Thought it would be easier to start a different thread since my first one never really answered my question. When it rains, I have a leak which comes out of the porch light above the door (dry above the door) and on the top of the door frame inside the trailer. Pulled the inside trim above the...

I have a 202 4007 and I have a weird leak when it rains. I'm wondering if anyone else had this leak and where I should start looking on the roof or maybe along the awning where it mounts. When it rains, and with the awning out even, water comes out of the bottom of the porch light which is...

I haven't posted in a while. I have a 20/20 Cyclone 4007. Shortly after I bought the trailer, one of the LED ceiling lights started to flicker in the bedroom. I pulled it down to check to see if there was any visible reason it was doing it. It looks like maybe the PC board or a bad solder joint...

Hi all. Been a while since I was here. Not sure if my signature is current (or if it still shows up) but I have a 2020 4007 and my insurance through Farmers is of the hook. Unfortunately am single now and Veronika did all the bill paying. I just worked and gave her the checks so I never knew how...

Have a 2020 4007. Using it more for out of town work than recreation. Want to install a washer/dryer. Questions. 1. What brands do you recommend? Combo washer/dryer or separate stackable? 2. Did you install a pan and if so where does it drain? 3. I see a sticker on the wall for a dryer vent...

Hi fellow Cycloners. (Is that a word? Stategery?) Been a while since I last posted and browsed so I thought I would check in and show off my new dually conversion/toter bed. It turned out much better than I expected. A little recap, we traded in our 3611 at the end of last year for the 4007...

Hoping someone can give me the measurements on the king mattress in the 4007. I'm sure it's the same as the other models. The trailer is 3 hours away and I forgot to measure. Want to take a new matress back up with me. I believe it is RV king but really want numbers to be sure. Sent from my...

Anyone else have the same family as us? In the 2 years we had our 3611 we never changed the pictures and our new Cyclone has the same pictures. We are gonna name them and come up with stories for the pictures.....

Our new rig (4007) has 2 waste drains and 5 push/pull valves. Our 3611 had 2 drains but 1 valve in the back and 2 in the front. Only thing we needed to figure out was which of the fronts was black and which was grey. The 4007 has 2 in the rear so I am assuming 2 separate tanks (black and grey)...

I finally got the new 4007 out for a shakedown to find any issues and fix them and to make a list of those things that the dealer will fix. So far so good. I am driving a truck working the fire cleanup in Sonoma and Napa counties in Northern California. I live about 2 1/2 hours away so this is a...

I am posting this in the general section because I'm hoping for a quick answer. We are going to pick up our new 4007 and trading in our 2017 1611. Of course the main slide stops working while it was closing. It is stuck at about one and a 1/2 feet out. The pump spins fir a few seconds and then...

So my 4007 that I pick up this week is a little over 3 feet longer than my 3611 we are trading in but is only 1295 lbs heavier and the hitch weight is only 280 lbs heavier. Anyone know where they shave the weight from? More aluminium. I realize the extra length is in the longer garage but I...

Hi All! Been a little while since I posted here but I thought I would update for anyone who remembers all my complaining about the 3611 the insurance company bought to replace our 300C (Loved that rig) that burned. Short recap, we really had no choice on the model except to be cashed out (I...

Been a while since I posted. Is anyone here pulling their 5th wheel with a truck converter dolly? I am going to help out a buddy and drive his 10 wheeler dump part time at the Paradise fire clean up. It’s a little too far for me to drive back and forth (140 miles) so I am considering getting a...

This field does not recognize anything I copy and paste from word or Notepad. It's too long to retype. I am attaching the message as a Word Doc. - - - Updated - - - Maybe as a response? Just came back from a trip to a park 50 miles from us. Stayed there a week. Trailer is a 2017 3611...

Hi all. Been a little while since I posted. Trying to enjoy our 3611 but this is only the third trip since we bought it in April 2017. Been in the shop almost the whole time but that is another story..... Last weekend I hauled my family, dogs and my Harley to our favorite campground just north...

Has anyone here downsized their bed to a queen? We took delivery of our new 3600 which is an insurance replacement for a 2013 300C that unfortunately had a fire and was totaled due to the rear damage and smoke damage. The 300C was perfect for us and the bedroom was roomy and has lots of space...

Picked up my 3611 last weekend. It was an insurance replacement for our 2013 300C that unfortunately had a fire. What equipment beside the power cable and rear steps should be with the unit?

Anyone mounted chocks in a 3611 with an 11' garage? Ours is being delivered this week. Is replacing our 300C that had a 10' garage that was totaled after a fire. On the 300C I had to drop the fuel tank to mount the chocks. Does anyone know if I need to drop the tank on the 3611 or is there access?

Our new 3611 is being delivered this week to the local dealer (La Mesa RV in Davis, CA) and I learned my lesson with the 300C about letting them schedule the inspection. We picked it up on a Friday before a holiday at 3 pm. They were closing in an hour and wanted us out. No big deal as this was...

Got word today from the insurance agent that they are most likely going to total our Cyclone. Really love that trailer but we have replacement insurance so they will cover the difference to replace it with a 2017 model. The fire damage to the roof and the smoke damage inside is putting the...

2013 300C – It’s been a while since I posted anything here. I posted a different issue in the Cyclone garage section as well as the plumbing section. I have scoured through the hydraulic posts and my issue is not uncommon though I have a little more detail that I couldn't find. Basically since...

2013 300C – It’s been a while since I posted anything here. I posted a different issue in the Cyclone garage section also. Basically the issue is the shower does not drain unless you use your foot or a plunger to force water to flow. Once it starts draining it is fine until it is empty then...

2013 300C – It’s been a while since I posted anything here. A recent event has me motivated to finally address some issues we have had since it was new but not enough of an issue to drag it to the nearest repair facility. As for the event, someone threw a cigarette in a garbage toter that was...

I'm not sure that this is in the correct section. Please feel free to move it if necessary. I have questions about the freshwater plumbing on my 2013 300C. With all of the trailers I have owned in the past I would fill the fresh water until water started to come out of the vent above the fill. I...

Hoping someone can give me some suggestions on unplugging the black tank. Our last trip was in January. We went from Northern CA to Texas and back, about 2 weeks. Our gauge for the black tank has never been accurate and the last dump it said it was 2/3rds but not much came out. I figured it was...

Not sure where to post this so feel free to move it to the correct area. We are currently on our way back to California from West Texas and have stopped in Van Horn Texas. We have a severe draft coming from the couch area. We felt it before but it wasn't 28 degrees before. Supposed to get into...

I have been fervently searching posts on the heartland and Cyclone boards. I have a few items but the main one is the tire blowout that caused damage. First, if you have Towmax tires, get rid of them. I wish I had. I have a 2013 300c that I bought in June 2013. When I first bought the rig I...

We'll I should have been more on the ball about junking the Towmax tires on my 2013 Cyclone. We are on a trip from Northern Ca to San Angelo Tx and 30 miles west of Van Horn on I10 (middle of nowhere) had a blow out. Lost some sheet metal and killed the rim. Of course there was no cell service...

So I finally installed a TS-Performance 6 position chip and a set of Auto-Meter guages (Boost, EGT, Trans Temp). What a difference. put it on +75 hp empty and romped on it. About tore my head off. Makes a big difference in fuel mileage also. Even when pulling my 9 foot utility trailer loaded...

We have a 2013 Cyclone 300c. The vacuum works great for picking up the dirt that we sweep into it but doesn't turn on when we plug in the hose. Is there a switch? Looking at the opening and the end of the hose it appears it would come on as soon as the 2 contacts are in contact with the metal...

I recently purchased a Cyclone 300C and as a result upgraded to a Class A noncommercial to be legal. The only restriction listed is 71 "Class A restricted to towing single trailer coaches only, not for compensation - not valid for Class B vehicles". I expected it to show the Autotrans...

Hello all!! I read somewhere here (can't find it now) that all the rigs are weighed at the factory to show the actual dry weight. Where do I find that number? It's not on the Factory plate on the outside. Thanks, Martin

I have a 2003 F350 with the 7.3 Powerstroke. Besides airbags and a 2004 rear-end, it is stock. I am thinking about chipping it to give me a little more umph when I am pulling the 5th wheel. Looking online it seems like there are about a thousand different brands and a thousand reputable sources...

Well I discovered something very interesting today and thought I would share. First a little foundation so this makes since. I am a long time RVer and like to take 3 day to 14 day trips with the family. This month I traded our 32' Cougar for a Cyclone 300C ti so we could haul the Harley and have...

We took our new 300c out for its maiden trip. Have a problem with the garage beds (posted in the garage section) but found a couple of things inside. The hinges need some adjustments (will do that myself), and the shower glass door has a slow leak (a little clear silicone will stop it) but my...

Took our 2013 CY 300c out for the first trip. We unloaded the Harley and set up camp. I lowered the bottom bed to set it up and the fold down support legs are 3 inches off of the floor. It appears the rails on the wall are mounted too high. I used leveling blocks but am going to take it back...

I'm not sure whe this would be better placed so I am putting it in general discussions. We are on our maiden voyage in our 2013 CY 300 and are loving it. We loved our Cougar but being able to take the Harley with us and the back porch are wonderful. Anyway I digress..Does this rig have an...

We picked up our 300C yesterday. First thing we noticed is that compared to our 32' foot 05 Cougar, this is huge!!! Love It!!! When we bought it it did look a little smaller sitting in between two 44' Cyclones... A little heavier but towed great on the way home (about an hour away). With that...

I pick up my 300c Ti on Friday. I am installing motorcycle chocks and from what I have researched, I will need to lower and/or remove one or both of the fuel tanks before drilling through the floor for the install bolts and fender washers. I have yet to crawl under the beast and was wondering if...
