    Totally Frustrated

    My 7,000# axles on my BH have an eight lug pattern. Chuck

    Interesting tire recall

    My Trail America tires do not say "made in China", but rather "designed in Japan". The DOT does indicate that they are indeed made in China, however. I will no doubt change to Goodyear GST 614s when it is time to replace them, but I have had no trouble with the set I have which now have about...

    Bighorn featured in July Midwest RV Traveler

    Checked into Countryside Campground in Harrison MI and was handed a complimentary copy of Woodall's Midwest RV Traveler for July 2007. The featured vehicle for the month is the 2008 Heartland Bighorn. If you get a chance, pick up a copy and look at the article on page 12. Heartland's Tom...

    Trailair pinbox with Firestone airbags overkill??

    At the 2006 Rally, I talked with the TrailAir representative who mentioned the "new" pin box that was supposed to handle both the chucking and the up and down travel, but when the latest one came out, it only handled the chucking. I have the older model that handles the up and down. Will there...

    Broken Black water tank valve

    jayc I had the same problem in Florida and found a workaround until I had it repaired at the Rally. When the cable is no longer tight in the handle, you can use a wrench where the valve comes through the panel and unscrew the fitting (about 1 inch long). This will allow you to pull enough of...

    Tires on New Sundance 2900MK

    Forrest, the links on this post did work. Thanks. However, I can't find 1N on either list. The second one has no codes that begin with a number. Is this list compiled from manufacturers that have had tire recalls only? I hope not as Goodyear and Michelin are on the list. The reason I was...

    Tires on New Sundance 2900MK

    Forrest, when I click on the link that shows all manufacturers, I get an "unspecified error" on Internet Explorer. Do you get the same results?

    Big Horns in MI

    Don, did you go to the state park or a private cg in Petosky. We've had ours back in storage since we returned from the rally, but plan to go to Sterling SP for the 4th.

    Headed to Wisconsin Dells

    Jim, that 5er always tows like its not even there, regardless of where I take it - although I have not been in any hills to speak of yet. Of course corners in towns and getting in and out of fuel stations is sometimes a bit tricky. The route to the Keys is good, not at all narrow. Actually...

    Headed to Wisconsin Dells

    $50/night does not sound that bad to me. We paid almost $130/night at Boyd's Key West CG in Key West FL in 2006, but didn't have much choice as it was on our "must visit" list. Thought of parking it and driving down and using a hotel until we found out what those rates were charging. Probably...

    Post Rally Feedback - Lady Drivers (backing/driving session)

    Saundra really enjoyed the class and told me that I should have attended it as well. So, in 2009, I will sign up for it.

    1 project finished

    My 2006 unit was built in July of 2005 and has hot/cold faucets in the UDC that controls the temperature of the shower on either side of the trailer (there is a quick connect port at the faucet and on the door side of the trailer).

    Mini Heartland Rally in Elkhart.

    Glad the mini rally went well for you. It's nice to have everything in good working order. Have a nice stay in the UP. Indian Lake is beautiful. Kitchitikipi is near there - make sure you see it. Fayette SP is quite interesting as well. If you like state parks and are going west, Lake...

    Misc. Wheels, Tires and Axle Discussions

    Same comment as on previous post - I don't think this should be done. Tires on a TV are different in design than those for a trailer or 5er.

    Replaced Tires And Wheels

    I would not recommend that. Tires from a TV are not the same as tires for a trailer or 5er.

    Rally Service Work Feedback

    We had RSI and Holmes on Wheels and then Lippert and all service was performed well (much better than LSI last year). No foul language was observed. Good thing that I was not servicing units. I thought foul language was one of the tools to make things work:D .
