Re: Suspension Problem? Drop your hitch, get the trailer level.

UNTRUE!!!! What else would you propose to clean them in?? Stoddard Solvent, Safety Clean Solvent, or Mineral Spirits are common good cleaning solvents. If the grease doesn't stick, the bearing are not dry.

Never replace one without the other!!! Failure will be imminent.

What are the dimensions of it??

Re: Water heater If you have a 50 amp rig, are both legs hot?? You could have a leg down.

Re: Thermostat Powered vent fan in the ceiling.

Most likely for a Fantastic Fan.

The Barker unit attaches to the valve. I replaced the valves while I was in there. Pretty straight forward install, 4 bolts for the valve, attach a spacer to the valve rod, adjust clearance, attach actuator rod to spacer, run the wires to the control unit, hook up to a 12 volt source and...

When parking the rig, chock the trailer wheels, release the parking brake, put the truck in neutral, and foot off the brake. This will release any rolling load off the ball. Then apply the parking brake and put back in park.

Just replaced both grey cable operated valves with Barker electric operated valves. Our front grey tank valve, bathroom, ha a 72" cable that would not close anymore, felt spongy for the last inch or so when trying to close.

Don't rely on looks, get the meter out and OHM them, you might be surprised.

Re: ATF: Road Warrior - Water Leak from Fwd AC unit There are 4 long bolts that go through the ceiling bracket into the bottom of the A/C unit. The unit sets on a foam seal. Try snugging the 4 bolts equally, the torque value is 14 ft lbs. They should all be the same. It also could be over...

Check for a 3 amp fuse going to the solenoid valve for the ice maker. Bothe sets of wires are 12 volt, one is for the valve, the other is for the heater on the water line.

In our 2014, when new, 1000-1100 miles to 5 gallons towing the Landmark. Towing around home 6500 lb trailer 2500-2700 miles to 5 gallon 20,000 on the clock.

Most likely condensation from the A/C duct, probably where there is contact between the duct and ceiling.

I tow our 40' Landmark with out any other help with our Ram. I am pushing 4,000 lb pin weight pretty good. The overloads are there for a reason, use them.

I have the LRE4000 on our coach, helps considerably. Also did the shackle kit as well.

It is usually cheaper to buy the complete axle than to buy the components and install them. I am going to go to 8,000 lb axels when I go to disc brakes, the complete axle is about $100 cheaper than buying the parts.

Ours had one in each corner

When I repaired ours for the water tank falling out, I found I had 4 vents, 3 to the ground, 1 to the gravity fill. I removed 2 and installed a valve in the one remaining.

Clean the surface with alcohol and use Gorilla tape.

I used a piano hinge, pop rivets and washers

The pads ruined!! The will leach out grease when they heat up during use.

Could be hooked up to come on when in reverse for night backing.

Also keep in mind, if you are using a vent/power vent, while you are exhausting air, humid make up air has to come in from somewhere.

Water will stay suspended in the evaporator while the fan is running, when the unit/fan shuts down, all that water will run out at once. Normal. Use no-sag Dicor sealant to build a curb to direct the runoff where you want it to go. Water on the slides is not going to hurt anything, it rains...

Have you been replacing the spring center bolt?? It is what keeps the spring pack together and in line with the axle. If you just putting the leaf back in and tightening the U-bolts, you will continue loosing the leaves.

When running with out a trailer, you need to let the air out of the rear tires. 80 psi for running with max load is way too much for running empty. I always run the rear at 40 psi when not towing the Landmark.

My 08 and my10 both had the 68RFE tranny, never had an issue with either one. Pulled the 40' Landmark very well. I have the Aisin in my 14, it is a better transmission and I can't believe the way it performs. The 68RFE is an excellent transmission and will provide you years of service, just...

When we lived in our Landmark while building our new house, it is parked under a carport. I did find that it did help to have a fan blowing across the A/C's just to keep the hot air moving away from the units. In a building, the air will get hotter and pool around the upper parts of the...

Redneck Trailer

The national standard is 2.5 GPM at 65 PSI.

Possibly too much weight in those compartments, or overloading and our infamous glass smooth roads we have.

Re: New and need some advice Try picking up the phone and talking to the campground personnel. I have been all over this nation pulling our 40' Landmark, we are over 57' running down the road and never had an issue finding a site whether pull through or back in.

Replace the bulb with a known good bulb from another working light fixture. A bulb can look good, but it is really bad, you can check the bulb with a Ohm meter.

Look for Redneck Trailer in your area.

I use approx. 5 gallons of DEF while towing heavy every 1000-1200 miles. When bob tailing or towing my light trailer, 6500 pounds, I will get between 2700-3000 miles to 5 gallons. I run it down until I get the refill message, 200 miles till de-rate, then add 5 gallons.

My vote is for Bluewater Key, www.bluewaterkey.com. Be sure to go to the ".com" not the ".net" site.

When on electric, you can here a sizzle when it is heating, normal. All electric water heaters do it.

While not a Bighorn, our 06 ( built in 05 ) Landmark is still a good unit. Like said above, keeping up on the maintenance is the thing.
