I had the same problem with slide in Big Horn. The slide was cocked. What I found was a 5 inch crack in I beam right above rear shackle. I brought it to Elkhart and Lippert repaired it out of warranty.
I dealt with Mel Jones at Lippert. He said he would make it right and he did. He did the right...
Bill putting in new screws how did you manage putting pressure on screws with limited room. Did you get new top rollers from lippert or somewhere else?
Thanks for the help

Bad end to beautiful week went to close slide and found it didn't close all the way. The reason tore up floor. Moved slide out and one of the rollers fell out from bottom of slide. Was able to close slide and get home. It's always something!!:(:(
Re: Bighorn MSRP FBP
Well in 2014 I bought my Big Horn and the did offer FBP was disappointed I said my next Big Horn would have it and now they did away with it as option. Why it doesn't cost them to offer it. Would not go up to Landmark to much money. Hopefully when ready to buy new Big Horn...
Thanks for the advice. I will look into both items below. Unfortunately I can't open slide in my driveway. So I will look into these the next time we go out. At least it's a place to start thanks Dennis
Kitchen slide when I go to close it seems like bottom front corner hangs up then it gives way and closes fine slide looks straight. Has anyone had this problem. ?
Thanks

Re: Bent and cracked frame(Update)
Was arranging for Lipper come to me in Florida but they couldn't make it for a week. Got local welder to do temp fix. Went to pick camper up from him and couldn't close slide. Finally got it closed and off to Elkhart so Lippert can fix frame. Hopefully we make...
Re: Bent and cracked frame
This unit is a 2015 Big Horn 3160. I think that when Lippert rewelded spring hangers they weakened rail. Unfortunately I probably have to wait for Tuesday because they might be closed on Monday holiday
On trip to Florida my door side slide on big horn was jammed on top back corner. Called heartland to notify them since they fixed broken weld in that wall last year. Also Lippert rewelded spring hangers because weld was broken. I was able to adjust slide so it would open. Then decided to...
Carl welcome to the club I just left Elkhart where heartland fixed my crack at the same location. They found a broken weld fixed it resupported it did body work drove 1250 miles to Florida and look up and the crack is back. Not very happy. I am currently working with Darrel at the service center...
Well back at service center to pick up my camper. Well everything is fixed. The tracking problem lip pert found a broken weld on a spring hanger. They took off axles and rewelded all spring hangers and replaced all bolts on suspension and replaced shocks. The people at the service center did a...
Chiefneon I wonder why they said that. I know they made me bring it to 2 repair places locally and they both said they wouldnt work on it because it was structural. Then they gave me the ok to make an appointment
Darryl from service center reviewed my problems and resolutions. Turns out I have a broken weld in sidewall which they will fix that and other problems. Lip pert will come on Thursday resolve axle spacing/tracking issue. The repairs will be done early next week. My camper is going to be 2 years...

Re: ATF: Bighorn - Top slide gasket sliding out
I checked there is nothing sticky on the slide .
- - - Updated - - -
I do believe there is something to do with an adjustment. Not sure if it needs to close tighter or be a little looser. I was hoping to hear from someone that might of had the...
I have a problem where the top gasket on slides(D shaped) travels out while going down the road. Some time it's 2 inches some time it 4 ft. I tried putting screw and washer on each end but it rips out of screw. The gasket has been replaced 2 times once by me and once by an RV place. Also the up...
I have a 2015 Big Horn 3160 which has the 3door clear shower doors. Was wondering if anybody replaced doors with frosted glass and where you got them from.
thanks

Yes the plastic big cover that has the filter in it. You have to take down the hole plastic cover not the area where filter is the whole cover. Then where the movable vents that divert air from ducts to living room you close them and tape over it from the back side. You won't be able to open...
Found out if you take ac cover off in living room and tape over vents that divert air to living room that makes it maybe 15 percent quieter. It makes it bare ablebare able
Sengli, I do set the stat to auto doesn't seem to make a difference. Don from Heartland called me and said he would check to see iff he can find out what decibel reading should be and also if new quiet cool a/c can be retrofitted in.
