Just remember to maintain the ~6" of clearance over the bed sides and that when hooked up the hitch itself is level and not cocked up or down (F to B).

Put the kids on a diet.

Understood. We're working on cleaning it out now. **** there is a lot of "stuff", filling a 2 car garage.

I have 5500 EVAP gas version and change the oil every 100 hrs (~450 hrs now) I use straight 30wt non-synthetic and have yet to have to add oil between changes. When in use I shut it down once every 24 hrs and check the oil. I would go to a straight 30w oil not synthetic and see what happens...

Here's another option. I've stayed at the park but don't know anything about the school https://nrvta.com/

After replacing my rear ramp I basically have a clean palette appx 7'x7' to play with. Local company would install whatever picture I picked or made up for around $500 for those wondering about cost. It seems DW and I could never agree on what we wanted so I still have a blank ramp. Too many...

Basically you have 5 years to put as many miles as you can on them. Replace after 5 years or no tread. Whichever comes first

Re: Furrow Camera Mine is wired to the parking lights so I can turn it on when needed. A hint: If the monitor antenna is vertical make the camera the same. My monitor antenna is horizontal because of where it's mounted. The camera is the same, horizontal. For the techies using a horizontally...

Per Sailun: ST235/85R16 Load rating a 110 PSI is 4400 lbs each. That's 17,600 lbs of load rating Subtract ~4K for hitch and you could run 100 PSI.

And I'm reading all of it, BUT I hate selling and putting up with tire kickers. When I get ready I'll probably list it here for a bit before going the consignment route. One extra does count, a bunch. An 8 month old RV-Armor spray-on roof with a lifetime warranty against leakage. Good for...

I talked to an appraiser at PPL this afternoon. Their guesstimate on a price pending inspection was in the price range that would get me what I wanted to clear. The lady told me some of the aftermarket stuff could make it easier to sell and raise the price, depending on the buyer. As far as...

I am contemplating on selling my rv and have a question. Looking at PPL Consignment sales. I know with an individual sale the add-ons I have added (TPMS, Camera, Surge Suppressor, etc etc) would add to the value but how about selling/consignment with a dealer? Would I be better off removing the...

Gorilla tape it.

You should see a big rig when the turbo blows. It will put out a smoke screen you can't see thru. Not much power either.

6 point level-up here. If the site is level, no chocks. If not, I use them on the downhill side tires (both) so that the only thing keeping it in place while unhooking is NOT the front landing gear. I don't want the landing gear carrying a side load (F,R,L,R), only vertical load. I use the large...

LevelMate Pro Look it up. Neatest thing since sliced bread. I quit using the Auto Level.

The ramp on mine delaminated from not being sealed. At abt 2 yrs old it was like walking on a sponge. I contacted both Heartland AND Lippert. All Heartland said was we didn't build it call the mfg. After much harassing and haggling they (lippert) agreed to give me a door, the shipping was right...

I have the 16" Sailuns on my RV with GVWR of 15,500 I looked up the Sailun chart for my tires of weight vs pressure. My max is 110 lbs. I run 95 cold which is by the chart. On a hot day they will get up to 105-110. At 95 the trailer rides much smoother and there is less "stuff" shaken up than at...

Buy once, cry once. Just get the Onan your rig is wired for.

Just get Sailuns

Just remember it not only has to cool off the air but also the walls, ceiling, and furniture. Everything in there is hot.

I asked about the HOC discount and here's the reply. Notice the word YET Hi Cliff, We have not entered into a marketing agreement with the Heartland Owners Club yet, so there are no discounts for Heartland Owners Club members. PS. I am a Heartland owner myself - a Bighorn 5th wheel. Ed Ed...

Very interesting.. Jim do they have a HOC discount??? I see FMCA.

What you up to on the roof? Millie was informed when ours was done she would not have to get on the roof again, and she took it seriously.

It will probably be fine in the morning(been charging all night) but check and make a note of it. Wait 5-10 min before checking it. Then when you arrive at the next stop check it again before hooking up to power.

The only thing keeping mine from cooling down in 110 deg heat is 6-8 gkids. I need a revolving door. If I plan on leaving on a hot day I turn on the AC's the night before and cool it down to the 60's. Then when I leave I run the generator and 1 or 2 AC's as needed.

Look closely at any splitters. In my rig the splitters were plainly marked CATV to 900 MHz. Satellite is much higher. Also after much frustration I bought a cable tracer similar to the one below and mapped out all of the cables in my RV. FWIW The supplied schematics were very close to...

Looking good. You will find out it deadens some sound.

I told you they were fast and don't mess around. They offered to cover the shower skylight on ours and said I could walk on it when finished. At 250 lbs I wasn't too sure of that but we left it uncovered anyway. We had 2 vents, bathroom and kitchen. We replaced the bath with a 3 speed and both...

If you want to call that massive conglomeration of wires going everywhere and nowhere a harness, well ok. Designed and built by the 3 stooges.

I wish I knew, since I've been a member here, how many times I've seen the SRW vs DRW vs 3/4T debate. It's amazing but it seems that after a period of time you find the 3/4's have graduated to SRW and in many cases to DRW. I think a lot of it depends on RV usage. A once a month trip to the lake...

I tend to disagree. My trailer loaded to 15.500 has abt 4200lbs of pin weight, add the 30 gal aux tank and the tool box and you're overloaded(another 400 lbs). Those are real numbers from the scales. I'm not overloaded as mine has training wheels. You really need to weigh it loaded to go...

Tiger are you going to Denton?? Those guys are great. I dropped mine off and watched them back it into a stall with a forklift. We went onto the office to do paperwork and when I left they already had the 3 ac's sitting on the ground and were taking everything else off the roof. They don't mess...

I'm sure a reasonably proficient carpenter could replace the system with sliding patio doors. BUT an 8' wide double patio door would only have a 4' opening with the doors all the way open. Kinda hard to get a 2 wheeler thru that size hole. My bike would have no problem though. The current system...

Be very careful. There is more to the tow package than different gears.

When I bought mine the Teacher Credit Union wanted over 8% for a boat, motorcycle, or rv. They were getting 3% on vehicles. I told the dealer I wanted 4.5% or less and he got it thru Bank of America.

Here's a picture of mine at the tire dealers getting the willpops replaced with Sailuns when it was abt a month old. Just remember if you do this DON'T let the axle hangers flip. The springs in the middle should be ABOVE the hanger, not below.

Several years ago when I looked it was 12k front and 8k rear. That's each for a total of 56k lifting capacity for a 15.5k rated 5'er. Sometimes it makes you think, "What are they thinking?" Over 3 times needed for leveling jacks and has 2 7k axles?

We're in.
