Thanks for the ideas. I am using RV Z-mounts that will raise the panels about an inch off the roof. I'll try #12 1" screws and see how firm they feel.

Hi All -- I am attaching solar panels to a Sundance RLB3300. I have read some people use #10+ 1" screws, others use Well-Nuts, and I am sure there are other choices. Any recommendations?

Hi Heartland -- my dealer is recommending a bolt-on 2" receiver for the rear bumper that I can connect a bike rack to (that they also sale) for 4 bikes. Is this a reasonable approach -- I don't want to risk damage to the frame. Sorry, I don't have the VIN of the 5th wheel with me but can...

Yep -- I can do without that happening again. I was praying the single tire didn't blow on the way to the garage.

Here is a closer pic. I have not taken one of wheel yet. Dark here now and I'm tired from the adventure :)

I'm glad it wasn't any worse! We had the bearings and brakes checked when we took it out of storage this Spring. We've put a few hundred miles on it since then, but today was the day it decided to go. The nut is still on -- I hope the mechanic can shed some light on what happened.

I don't know what happened either -- I hope to get the mechanic to take a good look tomorrow or Monday and see what he thinks.

Hi All -- about two hours into our trip to visit friends in NM and then onto the Sand Dunes, I noticed in my rear view mirror one wheel was kicked out at the bottom -- running slanted. I slowed down to a crawl until we could find a safe place to get off the highway. The wheel dropped about 50...

I was pulling my Sundance through town recently. I stopped at a light, waiting to turn left. When the light changed, it felt like the truck was sluggish to get started. As I made the left turn, I noticed a smoke cloud from a left tire on the Sundance. It stopped smoking almost when I...

That is crazy -- I might suggest one of several good tent options for them instead :)

Thanks -- found it : http://www.flairinteriors.com/warranty/warranty.html

We started using the sofa bed air mattress in our 3300RLB Sundance. It won't hold air through the night. I brought the mattress home last weekend when we stored the Sundance. I found two leaks at a seam. Unfortunately, I did not think to look for the warranty info, which is still in the...

That makes sense -- I'll have to look for a check valve so I know where it is. Thanks!

Great news! I've had our new 3300RLB out three times so far -- it was snowing every single time we packed-up. Have to love spring-time in the Rockies :) The only problem I have with taking the Sundance out is I keep finding mods I want to do to make it "me". Have fun with it!

What I'm thinking of as the spring loaded check valve (on the outside part of the water heater) was a pressure relief valve. Is this what you changed? We don't have the problem at the kitchen sink, just the low-flow shower, which makes me think it is pressure related. I have ordered an...
