thanks for the info

Our 2009 Bighorn has the fw drain that hangs down a couple of inches below the belly. It is a real pain to reach for people that can't get down on their knees. Has anyone added an extension to the drain and if so, how did you do it and how does it work? Thanks for info.

Thanks everyone for the info. We had lubricated the landing gears but still had trouble. We ordered the 10,000 lb. two motor Bulldog jacks and they arrived yesterday. Haven't installed them yet but hope that this works well.

I think that the landing gear is sized by pounds of lift. We think that ours is a Venture and probably 5000 or 6000lbs. but Heartland couldn't tell us. We have replaced the gears in it a couple of times and we think that we need heavier landing jacks but would like to know what size ours are so...

Can anyone tell what size the landing gear jacks are on a 2009 Bighorn 3055? I called customer service but they said that they didn't have info back that far. I think they are probably Lippert jacks.

We have the two canister system with the regulator. We checked that out and it doesn't seem to be the problem. Thanks Odie and Janice

We did check the winterization levers and they are all in the normal position. Thanks for the idea though. Many heads are better than two old ones.

We will check the intake screen and also the pump screen. I did take the screen off of the kitchen sink and soaked the whole head in white vinegar and then washed it out. The results did not improve. We will also look for the kinked hose. Thanks so much for the ideas.

we have a 2009 Bighorn 3055. We have not had water pressure problems before but are now on a 2 month trip and the water pressure is pathetic. It is poor whether we are on city water connection or pumping from the tank. We are also getting a lot of air through the faucets and shower head. Any...

Freckles, thanks for the info.

We have a stand alone generator that we occassionally use with our Bighorn. The house batteries never seem to take a good charge with the generator but do with the truck connection or 110 at home. We are thinking about buying new quiet Honda generator. Is there something extra that we need to...

great modifications! What did you use to cover the big hole in the water connection compartment? We have had mice climb up the water hose and into the storage bin through this hole. j davidson ojd@yahoo.com

Get those Goodyears!! We ordered a 2009 3055 Feb. 2008. We had the Goodyear G614s put on at the factory and also had the 7000 lb. axels put on instead of the standard 6000 lb. ones. We traveled Canada and Alaska last summer, over 15,000 miles and the only tire trouble we had was a screw in one...

Thanks for all of your thoughts on the front end problem. We talked to someone at Heartland today. He said that he would contact our dealer and work with them on the problem. Hope we can get it resolved. We'll keep you posted on how this turns out. We do think that it is frame related. Anymore...

:confused:We have a 2009 Bighorn 3055. When the front landing jacks are down, the front end looks fine but when the trailer is loaded and sitting on the pickup the underside of the front end and the front sidewalls have a gap of 1/2 to 3/4 inch. The caulk seal in this area is broken. The trailer...

Don't know if this is feasible or not but after spending the past 3 1/2 months in our 2009 3055 Bighorn one thing that would be helpful is a skylight in the kitchen similar to the shower skylight. We boondock quite a bit and on cloudy days the kitchen work area tends to be pretty dark. I have...

We finally have our new Big Horn 3055 sitting our driveway! We have spent over a year looking at 5th wheel trailers and the Big Horn was "the pick of the litter". We ordered our 2009 3055 early in Feb. and it arrived at the dealer in Nebraska in late March. We spent three days in the unit near...

3055 on order :)We finally placed an order for a 2009 3055 Bighorn! Yea! We did get the aluminum rims and were able to order the 7000 lb. axles with the G614 Goodyear tires from the factory. We are having the Carefree of Colorado slide toppers added at the dealer and also the Fifth Airbourne...

Thanks so much for all of your replies. We hope to order this week. The Davidsons Kansas

We are very seriously considering the 3055. Some questions for you folks. A dealer told us that the Michelin XPS ribs would rub when the Equi-Flex system flexes. Anyone know about that? Does anyone know what the advantage of Aluminum wheels over regular wheels is? If you have the slide toppers...

Bighorn w/2500 TV I see by your signature that you are pulling the 3400 with a Chevy 2500 Diesel. Do you feel that the TV is enough for the RV? We are looking at the same.

Since you have had your Bighorn for awhile now, what do you think? We are seriously thinking about buying a Bighorn from Lakeshore. We are in Kansas, but for the $ it looks like it be worth the trip. Not many Heartland dealers in our area.
