Karen and I have decided to sell our 2009 Sundance 2900MK and 2008 F250 King Ranch diesel and will be listing both as a "ready to hit the road" package sometime later in February or early March. We were lucky to buy it here on the Forum from Eric and Dorothy and hope we can find a buyer here to...

Jim- thanks. worked perfectly. Good thing they made the doors strong so no damage there. Hinges were easy to bend back into shape and repair was EZ and sound.

So you can still buy matches :). Thanks to all. Makes sense, and as always, the simple is always the best solution.

Stormy day so when we left we pull in the slides. When we returned the kitchen slide caught a cabinet door and pulled it off the frame. Hinges still attached to door but screws pulled out of frame. Repair advice? I assume I'll need to me hinges slightly on frame and redrill Can't see how...

Good info, but in this case I'll be replacing steel with stainless so hopefully the breakage will be less of an issue.

John - were you suggesting wood screws for the exterior walls (from outside or inside) or were you thinking about interior walls? Randy

Here's a picture that will help understand the initial work I'll be doing on the outside of the coach. My rubber roof is fine but I'm concerned about the drip rail assembly that fits over the end of the rubber roof as it laps over the side of the roof. You'll note that the screw shown holds...

I'm looking at McMaster-Carr to find the screw types we've been talking about. 1. It appears that the "square drive" is a sheet metal screw as I don't see this drive type in wood, plastic or drywall? 2. It appears these square drive screws for sheet metal are pan head only? 3. There seem to...

Bob and John - Now we're getting somewhere. Staying with the general condition solutions: For mounting to the outside of the outside all: A self-tapping screw (like what I see mounting most everything on the outside from the factory) would generally be OK up to, say a couple of pounds...

I think what I'm asking, and what I know a lot of other owners will benefit from is a general understanding of the typical exterior and interior wall construction methods, i.e., material and thickness and spacing of studs. With a general understanding of typical wall "sections" the type of...

Outside: If I want to fasten something to the outside of my coach what is the screw diameter and length that can be safely used? Should I be looking for a stud in the exterior wall or is there some type of expanding screw/anchor? Weight wouldn't be a big factor, e.g., rail for removable...

I'm going to be pulling the drip rail install Eternabond where the top meets the rip rail as well as reseat the screws on the awning rail with double sided Eternabond. I want to replace the original screws with stainless and have heard they are available with the standard "square" RV screw head...

Blew fuse overextending front Venture brand front landing gear on our 2009 Sundance. After replacing the fuse holder which had fried when the fuse blew I tested the landing gear. Testing the landing gear I immediately noticed a new problem. The landing gear motor attaches to the top of the...

So the only fuse holders I could find in town were at West Marine and are rated for 30 amp fuse, BUT use #12 wire. I can't tell for sure but what's on the rig looks bigger (#10 or #8?). I did find #10 fuse holders on Amazon and will just have to wait a few days and use the #10. Anyone know...

don't recall changing out for 40 amp fuse. previous owner may have but will replace with 30 amp. anyone know by chance what gauge wire heartland uses for jack switch wiring?

It had to happen at some point. Last trip out we hit the top of the front jack travel and burned out the 40 amp fuse. Trouble is that the fuse holder is also fried and will need to be replaced. The holder, as I assume most of you know, is connected to the wiring block and then to the switch...

The Jensen AWM910 is finally dead. Our 2009 Sundance unit used an A (inside), B (outside) and A/B (both Inside and Outside) speaker output. The Inside used separate switches in the bedroom to control the on/off portion of the bedroom when running A. I'd like to use a newer Jensen that has the...

guess i'll need to stay over in the right lane wherever I am in the USA now. Now telling when that rocket will come blowing past my Super Duty. Bet the air horn alone would be enough to have me change lanes without moving the steering wheel. sweet ride! now Valerie...boys toys can never be...

We arrived today in site 332. Let the fun begin. Randy and Karen

Paul - Ready. Gave up drinking for Lent so it will be a few weeks before I can take advantage :).

Crete's are in 332. In on Thursday the 21st, out Monday the 25th.

Mickey, Karen will bring a salad made with fresh greens from her garden. Also just a reminder that we won't be able to join the group Saturday evening due to a wedding but will be back on Sunday. Randy and Karen

What to Do at Williston Crossing....besides talk, eat and drink? Hey....do I have to do something else? What is there to do? In case you missed it back on page 6 of this long-winded thread I posted some of our favorite things to do nearby Williston Crossing. We've been travelling this area for...

Have a look To our blog (see link in signature below) to see our yaks and carry solution. Randy and karen

Dave - since you were there last year and no hurricane hit we'll take that as an omen that your presence scares away hurricanes...and who knows what else! Hey, you'll be a Floridian some day...might as well learn to cheat death.

All- At the RV Supershow in Tampa last month Encore Parks had a booth which promoted a special for $199/month at all their Florida Parks EXCEPT Sunshine Key anytime between 5/1/2013 and 10/31/2013 IF YOU MAKE YOUR RESERVATION by February 10, 2013...that's only 3 days away. Karen and I just...

Nope...you didn't misspeak...I misunderstood. Musta had my bifocals on upside down. I'll give with Karen and reply with our offerings as soon as possible.

All - just a quick note that we are committed to a wedding back in Sarasota Saturday which will result in missing the potluck Saturday nite. We arrive on Thursday and don't depart until Monday so we're hopeful we'll have plenty of time to visit with everyone and enjoy time on Sunday and Monday...

Dave - You're to blame! :) We found your worksheet when we first got the rig and used it with our CAT scale weights. I recently noted that your site had a list of the individual wheel folks and Bill was the only one who was in Florida at the time...and close by too. Bill and Joan were both...

we've found that all tanks can emit odors as the materials there sit, especially over an extended period of storage. Even dumped tanks aren't clean and dry after they're empty...grey or black. as a result what we've found is after draining grey tanks we add 4 oz/40 gal tank of THIS STUFF. The...

Met up with Bill and Joan Richard of Weigh-It Portable RV Scales. They're attending the RV Supershow in Tampa and were kind enough to meet us off-site as we were heading home to Sarasota from Disneyworld in Orlando. I've attached the printout of their work. This data is consistent with the...

x5 maxxis. also invest in tire pressure monitoring and disciplined weight management. Randy in Florida

Duane - glad to hear the result and customer service from PI. Just installed this unit. Question, tho. I thought there was a bypass (blue wire) that when plugged in did the bypass? also, don't see the insulation in picture 2? Thanks Randy

Valerie - Thanks! Both you and Paul have been kind to offer. I'll keep you posted. Regards, Randy

Paul - THanks for the offer. If you'll give me your route through Kentucky I'll make it even easier. It may actually be easier and less expensive to arrange to buy it at a liquor store. Just like the wine country in California, purchases at the distilliary is often more expensive. Now, if...

Bourbon Trail Find Ok, so I haven't seen this request for help on the Forum...and it doesn't really fit into the H.O.T.E.L. category of assistance but here goes. In November I flew up to Lexington, KY with an older friend to tour the Bourbon Trail. We thoroughly enjoyed the Kentucky...

We walked the new area. Its going to be nice. I'd say Dec is realistic tho the on site folks said they had reservations for it sooner and that might be a problem. Our pull thru was awesome...could have fit 2 - 40' rigs in one site! Had breakfast in the clubhouse Saturday morning before we...

as we sit camping with our new 50 amp PI hardwired unit I am so relieved to be able to SEE what's going on with the power from the pedestal we're plugged in to. I can see we're OK before the unit lets the power to the rig and can watch the amp draw as we turn on various items like our ceramic...

Karen and I are spending the night at Williston Crossing on our way up to Florida Caverns State Park for 10 days of camping in the panhandle. There are a number of Heartland rigs here including a couple we met last November when we first discovered this place. We asked them to spread the word...
