Don't lift my the light weight frame!.... very very dangerous. You only have to lift the wheel 1 1/2" by the axle with a v-groove angle iron jack insert. (very safe) Send me your jack (or just the screw head) and I'll weld it for free. This is a 4 ton jack...8000# is twice needed. No need...

I have Firestone's and Air Lifts...both are good. If you want the best performance don't use a auto. compressor and don't "tee" the bag air line piping together.

Re: Long Distance Puchase Please post more information on your purchase so we can help......$1800 delivery is ok if your 1500miles away.

The cool air blowing at the thermostat can be the cause of your cycling. Try placing a clear plastic bag over the thermostat and redirect the cool air from aiming at the stat.

"Improper set up" could mean YOU had the brake controller set to high. > The TT brakes may have been set so high so to also stop your Ram truck.

Check the two 1/8" carb. vents out the rear of the unit...make sure they are not pinched. Gas cap vent open? The Boliy's require a smaller jet if operated above 5000'ele.

Good Sam RV roadside assistance is the only way to go IMO. We had AAA for 30 years but they won't change a tire on the wheel or bring a new tire if requested. Also Good Sam is $25% less than AAA.

Your dealer says he tightened all the PEX fittings by hand during the PDI?>= Impossible!. Pex Is a GO or NO type connection

Pete Just trying to save you from having major problems with your Ford diesel. The 08's have enough issues so why make more. If you haven't visited the FTE forum I suggest browsing there. Also check out the independent testing of the KN's for oil damage and allowing 'dirt' to pass through...

First thing to do is throw the K&N in the trash!.......... then clean your intake system thoroughly. K&N's are a joke.

You will want to do the AC mods first (forum search) as they can improve you AC performance as much as 20%. Bubble foil I the widows another 20%.

I added a second battery like you did to our Sundance. I installed a 'tee' and ran a second hose to the top of the battery second lid. The 1/1/4" or 1 1/2" hose and pvc drain trap tee can be bought at Home Depot or Lowes. Make sure you vent the bottom of the new battery box similar to the OEM.

Re: How many problems are "normal" for a new trailet? After owning 4 new RV's I'd say your issues are normal. Get those small issues fixed then modify and enjoy your trailer.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/121317169750?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 I've tried many and most don't put out enough light....these have 48 LED's warm shade are a good value at about $1 ea. These have to be soldered to the existing wires.

Can't beat that!.................. $25 spent = love and happiness.

Because.........1. People keep buying them. 2. $ Profit margin for Heartland is higher using a cheap tire.

The pump is rated for 3 gpm, that's not necessarily the faucets ratings. To check the pump output use a test hose directly connected to the pumps discharge outlet, place the hose end in a gal. bucket and run the pump for 1 minute.

EDIT: (I see what why you have issues now).

Either way you go you will want to a "Hitch Stabilizer" to stop the play between the receiver & hitch >http://www.etrailer.com/Hitch-Accessories/Roadmaster/RM-061.html

Patience Grasshopper. Buying out of state makes sense sometimes so don't worry. (we saved 20%) Try posting your old Northtrail locally with 'pics' on EBay/Craigslist/free ads/ad here. We sold ours in a week. It should sell fast for the right market price.

I had the same issues as you with our Sundance and safely correct I by........ First maintain a 6" bed rail to bottom of 5er clearance by adjusting your bed hitch height. Install a pinned spacer block between the bottom of the spring pack a top of the axle perch. (need to buy longer Ubolts)...

Be sure to take a look at the number of sidewall plys.... Go for 3 ply+. If I had your 2 axle rig I'd be looking for 17.5 wheels and tires.

Lakeshore RV (Gary England) only charged us $1.00 a mile one way. $1.50 is on the high side. Normal would be $1.25 mile, the terms are very negotiable If they want the sale. Drivers do not make 1.50 per mile.....1/2 of that if they are lucky.

Our Heartland Sundance has it....... I turned it in to a access door for a 12vdc to 120vac inverter.

Do a Google search......my Boily like others had the Eco circuit board go out within the first 30 hours of operation. (out of warranty). The factor tech spoke very little English.

It's sounds like it could be the Low OIL switch.........I'm sure you have the oil level right?

Good deal! Now you can tell others how to adjust a cable slide on a Sundance 280 XLT.

....sure it's possible. If you feel like laying on your back remove some screws from the Coroplast underbelly liner near the slide and take a look.

I didn't think they had cables...my 09 Sundance XLT had a track with gears and was easily adjustable from outside.

Hitch it up and see how it sits. I'm betting you will want air bags to level it out and reduce sway. Air bags helped my F-250 overall and I towed Ultra-lite Sundance 287 (1240# oem pin weight ended up being 1550#)

Just within the limits for you truck....you will want drop-in coil type air bags and a differential cooling cover, your truck bed will drop 5-6 inches. (been there done that)

I was considering a Eco F-150 for the wife. I saw to many owners on FTE forum stating the F150 Eco's make oil on the dip sticks. (rise oil levels from blow-by gas in the oil from the boost)

Used this hitch for one 1200mi trip. Always kept inside, 1 year old. model #30051, With the 4 anchor pins. Photos taken yesterday. $325 Local pick-up

I pulled our Sundance (sold) for many years without a slider. I bought a slider a year ago and used it once. ( slider For sale $325 like new)

Original owner, always garaged - shiny paint, well maintained, everything works. Some upgrades are> 16" wheels with E Maxxis tires, shocks, strut stabilizers, heat taped exterior plumbing, 1200w inverter. Price $15,200 (optional 3600w Boliy generator w/ bumper support $400, Reese 16k...

All Michelin LTX A/T-2 tires have 2-ply sidewall. 3 ply is rare in a LT tire, The only 3 ply sidewall tire Discount tire has is BFG KO's (bought a set a month ago for my truck...one tough tire!)

Either 'D" rate tire will be a huge improvement over the oem. If you plan to drive over 70 mph get the LT.

Guess I got lucky, my entry level Sundance came with a colored level gage (green to red). Works great!

Thanks! AJ
