Good afternoon, I hope everyone is doing well! Stupid question. Does anyone know the VIN location on the frame? I'm not talking the the factory stickers that show the VIN. I have looked everywhere on the front A frame. I'm assuming its stamped? etched in some metal? Any help would be...

Good evening, stupid question. I took my torque T26 to the storage yard and got in a hurry and pulled the battery before I had the trailer off the truck. So I reinstalled battery, white wire to positive and black to ground. It sparked a little and made a ticking sound, but Jack screw would...

Good morning, Long time no post and I hope everyone is doing well! After being out of the camping world for a long time I just purchased my 2nd Heartland camper. Its a Torque T26 Toy hauler travel trailer. Boy I'm loving it and I'm having great time getting back into one of my favorite things...

I've spent a week cleaning and detailing our well used 2007 3400RL Bighorn. We are about to set off on our annual American pilgrimage to one of our favorite Georgia state parks for 6 nights of relaxation and fun. Our Bighorn still looks as good as the day we bought it! I have done alot of mods...

All, Its been a while since I have posted anything. We were real busy this summer and haven't been out since Memorial weekend. I pulled the camper out to clean up after sitting all summer and I noticed the skin sagging down under the bedroom behind the pin box. When I pushed up I could tell...

When is Heartland coming out with the 2012 Bighorn models? I was just crunching numbers etc and I'm seriously thinking about buying/upgrading to a new Bighorn. My truck is still good for another 3+ yrs so I want to take the plung!!!!!!!!! Life is short and we go out all the time! bigger kitch...

We installed wood floors throught out our home last year and installed tile in all our baths. How come nobody can make this a option in a camper? Weight could be a issue. What about slides moving on wood,scratches etc. Sometimes slides leak and would get the wood wet? Carpet dries out. What...

All these new 2011 floor plans are killing me! All the new upgrades and features compared to our 07 3400RL. It's only been about a month since we spent New Years in FL camping and I need to get out again! It's suppose to be in the mid 60's this weekend in middle Ga. How do I convince the DW ? I...

I would much rather upgrade to a 2011 Landmark but.... Has anybody upgraded there TV in the living area? I'm thinking I can squeeze a 32"+ on the swingout arm of the TV cabinet. I will probably have to rig some kind of attachment filler to use the original swing out support arm. Merry...

I just spent the whole weekend detailing,cleaning and maintenance on my 07 3400RL. I'm pretty impressed with how well it still looks and that everything is still in good working order. We still get out atleast once a month. I know its alot of work but is there a easier way to bring out the shine...

How's everybody doing? Long time no post. We are to busy living, camping and working. We spent the weekend at "lake Blackshere" Veterans Ga State park. On the way home my exterior hot water heater door flew off on I75. I need to order a new one, any ideas? We saw a Heartland Greystone? I should...

I'm pretty upset with some new campers that moved into next to us. The parents are gone all day and the kids just keep crying. Every time I try to talk to the parents they never want to talk. I want to tell them all about Heartland products but I think they are only interested in Forest Rivers...

My heating element in my fridge went out so I ordered a new one from a local dealer who also sales Heartland products. So on the way out I couldn't help but to go check out some of the new 2011 Bighorns. I was blown away how nice they are. You can really tell they listen to this forum as far as...

I was talking to the DW tonight and we figured out we have about 14,000 miles on our 2007 3400RL. We are not fulltimers, but it gets used every month + we always go on a big trip once a year. I have had no major problems. Last year I put on some G614 tires, good money spent. We are getting ready...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWx2vcGvAdo This was pretty funny.

3 day weekend, I'm loading bikes on the rear of the BH in the dark. Maybe HL can look into putting a rear light on the back of the fivers. They do have rear lights on the toy haulers, but it would be nice on a non toy hauler. I don't think any of the competition is doing this on non toy hauler...

This will be the 3rd Thanksgiving we have spent in the Bighorn camping. We are going to be camping at Mistletoe State Park for 5 nights. My 07 3400RL is still just like new, even after our countless outings over the SouthEast and our 7000 mile trip this past summer. My family and I have alot to...

I know this is the place to post this problem. We just spent the weekend with some friends. They own a 08 Montana 5th wheel. I was trying to beat him to the dump station the last morning. As I pulled past him laughing I could see he was having problems with the Montana's front legs. I pulled...

This is the first major holiday in 20+ years that we are not camping. The weekend hasn't even started and I'm going thru withdrawals. The BIGHORN is parked in the backyard and I hear her calling me. We get out all the time and have been twice since our big cross country 7000 mile trip this past...

We had a working weekend at the deer camp. No way was I going there without the golf cart. I just kept it slow and no backing up. My DW says I earned my redneck badge now..

We are heading out this June for about a 6000 mile trip across the good ole USA. I've been working on the truck and the Bighorn getting it ready for the trip. I'm looking at ways to lighten everything up. I was going to remove the tail gate and take out items that are not needed for this trip. I...

We arrived yesterday at Jellystone Park in Madison Fl, the kids were real excited. I Put the bighorn in my spot and told my youngest daughter to let the slides out. Everything was going good then I heard a loud pop and yelled at here to stop. The door behind the sink on my 3400 got stuck between...

I was crawling around underneath my 3400Rl today and a question crossed my mind. Why do I have 2ea 6000lb axles under my 3400 if my max weight is 14K ? Is it because it is always on the truck or on the front legs, thus we would subtract the pin weight. Any thoughts ? steve

I found a place I could get 4 G614 "G" out the door installed $1095. My trailer is a 07 3400, The inside stamp of the rim says max 110 psi so I'm pretty sure those rims are ok for a G rated tire. My question is if I get the G614 what pressure would you run them at, I know its overkill so I was...

I guess I just dont get it. Why cant I just buy a truck/suv tire for the Bighorn ? As long as it can handle the wieght "e" rating etc it should be good to go. I've got some Michellin on my truck and they have been through h-ll. They were cheaper than the XPS ribs. Please tell me were I'm going...

Has anybody heard anything good about the Goodyear Marathon Tires ? A friend of mine has them on his new Montana, yes there made in china. They are about $129 per tire, thats alot cheaper than the $235 for G614. They have something called scuff guard for the sidewall. If the sidewall is better I...

My bedroom slide has been leaking for a while now. Its only happens during heavy rain. The carpet will get wet between sink and bed. If you open up the storage door under the bed slide you can see water dripping on the tool box. I don't have a slide awning topper. I think it's coming in from the...

I have a 07 3400rl with the karrier Loadstar tires. I have kept them inflated to 80 psi, Is this the correct pressure ? Yes soon I plan on replacing them, I just need to get by with a couple of short trips. Thanks Steve

The Tax Poem At first I thought this was funny...then I realized the awful truth of it. Be sure to read all the way to the end. Tax his land, Tax his bed, Tax the table At which he's fed. Tax his tractor, Tax his mule, Teach him taxes Are the rule. Tax his work, Tax his pay...

Ever since last May I've been chasing electrical probs.. I think I might have found the problem. Most of the time when I plug in the shore 50 amp power cord to the BH I just push it on, you are suppose to turn it to lock it in. When you turn it this also makes sure the 3 each conectors are...

I know there have been all kinds of post about the china bombs, I'm starting to see little cracks on my sidewall were it goes from the top of the sidewall to the start of the thread. They are karrier loadstar tires on a 07 BH. What are the best tires I should replace them with and what you think...

This doesn't have anything to do with mods etc or making a rv more hadicaped friendly but I thought I would share these pictures. As I laid there in the hospital my first thought was of my family and a close 2nd was the thought of never camping in our Bighorn again. On June 8th 08 I fell 22' off...

Does anybody have any input on what are the best awning lights? I have owned alot of them. My Dw bought these stupid latern lights, 2 strands not long enough. We saw some LED ? they looked pretty cool. I don't like the big ball lights. Something original with some light at night.

:)We are heading out this May 29th apx for a 6000 mile round trip from Ga to Ca. We have made this trip 2 times in the past pulling a 30' trail cruiser trailer and a 32' Cardinal fifth wheel. We are pulling a 07 3400rl BigHorn. We love our Bighorn and have been on about 25 trips over 2500...

I started a post sometime back about quality control whinning. I think some of you were a little ticked at me. I guess what goes around comes around. We are getting ready to go to Fl for New years so put the BH in drive to do some maintenance, mods and clean up. I installed a lcd in the bedroom...

I just installed a 22" LCD in our 3400RL bedroom. There was some good info on this forum about this mod. Thanks

I think Heartland could take it to the next level if they could come up with some new innovative floor plans. Something out of the box, yes there are already some great plans and how much can you sqeeze in something 8'x36'? As a homebuilder I spend alot of time trying to come up with or use...

Everything on my fireplace works fine except there is no heat, I've been using it for the last 1.5 years and it works good. The problem is the heat elements are inop. I pulled the fp out and took it apart and found the prob but I have some questions. There is this one white wire that supplies...

Is just me or does there seem to be alot of whining on this forum about Quality control. I understand that we have spent alot of money on our campers and we want it to be perfect. Is it possible to manufacture a perfect RV ? How much time did we spend on our pre purchase inspection ? I have...

We just spent a great 5 days in the Bighorn for Thanksgiving. It was a little cold the first night so I thought I would turn on the FP. Everything works except no heat? fan and ember lighting works fine. It has worked good in the past. Any ideas? Thanks... Steve
