    Oh, to add to these frame cracks, when I had my trailer at the place that found the cracks there was another trailer that came in that had cracks that were ten times worse then mine. He got his fixed as he was just under warrenty, how I don't know. So, there is a real problem out there and...

    Cracked Frame

    I welded the cracks up then grided smooth. Then, cut the tiny supports they had over the handers off. Had a sheet of steel cut to fit inside the frame I beam from top to bottm. It was best to cut the sheet into 1 1/2' to 2' sections to get them in. Welded top, bottom, and sides of these sections...

    Cracked Frame

    There was no support welded on the inside. The crack was two inchs up from the bottom of the frame where the hangs are located above all of them on both sides. This happens when you make turns or go into corners while driving down roads. If all roads were a staight line this would never happen...

    Cracked Frame

    Yes, I had to fix this my self, As no one would stand behind anything. This is a sad thing since there is a real problem here with the frame. Poorly made, no support and not thought out when designed. But hay, You buy the trailer and get bent over when a real problem comes up. Meaning the best...

    Mite be true if I owned it about four years from what you are saying but, I bought this trailer and a one and 1/2 years later this happens. Lippert has a two year warranty on the frame and there using date of manufacture. So, trailer is built sits on Heartlands lot for X amont of months then...

    Cracked Frame

    Yes, the tread is different. The tires that came with the trailer were "D" rated max 65psi and I replace them with "E" rated tire 80 psi and high load rating. And yes, they are a trailer tire not any thing else you may think they are. So, no the tires have not a thing to do with what is going on.

    Cracked Frame

    Lippert, they said out of warranty (Trailer was manufactured in 06) They have a two year warranty and will not cover it. On a side note they did say they would pay for half. Using there tech to come fix the trailer and my half was $1000.00. This is to fix there frame that has only been used...

    Cracked Frame

    Yes, I have a good idea. The hangers on the trailer has adjustable holes, I put mine in the last hole to raise the trailer up for my truck. Now what happens is you lengthen the pivot point plus with the tall frame that is thin causing the frame to flix. Also, add the wieght of the trailer. They...

    Cracked Frame

    Yea, it would be nice if Heartland stepped up and fixed there problem. But, they flat out said that it is not there frame so it is not there problem and that I would have to call Lippert to get it fixed. I have not said a thing for the last four months that I have been dealing with this problem...

    Cracked Frame

    Yes, it looks like the paint is cracked but, when you look in person you can see the cracks. After this picture was taking the paint was taking off and heated up. You could whatch the crack grow. Also, the crack was found by a buiness I had some repairs done at. They are very good at what they do.

    3950 Cyclone Weight-Wow

    The Chevy trucks ride a little high in the rear and you need to raise the front to make the truck level for the larger tire to fit. That is why Cognito makes a level kit for the front only.

    3950 Cyclone Weight-Wow

    The only thing he needs to do is one of two things on the front only: 1. Tightening the torsion bars to raise the front end. Draw back makes the front end ride a little rough but, not bad and the cost is cheap - front end aliment 2. Get a cognito kit for the front end. This will leave the...

    3950 Cyclone Weight-Wow

    You need to talk to other people other then Schwab Stores. If you look under your truck you will see the U joint does not move when you change tire size the drive axle moves. So, get as far away from this so called tire shop as possible. They have no clue what they are talking about. If you...

    Fuel Tank Cap.

    OK, got the trailer from the dealer and they spaced the tank down about 1 1/2". I filled up and got 26 gallons in :D, that is 6-7 gallons more fuel and the gauge reads a little under full. This helps out alot when all we do is dry camp.

    Fuel Tank Cap.

    OK that helps, that comes to 28.5 gallons in that tank which is what the factory said it should hold. But, I still only get 19-20 gallons as of the last time I filled up. As of now, the dealer lowered my tank and I will have to check to see if this fixed some of problem.

    Fuel Tank Cap.

    Update, I took it in to the dealer and they can up with the same thing with the capacity of the tank. The only thing they found is the top of the tank sets a little higher then the fill neck leaving about 1 - 1 1/2 inchs from the tank topping off. That would be about 4 to 6 gallons more or less...

    Fuel Tank Capacity

    I am having a problem with the fuel tank capacity. It is a 3920 Cyclone. All that I can get in is about 19 gallons in the tank. I am told and have read it holds about 26? I measured the tank and it comes to 36 gallons. The fuel neck was fixed because, of fueling slow. So, my question is why am I...

    Fuel tank Capacity

    Sorry guys, this is on a 3920. The neck that was fixed, the used a metal neck out of a motor home. They said it had the right bend and that all they had to do was shorten it a little in the middle (cut and reweld). As for fuel pickup, I put in fuel the gauge goes to full and when the fuel is...

    Two Thumbs Up For Heartland

    I got ahold of Heartland and asked for plans on the floor as my Cyclone 3920 HAD a fold up table. That way I could put a real table in. Long story short they sent me information on the floor and a table free of charge to put in. Got the table in today and looks and works alot lot better, did I...

    Table in 3920

    I just bought the 2007/3920 and like the unit but, The table has to be fixed. A fold up table does not work at all. It moves around when sitting down to the table, what ever you are drinking is in your lap or the floor, and so on. So, my question is this, is it possible to put in a table with...
