I have a Sundance 2998RB that has been a great unit. The biggest problem is winterizing the unit. I have to crawl into the basement storage area, remove a panel and stretch and squirm and wiggle to get my hand in far enough to reach the hot water heater bypass. Also the valves to draw...

While fluffing sheets for the "air" sofa, my DW hit the fan, while it was running, and snapped off a blade. It broke the metal arm that connects the motor to the fan blade. Now, I cannot find a replacement. I spent 2 hours online last night searching for fan arms that have the same hole...

With the weight of 3 bikes hanging on the bumper, the welds are starting to fail, or possibly the metal itself. Has anyone done some reinforcing and if so could you please post some picturers. Thanks.

On our last outing, I connected to the campgrounds cable for my viewing pleasure. There were no channels found. I was using the tv hookup in the master bedroom. I was able to pick up a few local stations, but their signal was less than desirable. Our neighbors had several cable channels. I...

Being new to the RV thing, I assumed I was to store the sewer hose in the bumper. The rubber end caps are coming out while traveling and we finally lost one. Has anyone developed a clever means to keep the caps on or devised a replacement cap? I would appreciate any tips. Our 2998RB has 2...

I have finally gotten tired of being covered in poo when emptying the black waste tank. The valve leaks a bit and it must build some pressure with the cap on the dump tube. When I take off the cap, the waste spews out (have you seen the movie RV?) So I decided to pull off the underbelly and...

I noticed my outside shower leaking inside behind the propane tanks. It only leaks when the water is turned on. I assume just a loose fitting. Is there a way to access this from the backside, or do I need to unscrew the entire assembly and recaulk it? If I have to recaulk, can I use a good...

Reese/Draw-Tite Head lock search - SOLUTION! With advice from many members here and on other forums, I choose the Reese Signature series hitch. Great hitch, easy install and very soild. One thing I don't like is the removeable hitch head. The hitch is solid under proper operating conditions...

We have a Sundance 2998RB and we bought a NorthStar generator just in case. I hate to admit it, but it's the dog who would really need it. Our 12 year old Cocker doesn't like heat. So, if we stop somewhere for a few hours and don't have access to electric (you know how ladies love those...

I would like to add a standard receiver hitch to the rear of my Sundance. Has anyone done this? Is there a kit that makes this a fairly easy install? Need someplace to put a bike rack or a carrier for the generator. Ideas please!

Where's the thread on how to add the States Visited Map? We had our second outing this year and need to update my map. There was a thread on this site with instructions, but I have searched and come up empty.

After weighing the unit, I was wondering what effect the water and waste holding tanks would have on pin weight. I have a 2998RB Sundance. Where exactly are the tanks located? If I count correctly, I have one water and 3 waste tanks. Thanks!

I need some input from Prodigy users - specifically those towing between 10 and 14K pounds. What is your initial gain setting and what boost level are you using? The brakes seem somewhat aggressive at slow speeds, but I don't notice much at higher speeds. Everything seems to slow OK when...

As the title suggests - the toilet paper roll holders were shipped loose in the unit. This is my first RV and I'm curious about how to mount these. I assume an interior wall is preferred, but do I need to find at least one stud? Should I use wing anchors? What are the tips from the seasoned...

Just washed the new Sundance 2998RB Sunday to get the delivery slime off. Also, got to poke around inside a little, but the weather here isn't cooperating. 2 questions: 1. We ordered the free standing dinette. The table was screwed to the floor, I assume for shipping purposes. After...

We took delivery of a 2010 Sundance 2998RB today! It looks great and I still can't believe the features included for the price. We ordered from Lakeshore RV in MI. Process was easy and painless, especially when I found out how inexpensive it was to have it delivered right to our driveway. It's...

These new LCD tv's can be quite heavy. What is protocol when going down the road? Do tv's have to be removed from shelves and walls? Will most LCD tv mounts hold up to the abuses of American roads? Will the RV hold up the the weight of a TV hanging on it while traveling? I had never really...

I have just ordered a 2010 Sundance 2998RB! Problem is, I don't know what it will look like. My dealer indicated the exterior graphics have changed. He also mentioned that there were other changes. Can I get some specifice on the changes as well as a picture of the exterior graphics? I just...

Ordered a 2010 2998RB last Thursday! Anxiously awaiting arrival in late January! Any tips on what doesn't come with a new camper that I will need? Hoses, filters, supressors, etc? Tips appreciated!

Can it be done? We may order our Sundance in the next week. We were looking at RV for less in TN. If I recall correctly, Butch & Karen offer a night or two of free camping at a nearby campground. Is this bad in January? Are the units campable in these temperatures? Thanks from the new guy!

Has anyone used a Hidden Hitch Signature Series fifth wheel? I found one on www.americanrvcompany.com. It has a nearly identical part number to the Reese unit and visually appears to be the same part. The big difference is price. On their site, the Hidden Hitch unit is listed for $557.76 and...

I am purchasing a Sundance 2998RB and plan to use a Reese, Signature Series 18K hitch. My tow vehicle is a 2500HD Chev with short bed. How do I plan the hitch setup to minimize problems at pickup? At what height should the fifth wheel plate in the truck be? How many inches below the rails, or...

I really like the Heartland products, especially the Big Country 3490 RB and 3490 BHS. Everyone says a slider hitch is not needed. Prove it!!!! Post some pictures and videos so I could sleep better!!! I will be using a short bed GM truck to pull this trailer. I'm just skeptical. Thanks!!!
