Maybe somebody will send you the specs. on your model. You might find out some more about it by looking for specs. or floor plans for 05 Landmarks if they are still available on the net. I have a 09 Bighorn and it has one capped off filler access for the fresh water tank and two places to attach...

That is close to the national average according to the news reports around here. I would like to apologize for all of the greed and corruption around our area but I would be talking all day. Tom

The black spots on mine are usually around the vents and other protrusions in the roof. The vent caps are nearly black from it. I don't care what it is, it gets washed twice a year so I figure it is as clean as it is going to get. I am with those who don't care for too harsh of chemicals as long...

Thanks Wayne! It looks like Dave has got some heading our way. Tom

I just drove past one of our local fuel stations and the price for regular gas is 4.23/9 and the V-Power is at 4.55/9. The diesel is at 398/9 but I think it was a little higher a few days ago. I don't know what the prices are over at Goshen but they were higher just across the line in Indiana a...

OKAY DAVE!!! Please save me some. I will see you when we get to the rally. Hope you have a nice safe trip. Keep an eye on your fuel, you might want to stop and fill up before you get close, the fuel prices have gone way up around here in just the last week. Tom

Yes! That is it but our Wal-mart site says it is available too but it hasn't been for the last 4 months and I have looked in every food store in this part of the country for it. If they REALLY have it, see how many cans you can find and I will pay you for them when I see you at Goshen. Keep in...

We have the covers over the vents so we tow with the vents open, bathroom and bedroom. It still got hot enough inside by the time we got to the Illinois rally 2 years ago that I had to turn the fridge up a notch until it caught up and cooled the food back down to normal. I think it was 93* that...

I got a taste for Kraft Easy Cheese Cheddar 'n Bacon when we were traveling last winter. For some reason they don't sell it around here but still advertise it on cans of other flavors. The Cheddar 'n Bacon tastes best on the butter crackers that I buy. If anybody finds the Cheddar' n Bacon...

I have always wondered if critters or bugs could crawl up the drains in these rigs. My wife had a frog jump out of a toilet in a house in Florida one time and we figured it got up through the drain. Maybe I'm paranoid but I only open mine long enough to drain the tanks. Tom

I got the new batteries and installed them with the new orings and then I figured why not change the washers while I'm at it. They are installed and reading again. I still have to program in the ones for the back of the truck. Thanks for all of the great info., it made doing the job easy. Tom

Thanks for all the information. I took one apart but I'm waiting on my batteries to arrive. I think I will discard the antitheft caps too, just to make them handier and lighter. I will try the plastic toothpicks and the safety pin as needed. I already have a set of the miniature screw drivers...

Do the little black disks fit inside the part that screws onto the valve stem. Do you have any problems getting the old ones out or can they be poked out from the other side? Thanks! Tom

Re: TST 507 model Tpms battereis and o-rings Are there any videos or some other clear instructions for changing these batteries? I just got my oring kit and my batteries are on order. I also bought two more tire sensors so that I can monitor the rear tires on the truck. I haven't got into...

It is fairly common to have insufficient clips holding the sink up. When I found water in the frying pans under the sink I removed a clip and fabricated a few and after adding them to what was already there, they held the sink up completely. Don't forget to recaulk around the top of the sink...

I thought hardheads were people who can't be convinced that they are wrong. My wife calls me that once in a while. What are the kind that were buried in the sand? Tom

Just wondering if that is about the lifetime of the G614s because I have them on the Bighorn. So I was wondering if I will have to replace mine in a couple of more years. Don't want to steal the thread but if anybody else has had them fail I would be interested to know how long they last. Glad...

Thanks John! I will wrap the rescue tape and maybe see if I can find an innertube about 3" in diameter and slide that over it and see if I can clamp it tight. Tom

I took the motor in to a place that rebuilds starters and alternators. They fixed it and said that they used some heavier springs that won't rust as quickly. Cleaning greasing and parts for $40.43 looked like a good deal to me. He said that I need to seal the motor better and it should last a...

Thanks John! We should be home in a couple of days and I will take a good look at it then. The cord is frayed where it enters the motor casing so I figure I'm better off waiting until we get home to try resetting any breakers. I don't want to start burning anything up while we are on the road...

A few days ago we heard a loud pop and couldn't figure where it came from. Then this morning I started raising the rear stabilizers and I noticed that one side was raising and the other side wasn't. I picked up on the one that was hanging and the other side dropped down. I decided to go ahead...

I thought that I would suggest how to thaw one out if you freeze one up. I used a conair hair dryer on the one in Ok. on the way through this winter. It thawed out the spigot and the ends of my hoses enough to get them loose so we could travel on. After that I used heat tape on the water hose at...

I am hoping to get a Grandson to help me a little with this Iphone when we get home. Right now I have some minor problems, like when I go to the weather where my son lives in Mo. it shows the weather at my location in Fl.,and I can't seem to change it, everything else works fine on it though...

When we first got ours I took the cap off of the canister in the basement and found the vacumm bag and instruction book inside a plastic bag inside the canister. If your vacuum doesn't have any power make sure that the instruction book isn't rolled up in a plastic bag inside the canister. We had...

There are a lot of GPS apps that are free but I haven't found one yet that is as handy as the garmin for finding places and how to get there. The only problem with our two garmins gps units, is that they go crazy sometimes and try to steer us wrong. Sometimes they start out right and then go...

We live near Kankakee Il. but we will be at the Il. rally at Chatham Il. near Springfield. I will look at your floor plan and see if I might be able to help you figure out a solution. Ours originally had one duct to the bedroom, one to the bathroom, one to the kitchen and two to the livingroom...

I have been using the Angel Soft toilet paper for some time now but lately I noticed that it is taking a long time to flush the black tank. The water will quit flowing out for awhile and then a big clump of paper comes out. A guy on a different forum noticed the Angel Soft is NEW and now it...

When I buy mine I just buy a couple of sets of bearings but I buy enough seals to do the whole works twice. The reason that I do that is that I hand pack my bearings nearly every year on the Bighorn and the seals should be changed even if the bearnings are still good. I have found that the...

Thanks Jim, I am always trying to figure out what the zip codes are, so that is a good one. Tapatalk is kind of hard to start with but I will probably get it set up where it is easier to use. Right now I like the pc for getting on the forum. Tom

Re: Uncomfotable tow There was a guy at a rv park over in Baton Rouge a few weeks ago who was having so much trouble with his towing set up that he had some guys come out and help him get it set up right. I don't know where they came from though, company that made the hitch or the one that made...

Re: Questioin about furnace flue That always amazes me that that much heat can go out the exhaust on the side of the Bighorn. If anybody figures out a way to harness it without gasing themselves to death or ruining the furnace let me know. Tom

I have Camp and RV, Imap weather radio with the alerts for five different locations plus mine, flashlight and one that tells me how to fish for bass. The gas buddy has already saved me money on fuel and I will get the tapatalk. I get internet on the phone and on the pc while on the road and we...

Yep! Your my kind of people but I carry a small plastic level that I use when leveling up. I have to sign out now so I don't use up all of our gigs. Tom

I stopped at a Firestone dealers to see what my options were and got some Bridgestone dueller ATs that have a rating of 3750 per tire at 80# psi. They are a 285 75 16 so they are a little wider than the uniroyals but they look more like a real truck tire. The dealer said that they have had very...

I have heard that I might get 19.5 whels that will fit the Ford so I will keep that as an option when checking around tomorrow. I sure want to thank all of you for all of the good advice, at least I have an idea as to what to ask for in a tire store now. Thanks again Tom

We got Iphones, and YES it was pretty dark that far back in the cave, so I was wondering which apps you find the most useful? I have downloaded Camp and Rv already. Also is there one that shows the real time weather radar that follows our location and maybe alerts to bad weather? Tom

Thanks for all of the replies. I was hoping that somebody used a F or G rated tire on their single rear wheels that would support the weight of the fifth wheel better than the E rated tires. I know that the G614s are a LT tire but I haven't heard of anybody using them on the truck and so I was...

Illinois requires a FOID card, that's a firearm owners identification card. You have to transport the empty gun locked in a case in a different compartment seperate from the ammo. After Wisconsin passed the concealed carry law, from what I read they are no better, you still have to carry the gun...

Thanks, I will carry mine in a zip lock bag because I don't have a vacuum packer but I like the idea of packing them with grease first. Tom

We just blew a 3 year old Uniroyal Liberator-LT 265 75 R16 yesterday on the rear of the truck. I was wondering if there is a tire that holds up better for heavy towing with single rear wheels? I don't know if changing the size of the tire would get me a higher rated tire and if so what all is...
