    Entry step options 2011 Landmark Grand Canyon

    Also, they are a bit hefty to lift while installing. I think I placed them onto some wood blocking and a floor jack to lift them up/high enough to put bolts in. May require taking some skirting screws off to gain access to 1 or 2 bolts. Had to get a shorter bolt or 2 cuz of clearance w/ step...

    Entry step options 2011 Landmark Grand Canyon

    I vote for the Torq- Lift steps. Replaced the orig 4 bouncy steps w/ them and love them. No dirt goes inside of coach which can be a issue w/ the Mor-Ryde ones. Took a little to install, but worth it.

    Do all the legs on the Lippert Auto-Level hydraulic system make ground contact?

    My wife hates me, but we still put blocks under the legs just to limit the distance the legs travel.. BUT we don't have to place boards under the tires!!! Once blocks are under the legs, hit Auto-Level and within a minute and half or so......woooooohla..........done!

    water hoses

    What's the best fresh water hose to use that doesn't kink up and coils easily? I bought 2 new Camco hoses from our old dealer last spring to replace our orig '05 hoses. These things are a PITA to coil up, seem to take up a lot of space in bin (25' and 50') so was just wondering if there is...

    Leveling leg leaking?

    I saw sometime ago that the RR leg of the 6 pt level up on our 3560SS Big Country was wet/maybe leaking but didn't seem to be to concerned about it. Upon taking it out of storage, it was the only leg that was down a cple of inches. Took to our old RV dealer for wheel bearing service and when I...

    Roof cleaner and protector

    I've used liquid Spic-N-Span and a mop. Do say 3'-4' section at a time, rinse off, wet next section, repeat. Some say you can use a pressure washer, but to keep the tip in a wide pattern and NOT pencil tip. Used a protectorant 1x, but otherwise just washed the roof cple times/yr.

    Flex Armor roof cost

    The orig roof is a tan color and not 100% white, so I should be ok there. Will chat w/ DD again and check with them just to make sure we are on same page. Hmmmmm, never gave the skylight a thought. Will mention to the wife and see what she thinks. With the 3560SS there are only 3 windows for...

    How big should our new RV be!?

    We started off in a 35' 5er bunkhouse w/ 2 adults and 2 kids. After they grew up and left, wife/I went to a 41' 5er. Most folks would say it should've been the other way around. We love the extra room tho it does present challenges if we want to visit any state or national parks. Plus take into...

    Furrion Cooktop FGH4ZSA Center Burner

    I cannot answer this question directly cuz the wife is chief user of it, but from what I gather the Furrion stoves are junk. Insignia's are much better. Shoot,, the micro, tv's and A/C's are branded Furious as well. Fridge is Norcold.

    What model are you?

    There's no VIN anywheres you can see? Should be a sticker on LF outside corner, perhaps even stamped into frame or as cookie pointed out above. Do you have the reg for it? If you have the reg or see anything w/ the VIN, then contact HL to see if they can help you.

    Coil spring hitch from Lippert

    Has anyone seen the video yet from Big Truck Big RV on his series on Lippert and especially the one on what Lippert/Curt (?) maybe offering soon regarding a coil spring and shock pinbox? Yes it will aid in the jarring compared to a std one, but for my money, I'd still rather have a air bag just...

    Why no discussion

    Dear Sir, Why are there no or very few and far between Heartland dealers that carry Big Horn, Big Country lines? Here in Central NY, there are hardly any dealers that do. Thank you for your reply to main question.

    Will be buying a 2020 Torque T285 out of state and need to know the approximate height of the tongue. I haven't purchases a hitch yet.

    You can look up the specs for this online. Has to be 13'6" or less. What are you towing it with? Like rhodies said above, go w/ the B&W one rated for the weight or the biggest one they offer. Remember you should have at least 6" of clearance between top of box and underside of RV. The B&W is...

    Bed slide on a BC 3560SS

    Question came up on my FB page where a poster has a '18 BC 3560SS and when they put the bed slide out from the huge wall slide, it comes right back in. Any suggestions? We have the same unit and never had that happen.

    Quality of traveler

    In Heartlands line of top to bottom: Landmark, Big Horn, Big Country. The Traveller is sub line (lower food chain) for the Big Horn. IMO, the Big Country is above the Traveller.

    ITEMS THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED, SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE IMPROVEMENTS

    Not being a naysayer, but based on all what was written, why did this unit get purchased in the 1st place if all these items were wrong? Was told many years ago that don't buy something that isn't to your liking and say "we'll make it work" but rather get something that fits the bill 100%.

    winterize 5th wheel when NOT using it for 9 months

    Another option too is to place charcoal briquettes onto/in alum pans and place in a couple spots in coach w/ things closed up to aid in moisture absorption. I do this as too much dust gets kicked up by owner of storage place , so keeping vents open isn't a option.
