    Caution for recent MorRyde I/S owners....

    This is a heads-up for anyone that has recently had the MorRyde Independent Suspension & Disk Brake upgrade installed on their trailer. Mine was installed in June, 2015. Within 200 miles on the road after the install was done, I noticed one of the outer caps was missing from the axle. On...

    Upgrading the oem Tires on my Silverado 2500HD....

    I am about to replace the oem Goodyear LT265/60R20E tires on my Silverado 2500HD after reading a lot about how problematic these tires are. My main concern is that even though these are "E" rated, the Max Load shown on the oem sidewall is 3195 lbs. This is much lower than most 10-ply 20"...

    Diesel fuel price war?

    In several locations close to I75 east of Chattanooga diesel fuel prices are down to $3.38 gal. Seems to be driven by a couple of new Speedway stations. Is anyone else seeing diesel this low? Think I need to consider a big aux tank!

    Measuring Cyclone overall height...

    Since my Cyclone rides a couple of inches high in the front and I am considering some changes that could raise the overall height, I decided to measure the 3110 to be sure just how high it is. I got the Front A/C height (14") recently while working on the Jack Antenna replacement and today...

    Cyclone Power Ramp door...?

    I have seen mention that Heartland at one time offered a power assist option for the rear Ramp door but no longer offers it. The Ramp door on my Cyclone 3110 has Patio rails and the reinforced door is heavy enough to be a concern especially if you are prone to back problems and are regularly...

    HL Fifth Wheel Trailer Suspensions...

    Do any of the Heartland Fifth Wheels offer a suspension other than the stack of leaf springs I see under my new Cyclone Toyhauler? I am kinda disappointed that there is no Shock Absorber used with the base suspension. In 1999, I towed a Holiday Rambler Fifth wheel from Florida to Alaska and...

    Cyclone Broyhill/Lane recliner problem...

    Our new 3110 Cyclone has two powered and one manual recliner built into the long sofa in the living room. The control levers for the power recliners are mounted between the seats, about midway front-to-back. We have found this to be more than a casual problem as a recent guest happened to sit...

    New Cyclone... sorting through the manuals, registrations, warranties, etc

    When we took delivery of our special order Cyclone 3110 from Big Daddy Rvs in KY recently, we were handed a nice Heartland zip bag and told that it included all the manuals for the trailer. Much later when we got around to checking the contents in detail, we found that at least 6 of the main...

    17.5" replacements for oem 16" Tires/wheels

    In considering replacements for the oem "E" rated 16" tires on a Fifth Wheel, most owners seem to use the 215/75R17.5 size as the dimensions are very close to the oem 235/80R 16" tires which usually avoids any clearance problems with the trailer & equipment. There is another 17.5" tire that...

    "CURT" Fifth Wheel Hitches ?

    I have been reading far and wide toward getting a high quality hitch for my 2015 Silverado at a reasonable price. I have read many discussions about the B&W, Reese, and other top brands, but I rarely see "CURT" mentioned here. Now, I am finding that "CURT" may be rated higher than most...
