I took my Cyclone out on the beach a couple years ago. We stayed there for about four days if I remember correctly. You should be able to take the trailer out on the beach for the day and just pull it nose first towards the dunes in a day-use area. I'm not sure what they would charge for that. I...

Thanks Scottyb, I'll try them tomorrow.

I was actually planning to do that to mine to prevent any leakage. I'm curious as to what type of material they used on the new gears to prevent the swelling from re-occurring.

Do you happen to have the contact info for Bryan at GPI? I have the same problem with the gears swelling and binding against the gear cover. I loosened the bolts just a hair and the pump works fine. When I tighten them up, I get no flow or motor operation. What type of information does he need...

I have a 2011 3010. The specs say it is 35' 2". I have it on a 36' pad with the hitch slightly (1 or 2") behind the front edge of the pad with about a 4 or 5" space between the back of the trailer and the fence at the back of the pad. This was the main reason I went with this model. The Raptor...

I spent 22 yrs in the AF on C-141's and KC-10's, retired and did another 8 yrs with a charter out of Tulsa on DC-10-30's. Finished up my sidesaddle days a little over a year ago with just shy of 10,000. The company retired the 10's along with the FE's to boost the unemployment numbers (and their...

I posted some pictures awhile back with the TV install I did in my garage. Take a look at this thread, maybe it will help answer any questions or concerns. //heartlandowners.org/showthread.php/19093-How-to-mount-TV-in-garage?p=181282&highlight=#post181282

I have the Carefree version as well. I have the "steep pitch" as I'm sure you have as well. The way to determine this is measure from the top rail to the bottom of the rail attached to the coach. If it measures 57", then you have the "Steep Pitch". The good news Duane is that you don't have to...

Thanks for the links. I was having problems with it extending and retracting and knew I was having a problem with the right side strut. The winds in Phoenix took care of any "milking it" I was doing any longer.

Does anybody have the replacement part number, or specs (length/lbs of force) to purchase locally, for the electric awning gas struts? I had one that was binding. Since the switch is inside the coach, I wasn't able to see the strut bending during retraction. As a result, the strut is no longer...

I haven't been to the Sac dealership for about a year. At the time, they were only a sales office. If they are closing the Roseville store, I hope they are moving the service center along with the service staff to Sac since that is closer for me as well since I live in Vacaville.

Just a small piece of advice about the French Camp dealership. I purchased a 3010 from them in April of last year. The sales staff was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and they too made the price worth the purchase compared to the Midwest dealers. The problem I had was when I went to pick it...

You might want to try Pan Pacific in Roseville. Although I bought my 3010 at the French Camp store, I now use the Roseville store for any servicing that's beyond my capabilities or tool selection. There is also a Grins as well as another Pan Pacific down in Gilroy. Not sure where you're located...

I had this problem with my 2011 3010. The problem I had was due to the excessive amount of staples they used in production to keep the carpet on the main floor in place. As a result, it was ripping the carpet as well as scrapping the underside of the slide out which was leaving black streaks on...

Stang, I can help a bit on this since I had similar questions when I bought mine. - Thermostat in the garage controls the fantastic fan above the upper bunk in the garage. - Cable plugs are setup, to the best of my knowledge, and someone correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the best I've been...

NK, I'm home now, (albeit for just a day), but, here are the pictures I promised. The first one shows the position of the plastic retainer's that come with the mount. The position of the top hole is 10 1/2 inches down from the top and 9 3/8 inches from the left side wall. You can use the...

NK - I have 2011 3010 as well and I mounted a 26" Vizio Razor flat screen TV in that compartment with no problems. When I get home, I'll post some pictures and take some measurements of the mount installation, but, until then, let me tell you what I did. I went with the Vizio TV (MODEL#E260VA)...

Well, I got my 3010 back with the new roof and ladder fixed. Actually, I got it back last month. The repairs seem to have fixed the main concerns. I'm still trying to figure out how they fixed the ladder since they said they didn't need to order a new one. The clearance between the rail and the...

If it's the "See-Grins" down towards Gilroy, that's about 120 miles from me. The "new" service dept. I took it to in Roseville is turning out to be much more helpful than the "old" dealer. I'm happy with them so far, but I haven't seen the results of their repair work yet as my rig is getting...

Sts - Sorry it took so long to reply, been tied up with other "issues". To answer your question, yes. I'm in Nor. Cal. I bought the unit at Pan Pacific RV's French Camp location, which is close to Stockton. The sales staff were very good to work with which made for a pretty hassle free purchase...

I'm not sure why the L-brackets were loose, but when I went to snug them up, I could hear all the pieces of metal holding the nut inside come off, so now I have to have this fixed as well. I talked to my "new" service dept. manager (different dealer) yesterday and he told me that I'm looking at...

I was at Costco yesterday and saw a fix for this very problem. They have a 6-section adjustable strip light bar set for about $30. It looks similar to a "rope-light" setup. The nice thing about it is that it has a wireless light switch that you can attach to the wall and it's a battery operated...

I write my interest payments off. My tax dude said since it has a bathroom and a kitchen, it's considered a 2nd home. He also mentioned that there were no longer any limits to the number of additional "homes" you can write off.

No, I don't have the vessel sink. That comes with the HD package. That was really the main reason I didn't go with the HD model. That style belongs in a house, not an RV. In my opinion. :)

That's highly possible and the fix maybe as simple as getting a new ladder. The left rail is the one with all the problems. I have two days off when I get home on the 29th so I can check into it then. I still need to get the roof patched where it's ripped.

I haven't seen the pics of the sink. Where did you post them at?

I don't know if you can consider yours a 3010 anymore with all the mods you've done to yours Duane. You've pretty much outclassed all of our "stock" 3010's. :D

Gps, My right rail has plenty of clearance, about 3" also, but the left one is the rail that's rubbing. I haven't been able to do anything with it lately since I'm out of town for a couple of weeks. But, I think this is more of a model specific design flaw with the 3010 since the 3010 doesn't...

Well, to add insult to injury, I went to pull the ladder down and heard this "tinking" noise, it sounds the same as small pieces of metal being dropped down a pipe. What the noise turned out to be was the friction nut plate that's jammed down the rails to connect the L-brackets, all the flared...

I finally got my coach back after over a month in the shop. I don’t think it took the factory this long to build it. That’s another story I just won’t get into right now. One of the issues I had them address, as I stated on an earlier post, was the cable/sat connections at the UDC, when...

I've seen some at Lowe's also.

I thought about the 1X2 or even a 1X1, It doesn't have to come up much, unfortunately, if I put anything under the L-bracket to move it up, the four side mounts will not align which would make the entire ladder useless. I actually screwed up the description, it wasn't the rung that was rubbing...

I'm not sure if this is a model specific problem or just a bad ladder design issue. After finally getting my 3010 back from the dealer, I went onto the roof to clean the 30+ days of dirt off when I noticed the left ladder rung was bottoming out on the roof. Upon closer examination, I noticed the...

Motord, Are you still looking for the 3010? I'm in No. CA myself and worked with Pan Pacific in French Camp for my 3010 since they were the only Cyclone dealers in the area. I got a good quote from an out of state dealer and was willing to drive out and pick it up as well. Since I was running...

Update-- Just got off the phone with Sandy at HL and would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to her for all her help. She confirmed my suspicions about my dealer and their "honesty". In other words... as I suspected, they lied to me! Now it's a matter of finding out why they haven't been so...

Thanks Mike, I just may have to take you up on that if these Jack-wagons at the dealership keep holding my rig hostage for much longer. Heck, I could probably pick it up personally if you're down in GA? I'm usually in ATL a couple of times a month. It's the old adage, if you want a job done...

Kind of bulky, but, none the less, it definitely scores major cool points. I would opt to have a trailer hitch receiver mounted to the frame and go with something a bit more portable.

Just wondering if someone from the factory could enlighten me on the amount of time it takes a dealer to order a part, in this case, a vacuum cleaner connection (the part that is mounted in the base of the stairs where you plug in the vacuum hose), to the time it would be delivered to a...

I'm having a similar issue with my 3010 except it's catching on to 30,000 staples they used to tack down the small strip of carpet where the table sits in the dining area. The biggest problem, other than constantly catching my feet on them and slicing them up, is that they are tearing up the...

I'm actually having the same problem with mine. The only difference is that I can't get anything to work from either connection. I plugged in a cable hook up and none of the tv's will receive a cable feed unless I plug it into the tv's directly. Same thing happens when I try my sat to the sat...
