller has actually cut through the thin plywood bottom of the slide. I would think that the roller should make contact with an area of the bottom that had a more substantial contact surface than the thin plywood bottom. That's a lot of...

    Bedroom Slide roller damage

    We've had our Greystone 32RL for two years now and the underside slowly had deteriorated too. During warranty had the dealer work on it at least twice and now I see that the rollers have actually cut through the underside. It all started with the bottom seal being pulled back on to the rollers...

    Lippert...WOW!

    WOW! Heartland does monitor this forum. Less than 2 hours after my post above, I received a call from Seating Technologies' Jackie. She was very apologetic and kept repeating that those responses are not what they expect out of their warranty folks. She is sending a new air-mattress and gave...

    Lippert...WOW!

    Must say your experience was much different than mine. On third inflation, we discovered a leak at a seam in our air-bed mattress by Seating Technologies (owned by Lippert). I knew we were out of warranty and really did not expect a replacement. I simply wanted to know the best way to repair...

    Heated mattress pads

    We've got one (heated mattress pad) on our bed in the stick house as well as the Greystone. Both are dual control. Great fro warming the bed up on those chilly/cold nights.

    50 to 30 amp adapter

    I made my own 50 to 30 amp cord. Found a 35' 30 amp cord on eBay and also a 50 amp Marinco female end. Put the female end on the 30 amp cord and I'm there. Did have to put in a jumper between two terminals of the female end. Has worked great and it is a 35' vs the standard 25' so I've never...

    Fading paint

    Check to see how much they are willing to pay. In my case it was only about half.
