It's time for new tires for my 2006 Landmark Shenandoah. Loaded weight 14K lbs. The Goodyear LT235/85R16 was the go to tire. I was a little shocked at the $2400 price. Any recommendations for a comparable tire that costs less?

To anyone interested. I pulled down the fan shroud off the toilet room and was able to measure the roof. The EPDM is less than 1/16" and the luan (particle board) is 3/8". A metal fabricator told me the trusses were probably 1/16" thick but no more than 1/8".

Thanks for the feedback Jim. I called Heartland and spoke with a young guy that was absolutely no help at all. Do you have a name of somebody I could ask to speak with that has some history at Heartland? The brochure was helpful and quite an interesting read. I downloaded it for future...

Does anybody have knowledge of the roof construction on the 2006 Landmarks. I know they had the aluminum trusses. I believe it was then layered with particle board then luan and then the EPDM covering. I need to know if this is correct and also what the thickness is of the luan, particle board...

I have a 2006 Landmark Shenandoah. The luan underneath the rubber epdm has delaminated from the trusses by the bath vent over to the opposite side. It goes from one truss to 4' over to the third truss over. It is ok 6" to 8" in from the sides but in the center is springy and is up approx. 1". I...

We have a 04' duramax. We just had a glowplug replaced at the dealer. He told us they are covered under warranty up to 200,000 miles!

I have the Firestone Dual Air Command II with the auxiliary air tank and hose. You can pump up each air bag seperately although I travel with both set the same at 50 psi usuallly. It is nice to be able to change the air pressure on the fly if the road condition dictates it. I have a steep...

Tom Is it possible to replace the fitting without pulling the lines out? I've been told I have to pull them out to have a new fitting put on. I'd be willing to take a chance on that if it can be done. Please advise! Thanks!

My fittings are leaking between the crimp and the stationary nut so I have to replace the whole line. I would consider myself insane to remove the Chinese made lines, put a new fitting on and put them back in. I want some REAL hydraulic lines.

I have a 2006 Landmark Shenendoah. Because the fittings are leaking going to the slideouts I need to relace the hydraulic lines. More Chinese crap:mad:. Since I'll have to drop the bottom to access the lines I've decided to replace all the lines. I have three front jack lines leaking also...

I have a 06' Landmark. I have had several problems with the hydraulic hoses leaking. They don't leak at the fitting but at the junction where the end fitting is crimped onto the hose. I have replaced four hoses only to have the new ones leak. They were purcased from Lippert. The only hoses to...

Is it possible to change out the Ultra-lube wheel bearing assembly to the Never-lube system? If so, how much does it cost? Thanks, Sparkie

Satellite Connection If you already have a satellite service at home you can take one of your satellite receivers from the house and use it in the coach. You will need to get a used dish, which are usually free to $25, a cable, $10 and a compass. There is no extra fee from your satellite...

I have a o6 Landmark Shenandoah. Because of the gap between the end of the awning and the slideout by the front door when it rains the area in front of the door gets soaked. I have been trying to figure out how to arrange a tarp over that opening and still have the rain sensor engaged on the...

We had the same problem in our 06 Landmark. The dealer had to pull it out and re-install it. They told us it was a common problem. If your under warranty get ahold of your dealer. If your a handyman I'm sure you can do the fix! Happy camping!!!
