Thanks for the suggestions guys! Westxsrt10 thanks for the link to Monroe! downloaded and saved the chart so I'll be doing some measuring tomorrow, and will crawl back under (if it dries up enough) with my work light and do a real thorough inspection of the springs, shackles, etc. Don't...

Re: Lippert springs strike again After reading this thread and many many others with the same suspension problems, I decided to crawl under my BH3055 and check. I found almost exactly what the pics posted by RubiconAg show except I had nine loose nuts and the frt. LH shock top nut was gone...

After browsing the 2 posted links I think that a lot of info is outdated. Manitoba laws now mimmick those of B.C. Also, according the the driver's handbook RV's must stop at weigh stations. Just returned from a trip to Alberta and noticed signs at the weigh scales in Alberta and Saskatchewan...

hannahgail8 When I picked up our Bighorn in the U.S I was expecting a lot of hassle at the border. I was through and gone in fifteen minutes!! You require three pieces of paper - Bill of Sale, no recall certification letter, and certification that it meets the RVIA specs at time of manufacture...

Well folks, I guess it is about time I posted the results for my impromptu brake failure. All I can say is Fantastic!! I left the old parts that were replaced with Brian Hammer and everything worked out excellent! Everything was covered and we deposited the cheque today! THANK YOU Heartland...

Had my 3055RL into Capital RV early this month. Service was excellent! Brian and crew fixed ALL of my concerns and checked everything out. Thought I would be there for a week, but they had me back on the road in only three days. People were all very friendly and helpful. Lino was replaced in...

Dave, yes I finally talked to Steve at Heartland and he stated they would look at the parts that were replaced and we will come to a satisfactory agreement! I have an appointment to bring the trailer in on June 1st (trying to verify this as the 1st is a Sunday?) but they want to go through the...

Wow! Where were you guys with this tool when I needed it? Had a couple of leaking lines I had to repair and ended up actually filing them off by hand! Had I known about this tool there was a Home Depot about 3 blocks away. Oh well it was an experience I don't hope to duplicate soon! Replaced...

Wish I Had read this before we left home! However I won't start complaining until after I have talked to Heartland. Had to have $700 work done before we could leave North Dakota in the middle of a blizzard! Had to have the work done and did NOT get factory authorization first. Have all of the...

Thanks Chuck for the tip on Tiki Village. We arrived here about Feb 19th and will be here 'til Mar. 15th. Hope you are still here as would sure like to meet you! I think I've seen your site but never see anyone out and about Will keep checking. Thx again TrickyD

Thanks for the tip Will call The "Tiki" campground first thing in he morning. From the pics on your link it looks like the units ae pretty close together but oh well. The rate is closer to what I was expecting to pay so hopefully I can get in there. Will try to book for around Feb. 27th to Mar...

Thx JP I remembered reading about the tire pressure gauge previously, so I bought one that I hope is good enough. It reads to 150 psi. I used to have a real good one built into the air chuck like tire shops use for truck tires but I gave it to my buddy before we bought the Bighorn. Oh well as...

Wow thanks and keep them coming! I never thought of half ot the stuff listed! I was thinking of bringing a 6' step ladder, my tool box for minor repairs that I feel I can challenge, but never thought of an air compressor. I do have a 3K gen that I will take along. I think I have most of the...

He everyone. We are preparing for our first trip in our BH and do not know what is a real necessity to take along. It will be approx a two month trip from Man. to Florida. Requesting suggestions on what to take along and campgrounds to visit on the way. Any suggestions on campgrounds near...

It just happened to me! Was reading "new posts" did not log out only clicked on several links and pictures. Got through all of page 1. When I clicked on page 2 got the following message: <vBulletin Message Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.>...

Welcome to THE forum Barney! Lots of good information here. I rearely post, but I read lots! Picked up my 2008 3055RL in June and have yet to really use it. Hope to give it a real good work out in Feb. next year, plan on towing it to Florida. Wish I had something to comment about, but we only...

Thanks Terry. Nest time I hook up to the BH I'll try the higher # settings. I've also been pulling a 16' enclosed cargo trailer, with controller set at 3 and it works perfectly on that setting for that trailer. Guess I'll just have to experiment a little more with the BH. I just wish it were...

Ford Factory brake controller TRdeal, I tow a 2008 3055RL with a 2008 F350 diesel. It also has the factory brake controller. What setting do you normally use? I've tried 2.5 to 3.5 range and don't really notice any difference, however I try to use the brakes as little as possible and prefer to...

Not worried yet Although I went South to purchase my 5th wheel, I don't have a local dealer. The closest one is approximately 450 KM away. If I should happen to need some warranty work, I would just be passing through. Can they penalize you for that? Besides, after all considerations I feel...

First Post...re importing to Canada Thumper I just purchased a 2008 3055RL Bighorn for Lakeshore RV. I brought it back across the border on June 28th. Piece of cake! John made sure I had all of the required paperwork and it took about 25 minutes at the border. Make sure you have your bill...
