When I unhooked the seven pin hitch connection the other day, it really started to rain and got distracted. Drove off and pulled out the emergency brake pin from the hitch unit. It seemed fine and I replaced it and it looks like before. I am wondering if just replacing it in its socket is...

Have been considering staying several months to a year in an RV park and moving the RV only perhaps a month or two each year to another static location and then back again for another lengthly stay at the RV park. Wondering if there are any "rules of thumb" or recommendations from the factory...

We have recently starting staying at an rv park in northern ga that is rather remote. We were getting a few channels with our on-board antenna (2008 big horn 3055 rl) but we started keeping in an rv port and reception is hindered by the steel partial enclosure. We think that getting an...

We have decided to store our bighorn in the south during the seasons when we are not traveling rather than tow it up and down the east coast with the price of diesel and the wear & tear on both us and the unit. The storage place has both a cover and electric available. Our questions are: would...

We are going to be traveling down the east coast soon, dry camping in the evenings each day for about a week. I was wondering how much the batteries will be charged from running 5 to 7 hours each day and if they will charge sufficiently to run most of the things we would be using in the...

Not sure of the best place to ask this question! My daughter wants us to stay in her driveway when we go down to GA this winter for a visit. We are not sure we could get the Bighorn (3055 RL being pulled by Dodge truck) into the drive without going into the neighbors yard across the street...

about 4 months ago (mid to late July, I think) there was a post where someone had put in a water manifold in their utility compartment. I have tried several searches and have not been able to find it again - I guess I'm not using the right combination of words. Does anyone remember what thread...

I have decided to go ahead and temporaryly winterize before our first real trip in Jan. to the south. Just want to double check my procedures. There are two low water points on the door side of my big horn 3055 - cold and hot water lines I think - drain those. On the off door side there is...

When I picked up the unit I pulled it back home very carefully and did not notice anything regarding the brakes (had never pulled 5th wheel before). I did not really have any problem stopping but did not have to do any unusual maneuvers. I had a Hensley Tru control brake controller installed...

Picked up a new 3055 RL a couple of weeks ago and while going through air duct cleaning today took off the register in the front storage bay and found that there was no duct work coming to the register from the furnace. Did it just get left off and should have been there? If so, I need to...

I took off all of the heat & air conditioner registers today to clean them out if needed and check to make sure all were open and not blocked in any way. Most were pretty good - a few upturned pieces of alum. tape which I put down and a few places to add additional alum. duct tape and a little...

Was looking around ulnit yesterday evening while doing a few "maintainance" projects trying to get unit ready for a real shakedown trip and looked inside the air return grill beneath the refrig. Is there supposed to be any type of filter behing the grill to filter return air before going to the...

The water pressure seems a little weak in our new 3055 rl and have been considering a pump upgrade. Has anyone done this? I think I saw where the landmarks come with a sureflo extreme 5.7 as standard?? I was looking at camping world and they have 2 sureflo extremes - 4.0 and 5.7 and they...

When I picked up the 2008 3055 rl recently, I noticed it had Unicorn express tires which must be something new as from reading all the posts on tires over the past month or so while I was waiting for my unit to come in, I had not seen any mention of this brand. The trip from the dealer was...

It looks like a rash of new 3055 rl's being picked up at the end of Aug. We picked ours up a week ago and until I had things together at home stored it for a week. Brought it home last night. PDI at dealer's went pretty well and only a couple of small things and one big - a leak in the fresh...

are the electric rear stabilizers on the 12v system or the 120 v system? Just wondering how they are set up.

anybody done any power mods to dodge diesel for towing? Which ones have you used and did you find they were satisfactory? Have had suggestions from several that banks, quadzilla and edge made products that have a reputation as being very helpful for additional safe power when towing...

Was talking with dealer over the weekend and one of his guys told me that when you hook up the big horn's 50 amp cord to a 30 amp (through an adaptor of course) you will lose power in some of the items in the coach as only one leg will be powered and whatever is hooked to the non powered leg...

I am scheduled to pick up my 3055 RL Bighorn in a couple of weeks and my children surprised me with a birthday gift of a 3 camera backup camera system. In looking on the forum, there was a good description of a suggested way to run the camera wire from the rearmost camera at the back to the...

We are waiting for trailer to arrive at dealers and have been thinking about things we need. One item I was wondering about (along with many others) is whether or not to have an extra 7 pin connecter put in the truck bed? We have one on the bumper (dodge diesel - 2004) but wonder if it is...

What is the length of the patio awning on a Bighorn 3055 and what brand and model is being used on the 2008's. Wondering if it could easily be converted to a power awning with one of the Carefree arm upgrades or if that would be a waste of time and money as existing awning works just fine...

Is the Bighorn 3055 RL in the standard configuration as it comes from the factory set up to be pulled level by a dodge 4x4 or is there some changes that need to be made -- by the factory when being built? -- by the dealer at delivery? --- not at all? And, if so what needs to be done? I have...

I did a search of the threads and found there were a few weights given on one post but a follow-up question on the weights of other options did not appear to be answered as far as I can find. It would be really useful for many I think to have the weight of the remaining various options so that...

What is the biggest value of this option and how much would weight would it add to a 3055 rl unit?

Is the placement of the actual attachment point of the trail air pin even with the front of the coach or is it a little in front of the coach sort of like an extended pin box?

To Bighorn staff: What is the policy of Big Horn regarding the weight sticker inside the cabinet? Is each unit weighed upon completition and the actual weight of that unit with its options included put on the sticker or is it an average of some number of units of that model upon completition...

Wondering what the finished dimentions are on the front storage cabinet are when the generator prep is ordered and what is actually included in the "generator prep"? Also is there a ventilated door added on the regular door?

To Heartland engineering: In light of the fact that there have been several cases of narrowly averted serious accidents with the placement of the gas line in the wheel well, has there been any thought to moving it to a safer place or putting some kind of stronger protective shroud around it...
