Never even realized there was this option. With $900 spent already and all new, it'll be awhile before I tackle this again. Thanks for your thoughts.

Thanks for your thoughts. Heartland built these with 1/2" flake board laying on two steel angle braces with a steel strip connecting to keep the angle steel from spreading. That way the bottoms of the tanks are flat and above the drain configuration. Simply using a stronger brace would solve...

Found my tanks are bowed because of collapsed frame supports. Black junk in water since you can't drain them completely. What's the best way to purify the whole thing?

Filled my tanks for a trip. Water started dripping from 2 screws that were protruding from insulation cover. Finally decided to cut cover so I could inspect. Made it a point to follow along a cross support so it'd be easier to seal with Gorilla tape afterwards. Flimsy cross supports that hold...

Been complaining of poor braking since way back. 2012 35' Cyclone with about 11,000 miles. Finally decided to replace brake assemblies on one axle to see what would happen. Bought brake assemblies and drums from Redneck Trailers, Lincolnton, NC $488. That was a mess with wrong parts. Then...

Jerry at customer service - couldn't ask for better expertise, communicating, attitude. Problem was fan didn't run but lid opened. Did some volt checks and determined the speed sensor was bad. First thought was the button switch on roof but I'd already checked that. He stressed that simply...

David Switalski at Dexter. I don't know how to upload the pdf he sent me with the part nos. and breakdown for my 7,000# axles but could copy to a needy soul. Also, lubricant and distributors list. I wanted to find hub seals BEFORE removing to inspect, rather than tear up a seal and not be able...

How do I know what capacity axles I have? And what kind/brand of brakes? Thanks

Adjusted? Need to learn about that. Haven't removed the wheels to inspect yet. Wouldn't seem like enough miles to warrant wear and replacement. Still, I can remember how that emergency switch cable got tangled up in the fifth wheel couple times turning the brakes on but not enough to really work...

Brakes simply don't do much for stopping. Need ideas on how to improve them. Next, the fuel pump finally quit. Read a long time ago that the impeller could be fouled up by ethanol gas. About to leave on big trip and have to get this repaired or replaced. Need ideas. Thanks!!

Trying to set up cables/chains in a factory similar manner for tailgate. Surprising how hard it is to find brackets for the gate. Have been looping chains over locking bars and 2x4s across gate edge. Works but more inconvenient.

Got two Wheeldocks for our Harleys including straps($$$). Not cheap!($574.50) But work awesome.

TireRack.com has an extensive inventory and research articles. The "80" only has a Goodyear Marathon and Power King Towmax. But listed under "85" you get a ton of Light Truck (LT) to choose from. Someone's Forum signature profile included "G614 tires" which I guess is 14 ply 16" Goodyears - that...

Can you recall the exact part number? And thanks for the follow up. Tom

FWIW - Add me to the list. RV Outlet repaired under warranty. Happens again, I'll have to. They were always great but 3.5 hours away. Definitely didn't buy an RV to spend my time as a carpenter, plumber, electrician, propane tech, antennae tech, HVAC tech, or water leak specialist. How do people...

Was this pump something you purchased separately? Where? I asked the same of the fellow re the solenoid. Thanks. Tom

Where did you find a solenoid? How much? This would be my first choice.

See the critical thing is that I have a Short Bed F350. That means that from the rearmost rib of the front bed wall to the start of my hitch mount is 21.5". Then if you go all the way even with the bed rails you have to subtract another 1.5" for the front lip at the top (They don't notch the...

May 15 to July 7 (maybe longer and CA). Concerned with the stories about rocks, windshield, etc. Do I need mud flaps? Grill guard? Some of the ALCAN seems to drop to 10mph and frost heaves. What's a good miles/day or miles/hour average? Cassiar Hwy ore trucks; the Klondike to Skagway; or the...

About to finally decide on a RDS model 71804, 32 gallon. This F350 crew cab, SB, has restrictive clearances between bed/Reese mount and from side to side (54" to where walls start rising). Definitely open to advice and opinions as to brand and just auxiliary in general. A particular concern is...

Appreciate your response. And we went with the 3010 very specifically because of so many public parks with smaller spaces. Larger models were very tempting. Seems no matter how new you buy there's always new ideas coming for delivery next week. Definitely will be adding some sort of light and...

Just got 2012 3010 HD Edition 1. Totally wasted space on left beside door under counter. RV's used a waste can opening in counter for this spot. 2. LUCKILY I asked dealer smgr. about winterizing specifics. Contrary to "winterization" valve, you have to remove convenience center screws plus two...
