    Bighorn - Portable Generator Hookup

    DougS, I'm waiting for the factory to tell me by vin if the trailer was 'gen prepped'. I don't see a junction bow but I do see three #6 gauge wires capped off just waiting to be connected to something. You wouldn't happen to be able to send a picture or your hook up? RichPal

    Replacement Electric Brakes

    I own a 2009 Bighorn 3055RL. I want to replace the electric brakes. Which brand should I go with and self-adjustable or manual adjustable? If we traveled more than I would go with the Kodiak Disc brake system. I choose not to go that way. I'll be satisfied with the best electric brake system.

    Adding second AC unit, is this a DIY upgrade?

    Living and traveling in south Texas a second A/C is recommended. I own a 2009 3055RL. I'm looking at different a/c units to add. It was recommended to go with low profile units. I've found out that most units used were regular profile (10-14"). Low profile are much more. I've got an option to...

    Battery Life

    I own a 2009 Bighorn 3055 and I have the convenience of parking if 15 ft from my house on a paved pad. I keep it plugged in 24/7. Is this bad for the battery? I heard that if I had a Smart(?) converter it wouldn't hurt the battery because it would basically "tricle charge". Does the Bighorn have...

    3055RL Operation help for new owner

    Now that I found the spare tire crank, I can't figure out how to lower the tire. It seems that the slotted crank is the same diameter as the lowering shaft with the two pins on it. They will not connect to lower the spare. I might be missing a piece that joins the two together. Anybody help me out?
