    Hinges popping out of their holes (21fbs)

    I had one door do this in my NT. Used a spot of gorilla glue to hold the inserts in and let dry over night. Worked like a charm. I am doing it to the rest of the cabinet doors proactively as I get time. Cj

    If you had a second chance at a do over (manual vs electric awning)?

    Re: If you had a second chance at a do over? I have had both and although the manual one is nice in that you can adjust it, I love the ease of the electric awning and wouldn't trade it for anything.

    Speaker Pair Question

    Mine are hooked up A=Right, B=Left, C=Outside. When I had the trailer in for warranty work I asked that they fix them, stating that they should be front/back and not left/right. They said that my trailer was wired per factory settings, explaining that they were A=Kitchen, B=Dining/sofa...

    Struts to hold up bed

    Keyra, I will try to answer both your questions. First the struts, they are not included on the NT units, I have seen them on other brands. They would not be difficult to install, I think there is a post under North Trail Modifications section of the forum that someone did this. Search there...

    Lakeshore RV - MI

    I bought my NT from Lakeshore RV, but am also local to the area. I went through Jeff Rake who was very good to deal with, honest and no pressure sales. My only issue has been with the service dept. They are very difficult to get on the phone and even when they had my TT, they failed to do...

    Our new '11 NT 31BDSS

    Great photos! We love our NT, looks like you are getting good use out of yours. Camping in the snow, crazy! Too cold in MI to do that.cj

    Is it just me or do most new owners have a "delivery check list"?

    Moose, I can't agree with you more. I am a fix it yourself kind of Guy, but I expect new to be NEW and to be what I paid for. It is confusing to say the least that I am expected to be the end of the line quality inspection.

    Outside Kitchen door

    I am having the same problem with mine, I know exactly what you are talking about. I was going to call Customer Service to see what they would do about it. I am concerned not as much from a water leak issue but more from a long term life of the door. They put a big notch in the frame for the...

    Why do I click Caliber and get North Trail and what's the deal?

    On the HeartlandRV website, look at the floor plans for the North Trails, they will indicate which models are available in Caliber Edition, King Slides only I believe. We have the 29BUDS in Caliber Edition, definitely worth the upgrade price. Not for full body paint though.

    Touch Audio suggestions?

    My touch system is for crap! Trailer is not even 2 months old and the touch function no longer works, hope I don't lose the remote. From the internet searches I did, it seems like there is only one other system out there, which is an older model (Jensen brand). Very interested to see if there...

    Awning hanging up

    I had this issue with my North Trail during my PDI. The service tech said the awning needed an adjustment to the alignment. The roll would unwind the awning, but the arms would stay tight to the trailer sides. You had to pull on the arms to get it to "break free". Sounds like a similar...

    ATF: North Trail - Trailer clearence issue

    If you look at the specs on the Heartland web site, you will notice that the king slide units are taller, the difference is in the frame height. The 30QOK is a kitchen slide and sits lower. The 32BHDS is a king slide and sits higher, that is the reason one of these trailers drags and the...
