    PullRite Superglide 24k hitch for 5th wheels.

    PullRite Superglide 24k Hitch, 6k pin weight capacity, model # 3600. Very well cared for. Has upgraded PullRite HD "roller". On an annual basis, I would disassemble, clean, lubricate, and reassemble all components. I used Slip Plate dry graphite lube spray on the way tubes on each trip we used...

    A 3012?

    I agree as well. I added the HD 16" rims with G614's, but a unit with a 12' garage, same basic floorplan/living area, along with 8k axles and H rated tires would be real nice. I highly doubt anyone would load it much more than a 3010, but having that 12' garage would be so nice. I like...

    Got a live one for ya...

    Hey all, A month ago was the last time we used our Cyclone. I smelled a good amount of propane on the ODS tank location. (that's opposite door side, right?). I opened the door, sprayed some soapy water on the regulator and it was bubbling where the ventilation holes are on the regulator. I...

    rating of "d" rings in the floor

    xcflyn, Please do post some pics if you don't mind. I'm wanting to at the very least, buy 2 more factory matching d-rings, but I've given thought of doing the e-track. I would really prefer any e-track type system to sit flush, like the factory d rings, but that seems difficult. On a side...

    rating of "d" rings in the floor

    I know our 3010's are a different trailer, but just yesterday, along with removing and rotating the 2 rear most D rings and having the D ring opening face forward (vs. rear), I also added 1/4" lock nuts to all the self tapping bolts that secure the D rings. I had access to all 6 of the outer D...

    Eliminator Strut Stabilizers, question on install

    Thanks Trucknutt and Beasleyrl. Yeah, the fronts are just fine. With the lippert stabilizers that trucknutt posted, it's no problem installing the swing bolt on the feet pads, the problem is mounting to the frame. As beasleyrl said, there is super tight clearance with the T bolt on the area of...

    Eliminator Strut Stabilizers, question on install

    Thanks, yeah, I mentioned I didn't buy there, but they have a good picture on their site....got them for $275 total delivered. CW advertised them for $230, but with taxes and delivery, it was still more than that. Got them at Adventure RV on cyber Monday.

    Eliminator Strut Stabilizers, question on install

    Thanks for the reply... I'd love to have a Level Up, but going to give this a shot for now... I'd like to run them rear to front like you did, but I need min. 30" distance between each mounting point of stabilizer. I have under carriage storage bins and the rails run the width of the trailer...

    Eliminator Strut Stabilizers, question on install

    Hey all, Have any of your installed these on your Cyclone? Everything looks doable on the fronts, but the rear bars on my Lippert rear stabilizer jacks has me scratching my head... I bought elsewhere, but here's a link to them on CW...

    My 2010 3010 trailer weights w F250....

    Re: My 2010 3010 trailer wieghts w F250.... To add to what porthole said, as well as rtataryn, I think you do get to count the pin weight in addition to the gvwr (14,000 in regards to the 3010 model). Just look at Keystone Fuzions and even HL's own Landmarks and I think BH models. The Fuzion...

    Gray Tank Valve Failure

    Also, Porthole suggested using "gorilla tape" (think that's what it's called) on the third valve at the end cap. That's what I used. It's a silicone based elastic tape that you wrap around the third valve to keep it from vibrating off. If you sell the trailer, you can cut the tape and take the...

    Our first trip in new Cyclone 3010

    Totally agree with you Duane. I'm 6'4 and my elbows can't stand our bathroom sinks. Fought DW about it, but I won and now I brush my teeth in the kitchen sink. Sooo much more room to work with :) My three biggest design gripes is the room in the bathroom sink area, the low headroom up front...

    And so it begins

    As always, mods look great Duane. So on the cabinet doors you've added (above microwave and I think the new cabinet door and access area under sink that replace the fire extinguisher), did you just order new cabinet and hinges from HL parts dept? Also, on that Level Up dent in your tail...

    Going it alone against the wind

    I know there are a lot of 1 ton+ TV owners here, but owning the trailer you're looking to buy, and towing it with a CCSB Duramax with airbags, I can say it's a great setup. I daily drive my truck. My dad has a CCLB and that extra 2 feet is a pain in the butt trying to daily drive and park in...

    Ladder rub

    I would certainly look into trying to get the roof repaired under warranty. It doesn't sound like any negligence has been involved here, and the trailer is almost brand new, so this ladder shouldn't have failed and caused this damage like it did. I just disobeyed the Dr.'s rules and climbed a...

    Thor Industries buys controlling interest in Heartland RVs, LLC

    Re: Thor Acquires Heartland RV Stake for $200M I'm with you gpshemi, Happy for Brian and the crew to get compensated for what they built and have worked so hard for, but I like the smaller business ran/operated mentality, so if any of your guys read this, don't let your customer service and...

    New Bed/Bench

    Yikes!!! That hurts :( Thanks for doing all the leg work Louie. You answered it for me as well. I feared this would be a spendy upgrade, since we'd have to replace the happijac rails and all. Happijac needs to figure out a way to retrofit or make it universal with our existing rails. That way...

    Ladder rub

    Just out of curiosity, which side L bracket failed per your post a few days ago? The left side as well? This could be far fetched, BUT, if it is also the left side, I'm wondering if there is a design flaw in the ladder in that the left side is slightly shorter than the right side, hence...

    Ladder rub

    Please keep us updated on this Scott. I'd really like to go take a look at the roof of my 3010 to see if I'm getting the same rub, but I just had back surgery a week ago and probably won't be able to check for another week or so (4 weeks if you ask my wife!). Just prior to surgery, I installed...

    Horrible Screeeech sound when raising front landing gear...

    Thanks for the info on cost figures Beasleyrl, gives me something to think about. I most certainly wouldn't throw more $ at the current single motor electric system if it takes a crap. $500 isn't too bad for hydraulic landing gear if I could get that price offered in Cali. Trucknutt, it's...

    Garage bed HappiJac frame issue

    Good to know Raptor08. I haven't measured distance between one another, but both sides seems to be consistantly inconsistent (ha!) if that makes sense. I drilled new holes about 1" up/down from the 2 respective bolts that were super loose and not grabing any frame. It's boxed aluminum studs so...

    Horrible Screeeech sound when raising front landing gear...

    Thank you all for your comments on this thread. Trucknutt, I did most of what you mentioned and for now it seems to have worked. I saw score marks of about 3-6" on a few different sides of each of the "middle" stage of the landing gear. None of the stages were that dirty at all, but I cleaned...

    Garage bed HappiJac frame issue

    Good idea, did that with board as well as a long level I've got. Pretty much perfectly straight on the outside. The inside walls are not level, but wasn't necessarily expecting them to be. They are consistently off on each side of the trailer, so that's good. I'm just going to drill 2 new...

    New Bed/Bench

    I'm with my good friend Louie, interested in some info here. What is the weight capacity of them individually as a couch, and also as a bed since there isn't any full length cross frame support, wonder if it's only good up to 200lbs or so...

    Horrible Screeeech sound when raising front landing gear...

    Thanks everyone so far for the replies. Thanks trucknutt, I'll be sure to do this over the weekend and see if that solves the problem. Duane (I'm about to start referencing you as the "Godfather"!), so with that fancy new Level Up system you have, do you now use that to hitch/unhitch? Is...

    Horrible Screeeech sound when raising front landing gear...

    I know a lot of the older units had a lot of issues with the Venture/Lippert motors. I've had this screech occur one other time about 4 months back and oddly enough, when dropping off at the shop for some warranty work. Of course it didn't do it again when the repair shop went to fix it, so they...

    Garage bed HappiJac frame issue

    Hey all, Doing a couple small mods to the trailer and just noticed the happijac vertical frame is pulling/bowing away from the wall. I can't say how long it's been like this, or if it's been since we bought it, never looked that closely at that area. I tried to gently get screw them back in...

    Garage sliding screen door rollers

    Yeah, that's the same glass door and screen I'm talking about Duane. My glass sliding door (going into the garage) slides nicely. The screen door (with the crap plastic rollers) slides nicely now, but the initial install of the framing was sloppy. There was a lot of excess silicone in the...

    Garage sliding screen door rollers

    Hey all, Have any of you had problems or replaced the plastic wheel rollers on the screen door for your Cyclone? I've replace one already, and another has broken. My guides are always clean, no sticking, and we don't even use the screen door a ton, but I'm fed up with these stock piece of...

    And so it begins

    Whenever you're ready to sell your 3010 Duane, I think you'll have a lot of interested parties :) Wow, impressive mods you've done. I'm also interested in what kakampers posted on costs of tires/rims if you don't mind. I just noticed the drivers side front tires on the trailer is bubbling and...

    tips on repairing LED tail light

    Thanks for all the info FJ. I'm going to order a new one and have it shipped to the CG in CO so I can have it on for at least the return trip. If you don't mind my asking, what/who is AW Direct and what do they have to do with this light issue...? Thanks!

    tips on repairing LED tail light

    Alright, I'm joining the crowd as well with this rear led taillight issue. Just noticed last night, bottom 2 are out, 2 above them are just about out. Trick is we leave Thursday night for 2,000 mile trek to CO. Don't know if I can get a replacement in time. There is a bit of water in the...

    Garage thermostat?

    For my 2010, it's to control the fantastic fan that's above the two beds in the garage. I'd venture to say that may be what it's for on yours as well....but I could be wrong :)

    Dexter EZ Flex suspension

    Go for it Detmer. I know as of around summer '09 all the new trailers were getting this kit from the factory. Mine didn't come with it. Drove the factory hangers for 6 months, then made the mod. Factory Lippert bolts were already oblong and showing wear. Trailer honestly rides a good...

    2011 3850 outdoor speakers

    Sorry LT, no help from me, but I will say I'm very interested in what you find out, and how this mod turns out. I have a pair of speakers up front, on the awning side, but I really want to install either another pair outside by the garage entry door, or perhaps just one speaker outside and one...
