    Sailuns and 110PSI

    I’ve had the TST system for a couple years and it’s saved the side of my camper a couple times already. Only issue I’ve had is they will crack rubber valve stems over time so I use the metal valve stems. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Storing my motorcycle in toyhauler garage for winter

    It shouldn’t be an issue for your axles. The bigger concern would be your tires sitting in the same spot for an extended period of time with or without the bike in the back. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    What should my 12 v system read for voltage at switches etc?

    If you were hooked up to your truck with the engine running you might see as much as 14.2v. 13.6v should not be too high for the switch. Think you might have found a technician who isn’t really a technician. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Tires in Texas...

    Provider is a China made tire distributed by Taskmaster. I have Provider tires on my 32' gooseneck equipment trailer and also on the Cyclone. I've run Taskmaster tires for years with no complaints until the last set that I bought and put on the Cyclone. Out of the original 6 tires I only have 1...

    Make sure you look closely at your side walls to make sure the water is not is not running down on the inside and f the filon and getting to your floors.

    Slide out floor rotten

    Parkland Plastics claim that their doors are waterproof is a crock. They are also not a friendly bunch to do business with either. My floors rotted out on my Cyclone so I started searching for floors and thought I would give Parkland a try based on their advertising hype. When I called they...

    Jensen TV picture is intermittent when using the antenna

    My Jensen tv was doing that as well. In my case it was the tv that was bad and cost more to fix then it was worth so I just replaced it. The first issue I had with it was it would turn on all by itself, usually in the middle of the night. Jensen sent me a software update that fixed that problem...

    Cyclone 3914

    Not a big surprise. We bought this thing thinking we wouldn't have to work on it for a couple years. It lasted one year and all I've done is work on it. The slide floor in the pictures had rot and it was filled in with putty and painted black to match the rest of the floor. They did a good job...

    22fbs bulge or long bubble in siding

    Do you have filon siding? It depends on what caused the bulge but in some cases you can drill some holes, inject epoxy and put pressure on it until it sets. Then you would have to fill in the holes with epoxy and micro balloons or filler, sand it smooth and finish it off with Gel-coat. I've cut...

    Cyclone 3914

    Hi Dave That's what the customer service guy said. So that means my slide floor was installed upside down. Not surprised I guess. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cyclone 3914

    I'm looking for someone who owns a 3914 that can answer a question for me. I need to know if the bevel faces up or down on the off door slide floor, the one with the couch. I ordered a new slide floor for my 3914 and it came with the beveled side of the floor coated and the non beveled side is...

    SOLVED - Interior Panel bowing out

    Re: Interior Panel bowing out I had a panel in my Cyclone that bowed out. I used a yard stick on the floor at the base of the panel as a gauge to run the blade on and a Dremel multi tool to trim the bottom of the panel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Problems getting into RV Parks/Campgrounds with the size of 4200?

    If I have time I use Google Earth and plug in the camp site address for a overhead view. Works pretty well unless there is a thick canopy of trees.

    LP Gas Regulator

    You should be able to select either tank with both tanks on and when the one you selected is empty the regulator should automatically switch to the other tank. There should be an indicator that tells you the tanks have switched. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Air compressor

    You need volume (Cfm) not just air pressure. Most tire inflators can build the pressure over time but the volume they put out is very low. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    where to get diesel

    I have fueled up at a lot of different truck stops over the last 30 years with RVs and pulling trailers. I don't recall any of them that were unfriendly to RVs. Occasionally you might run into a trucker who seems a little annoyed that you are fueling at the truck stop but I just ignore them and...

    How many miles on your tow vehicle

    I had 260,000 on my Chevy diesel when I sold it, my Dodge had 260,000 on it when I sold it to my brother and he is still driving it. I just turned 40,000 on my 2013 Duramax the other day and plan on keeping it past 200,000. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cyclone 4200 LR Slide issue

    The other thing that will cause the slide to tilt back when moving it in is if the side walls pull loose from the slide floor. It will tilt back and then drop back in place as it moves in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I have ordered parts from heartland in the past without issue. So on 11/10/2015 I sent an email to eastcoastparts@heartlandrvs.com asking for a price quote on some filon and slide seals.

    43 days and not counting any more = got it back

    The bedroom seal on my cyclone did the same thing. When I installed the new seal I cut a notch in the lip of the seal to clear the rollers. The notch didn't affect how the seal lays against the bottom of the slide and can't get caught in the roller anymore. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The wood used in the slide floors is not of the highest quality and it doesn't take much moisture to get the de lamination started.
