    ATF: Greystone - Installing TV wall mount bracket

    I am going to install a flat panel TV wall mount bracket in the entertainment center and need to know the dimensions of the board the factory installed in the wall for that purpose. I specifically need to know the thickness so I don’t penetrate my shower wall, which is on the back side of the...

    overhead cabinet hinge pulled out of cabinet

    I had hinges popping out on 4 of my 8 overhead cabinet doors when I attempted my epoxy fix on the plastic plugs. Subsequently, I had another door hinge pop out (5 of the 8 with the problem). I used a liberal amount of epoxy which was a mistake. The epoxy got into the threaded portion of the...

    Winterizing a Greystone

    I winterized my 2011 Greystone 29MK yesterday at the RV park we were staying at. It was my first time to winterize an RV. I was pretty well prepared by reading post on this and other forums and watching some YouTube videos. Thanks to RoadJunkie for the proper adapter to bring for the outside to...

    Need advice on tire inflator

    I recently purchased the Black & Decker ASI300 Air Station for about $50 (see link below) and it is very slow going at higher pressures. I topped off my truck tires and was disappointed in the time it took. If I hadn't ordered it online, I may have taken it back, but I don't know what would have...

    Proper Torque Needed

    Re: Proper Torque Neeed See the following thread for a Greystone. A Heartland dealer service responded about a week ago. I would verify for your model year though. //heartlandowners.org/showthread.php/18023-Greystone-Bolt-Torque-Specifications?highlight=greystone+bolt+torque

    What Do you Store in Basement and Front Compartments

    We have a Greystone 29MK, which is the same layout to a Sundance 200MK. We also moved from a pop-up to this trailer, so I am use to keeping items to a minimum. We are surprised at the amount of storage space in our new trailer (under chairs, in the table, overhead cabinets, etc.). We camp...

    2011 32BUDS hinges coming out!!

    Dave, Good idea with the toothpicks and glue. Thanks for the detailed description of your fix and I will do the same on my Greystone. Heartland suggested gluing in the plastic screw inserts should solve the problem but I still believe the cause of the problem is the struts and your post...

    Greystone Bolt Torque Specifications

    Re: What are the torque specifications for the bolts in the King Pin Box? The current online Heartland Owner's Manual, on print page #22, states "Using a torque wrench, tighten kingpin box bolts to 60-70 ft. lbs". This is a lot lower value than what I read in another forum post but that...

    I had a similar question regarding how to flush the black tank sprayer in my recent thread titled ”questions for winterizing the water connection inlets” in the Heartland General Forum. Willym responded with the following great idea: “I winterized the black tank flush in my unit using the...

    Greystone Bolt Torque Specifications

    It appears the axle's U-bolt nuts for a 6-8K axle should be torqued to 90 ft-lbs. This information is in the new Lippert's Trailer Axle Operation and Service Manual, rev082710 (assume dated August 27, 2010), page 13. Before, I have always seen in the forums the 65 ft-lbs for the U-bolts. The...

    I posted the problem with my hinges in the "Greystone - Ask the Factory" forum and received the following answer from a factory representative a few days ago: "Re: overhead cabinet hinge pulled out of cabinet When this issue occurs is it generally not the struts, it is more the...

    overhead cabinet hinge pulled out of cabinet

    I will give the epoxy fix a try. I had another hinge pull out on a rarely opened cabinet that I was checking for contents as we were packing up to leave the campground.

    under cabinet electrical outlet keeps falling off

    Great idea with the hacksaw modification. I was thinking about the old-work style box also but concerned it would be too big for my space. There is not any insulation in the under cabinet area so an open back end of the box should not be a problem and the outlet is exposed now anyway. Thanks...

    under cabinet electrical outlet keeps falling off

    I have a 2011 Greystone 29MK and the downward facing GFCI electrical outlet under the microwave keeps coming out. It does not have an electrical box, but was installed with the two cover plate screws attaching the cover plate and outlet to the thin (1/8" ?) plywood. One of the screws barely...

    overhead cabinet hinge pulled out of cabinet

    I have a 2011 Greystone 29MK and on the cabinet over the stove (door lifts up), a hinge keeps popping completely off on the door side. The plastic screw plug inserts in the door come out of the wood with the hinge and screw attached. The hinge is on the same side as the hydraulic strut and I...

    2011 32BUDS hinges coming out!!

    I have a new Greystone and having the same problem on an overhead cabinet. I think the hydraulic strut door opener could be the problem. I believe the strut is popping the hinge plastic screw plug inserts out of the wood because of the angle it was installed. I have looked at my 7 other overhead...

    What spare fuse sizes do I need

    I have a 2011 Greystone 29MK and need to get some spare fuses. The trailer is stored in another state but I would like to get them before we use it again. If it uses the old glass tube style fuses, they can be hard to obtain. Do you know what style & size of fuses I will need for my trailer?

    trailer brake controller adjustment procedure

    I have a 2010 GMC Sierra 2500 HD with an integrated brake controller. The controller manual for the adjustment states to pull the trailer between 20-25 mph and apply the Manual Trailer Brake lever, adjusting the trailer gain just below the point of the trailer wheel lock-up. It then reads...
