Welcome to the forum and congratulations on the new rig. When you get the chance, take a look for a Heartland Owners Club near you. Members are full of it...I mean full of lots of experience and helpful information! Wishing you many happy and safe camping adventures!

You might look at THESE. JR Products supplies a lot of manufacturers with parts. Best Wishes!

Congratulations on the new rig! It's always fun to get a new toy! Best Wishes!

Congratulations on the new rig! No doubt you will have many happy camping trips with the Sundance...they are great coaches! Welcome to the forum and consider looking for a Heartland Owners Club Chapter near you! Lots of knowledgeble and fun people to share travels with! Best Wishes!

Hello Rosie! Two things...first, welcome to the forum and since I see you are from WA State please consider joining the WA HOC when you get your rig. Here is a blurb about our 2011 State Rally and here is information about this years gathering in Twisp. Secondly, I sent you a PM regarding your...

I personally would not tow with it...just seen to much serious damage from blown tires. I would be afraid to take the chance having seen the flaw.

Re: I need help.....again Awesome! All issues should be so easy to solve! Have a great trip!

Hello! We have a Big Country 3450TS which is basically your same floorplan. I sent you a PM with some information that may be helpful! Best Wishes!

I didn't say it was. Simply just the way it is published in the Sendel catalog with the T02 wheels.

I remember the thread you are referring to but I couldn't find it either. The one thing that stuck in my mind about that conversion was the $550 quoted for each wheel! Probably the most sure-fire option but too pricey for me. Many of the manufacturers use wheels made by Sendel Our Big Country...

They do tow nice...don't forget it's behind you! :D Glad it is going so well! Have a great time!

If you are planning on sticking with an ST E rated tire, the Maxxis 10ply MT8008 has a very good track record. I have no experience with Hankook but they have been getting some good press with RV'ers with their F19 tire.

I think most of the Landmarks advertise a 104 gal freshwater tank.

Welcome to the forum. I am sure we will all benefit from your experience and knowledge. One thing that makes this forum so refreshing is no one appears to take on the "weight police" attitude that seems so prevalent on a few other popular forums. Members are here to help each other and learn...

We seldom carry much water, except enough for the emergency flush, but when I sanitize the tank I do fill it full just as Ken decribes...until it won't take anymore in the fill hole! I have found it necessary to blow the vent free sometimes to aid in the filling process, otherwise it can be slow...

Re: How do I look up a memeber, if I have their HOC number? You could always give us a range of member numbers (e.g. 1230 - 1300) and we can copy/paste a list for you and send in a PM.

Re: How do I look up a memeber, if I have their HOC number? Try saving the file first to your desktop and then open it with Excel or Open Office. I just tried it and it worked fine.

We too have encountered some pretty strong winds crossing the Cascades and I was surprised at how stable the rig towed. I don't think I would depart in high winds but I don't believe it is something one needs to worry about encontering along the way unless its severe or becomes uncomfortable. I...

CarlD Congratulations on the new rig! We wish you many happy and safe camping hours. FYI we have a standard pinbox and hitch and have no chucking issues with the Big Country (knock on wood). It tows great! If you haven't purchased your hitch yet the upgraded ones are really nice and as JohnDar...

I can navigate around a little bit but it is still very slow...ala Commodore 64! They will get it fixed...hang in there! Hey...remember the Pong games?

We did the foam thing too! We ended up with some water damage (wrinkles) in the lower front bulkhead...not worth fixing at the moment but it does bug me since I like to keep things looking new!

I can't get to any new pages...stuck here!

Thanks...it's nice to know it is not just our location/computer!

Anyone else having trouble loading the forum site? A couple days ago it started taking an unusual amount of time to get the forum online. All other sites I visit work fine it is just the HOF that apparently my computer does not like. Any ideas?

Re: BIG Country-BIG MISTAKE I am certainly sorry to hear of your situation. Not that it is of any consequence for you but I do believe it to be the exception and not the rule. Our Big Country has had some issues but we have overall been very pleased with the product. If you haven't done so...

Not sure which model Jensen is in the 2009 rigs but if it looks like this one, I circled the three buttons that control the speakers. In our Big Country A is the living area, B is the bedroom and C are the outside speakers. You can select just one area or any combination.

I have a stock pin box and the bottom holes do not have bolts...nor would it make any difference if it did as they would be securing nothing that I can see. Could it be an adjustment hole for repositioning the pin box?

Awesome! Congratulations...always nice to get a new toy! Also consider the Pacific Regional Rally in Canyonville Oregon Aug 10-12. Best Wishes!

I would tend to agree with those that suggest hiring someone to tow it for you. We hired an agent to deliver our rig from Ohio to Washington state for around $3000. If you have no real need for continued use of a truck it seems you could better spend that money elsewhere! One thing about the gas...

Many people have a difficult time finding the "right" dealer with a quality service department. Have you returned your rig to the repair facility to give them the opportunity to "make it right?" As Dave mentioned, many RVers, myself included, prefer to do the repairs we can ourselves. Gives us...

I was able to get a complete schematic of all the Big Country graphics from this nice lady... Brenda Rock (Brenda.Rock@heartlandrvs.com) Heartland Parts 877 262 8032 ext 1137 She was extremely helpful!

Congratulations! The 3450 is a very comfortable floorplan. AnaLyn and I really enjoy it and are happy with the choice. It tows great too! PM me if you have any specific questions! Best Wishes!

Congratulations on the new rig...you will love the Big Country. Not to worry...they tow so well you must be careful to remember it's behind you! :) I sent you a PM with some information about weights etc of our set-up. Maybe it will be helpful! Best Wishes! Edit...I guess I can't send you a PM...

Not sure exactly which slide out you have but HERE are the Lippert Manuals. Best Wishes!

That makes at least two WA Chapter members...I guess I better send them another friendly "nudge"! Looking forward to seeing you all in August!

Hello! I see you are from WA state! That makes us "neighbors." Others have already answered your questions but if you have any others about the Big Country coach, please PM me. We have had ours for a couple years now and really enjoy it. I can also share some information regarding our purchase...

It was just my feeble attempt at humor having read another post about dealers not doing any work on "stuff" they didn't sell. Didn't mean for anyone to take it seriously! I too have a tire guy willing to put whatever I bring him on my rigs.

Ah yes...but the local installer may not do the work or will probably put you on the end of the job list! :D ( Sorry, couldn't resist)

Hello! Congratulations on the new rig! You will have many great adventures with that Elkridge. Be sure to look for a Heartland Owners Club Chapter near your location. Lots of fun and lots of available information/experience. Best Wishes!

Here is my brand new Goodyear Marathon (previous rig) with only 400 miles on it! It was a 15 inch D rated. Marathons were manufactured in the USA for many years and then moved to China. Some were even made in Canada I think. But...I would definietly take the Maxxis over the Marathon!
