I had my new Michelin Ribs installed last week. Huge upgrade from the Blowmax's that it came with. When the tire guys pulled the tires off we found a pending disaster ! One of the other tires had a broken belt . It was on the opposite side of the fifth wheel that had the first blowout. The...

We Moved from a 40 ft diesel motor home to the Gateway 3650bh . I towed it for a couple months before changing to a Mor/Ryde pin box, the ride quality with the new pin box is night and day. I kept the old one in case I trade. Wayne

don't come to the Tallahassee CW, I'm into it with them over my Blowmax tire issue. do a search on this and other forums. Like Irv2 ,Or google wayne

The kit I used on my Gateway was the over 58 in. Kit

"The ST tire is designed to prevent sway for your trailer. The LT tires do not have this feature and are not recommended for the trailer. If the trailer originally came with LT tires, the XPS Rib would be an excellent choice. This tire has a steel fabric construction and is our most durable...

He was great! After the rally I went to Walmart and bought a polisher and ordered the wax off Amazon. In about half an hour I had counters that looked like they came out of a Prevost . wayne

I thought the same thing first time I extended it out. Especially when the slide takes up about 4 feet of it. I also converted my landing gear to dual motors. Nice mod. Wayne

so they say it's an alignment issue ,that's why they are installing the correct track system. I feel good because my rig has it installed. Waite a min. I just had a Blowmax blowout with the correct track ...sup wit dat? Wayne

The term "squeaky wheel" comes to mind. Years ago I had a class A rig in my local CW for an issue with a leveling leg. It had been there for 2 weeks with nothing done to it. I saw a few adds for an upcoming RV sale , I called the sales manager an told him about my issue . I was given the...

Black tank should be fine ,great tank is another story ,2 showers a day fills it quick. The last campground I stayed at had no sewer but had lots of grey water dump sites spaced around the park. I used a 5 gallon bucket a few times. wayne

Dang, I must have missed that also. My 2014 Gateway has the Blowmax tires:mad: I wish I could get someone from Heartland to return my phone calls :mad: With these wonderful tires they have been selling ,they might be busy with angry customers. Maybe it's a good thing ,it's been almost a week ...

There is a Blowmax support group for when it happens to you. Wayne

The sad thing is ,I've only had the rv for less than six months. It's a 2014 and I have towed it for less than 4,000 miles . Always kept the pressure at 80 psi .I'm thankful there was very little damage. I feel violated and need some support. Wayne

That would be one heck of a big fire!

I am a new member of the Blowmax club. I was looking for the special group but couldn't find it. Being there are so many of us in the club now ,can we get our own group? Wayne

Our last coach had the external tank sensors on it, I wouldn't waste my money on them again. The grey tank would read 1/3 full and water would back up into the shower. That's how I knew the tank was full. Wayne

I tested mine last month at Indian Springs state park . When you pull into the park to register ,there is a sharp turn and then a hill...when I made the turn ,the breakaway must have gotten stuck and pulled out. the truck was having a hard time pulling the rig up the hill. The led on the break...

I installed the Mor/Ryde 1621 \5 on my Gateway ,the 3,4,5,or 6 is the weight of the rig . Mine was the 14,000 to 18,000 weight i am very happy with mine. Here is a model chart ,I found mine on Amazon for a great price...$430.00 plus free shipping with Prime ,I found a returned one for 60% off...

Welcome to the Heartland family Wayne

Nice, I may have to steal that one Wayne

Congrats on the new Gateway ,I haven't had any major issues with mine . Closet latch broke,kitchen drawer stiff,loose drain fittings in kitchen and front bathroom. Make sure you do a slow PDI .run everything including heater. Wayne

I installed the Mor/Ryde after 4 trips of 3 hours or longer, I am very happy with the ride improvement . When we rode across bridges on I-10 the DW would wave her arm in the air like a bull rider. All that's gone now. Wayne

Very nice ,I also have two hookups on the Gateway . I just bought a "y" adapter and another hose to have both connections ,but now I have twice as much stinky slinky to store. :( I may have to check your mod out. Nice pictures Wayne

Welcome to the forum ,now get out there and use your new rig . wayne

I was trying to find this link,then saw you had just posted it. be very careful when installing the outlet. I had a friend help me a few years ago ,if I had let him hook up the electrical box there could have been a fire. He was trying to hook it up like a dryer outlet. 50 amp RV service is not...

Re: Which pin box &hitch do you recommend? I just installed the Mor/Ryde pin box on my Gateway. After towing it for 3 months without it ,I am very pleased with the improvement in ride quality . $430.00 on Amazon with free prime shipping .

I have the standard bat wing .it may be like mine ,when they installed it they got a little carried away with the sealant. Wayne

Also on the 3650BH ,make sure the tv in the living area is secure. The slide will hit it. DW caught it before we had to make a trip to Best Buy. Wayne

The DW said she wants a ceiling fan in the kitchen and maybe in the back room ,the first one is the kitchen. Anyone out there have a fan installed ? Pictures would be great. in the last three months I've installed a washer and dryer, JT strong arms, dual landing gear motor kit ,and this week a...

I had to wipe the coffee off my IPad after that.

I removed the washer /dryer from our former RV , They wouldn't give me anything extra for them ,so I pulled them out. a few years ago I had a combo unit, the DW hated it because of the long cycle time. Some people like them,not me. I did did not have to remove the dresser ,just raised the bed...

The DW was complaining about a bad smell the last time we were out, I figured it was the baked beans ...i just went in the rv and the smell is still there. Time to go up on the roof with some tools and see what's up. Wayne

When we bought our Gateway the salesman was trying to sell us a F250 SRW they had all setup and ready to go. He said it would tow it fine...well,I hooked her up and off we went...I don't know it the truck had suspension issues ,but the fifth wheel was all over the place. I found a F350 DRW and...

I spent a few hours yesterday adding a second motor to the landing legs. it would have took about two hours but I had to take a break and go get my eyebrow glued back together. the first step in the upgrade after you secure the fifth wheel to the truck is to remove the crossbar between the...

I used this one from Amazon ,it's chromed plastic. Looks great . http://www.amazon.com/Westland-VID403AC-Chrome-Deluxe-Dryer/dp/B002UC8QJI/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1400633924&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=rv+dryer+vent+splendid

I installed a washer dryer Stack in my Gateway last month. Here is the link . wayne //heartlandowners.org/showthread.php/45000-Dryer-vent-install-in-Gateway-3650bh?highlight=

i called Heartland last week about the same thing for my 3650bh,they said its a Lippert 1621 long style.I'm looking at getting the MorRyde pin box. Wayne

I installed mine the same way,except I noticed you have them upside down ,the instructions say to put the big tubes to the top and slide the small tubes up inside to keep water from running down inside the tubes. I mounted my rear arms towards the front also ,they work great. Wayne

My DW has been "vaping" for about a year. She likes the flavors .the government has been trying to regulate the E cigs for a while now. I think they are more interested in taxing then the health issues. I saw some city's are banning them indoors and making people go outside where the other...

Thanks for the info,the same thing happened in our last coach. The sliding mirror fell out of the frame and fell on the bed,lucky it did not break . I replaced the top frame with 2x2 and forgot all about it.
