    Shower interior pan

    The shower pan floor is obviously not well built and not well supported allowing it to flex and break. Short of tearing it out and replacing see if you can see the underside of the pan from under the trl. If so maybe do some additional supporting. Expanding foam insulation might be something...

    no power 12v or 110 on my pinehurst 2009 landmark..PINEHURST

    If plug arched you probably need a new plug and redo wires in it if applicable. There should be additional fuses in your front basement that need reset. You can take care of the plug problem first and then start working from there with a multi meter seeing where the juice stops.

    looking for positive and negative comments

    We have had one in our Heartland and moved it to our new Cameo. Wouldn't be without it. Trouble free for 6 years. Takes quite a while to do a combo wash and dry and small loads but if you can dry somewhere else it works much faster.

    Ice maker Question

    I put in a dual filter in the main storage basement area close to the utility closet so all water coming into trl is filtered. We had been using a pitcher filter but it took up room in the frig and was a bit of a slow pain. For ice I purchased the smaller of the two portable ice makers from...

    Tire Chains?

    Read your manual. Seems to me mine says to put on front only for some reason. I just go with four wheel and take my time.

    winterizing

    Kind of like opening the sewer drain valve first and then taking the sewer black cap off. I won't say exactly what was all over the ground and me. Really hard to put that cap back on with the flow of _ _ _ _ coming out.

    Cyclone - Fresh water tank supports sagging

    Re: ATF: Cyclone - Fresh water tank suports sagging I had an 09 Cyclone that the water tank sagged badly. Instead of pulling it 200 miles to my Dealer, I pulled the plastic stuff off the bottom and welded several steel straps across the supporting "beams". Yes it was underengineered and...

    2007 Ram regen

    I have an 09 and you cannot tell the difference when the regen starts unless you have an EGT guage. I had a Duramax before that I put a "booster on" and a EGT guage. I probably would have burn't the engine up if not for the EGT guage but I am sure the Cummins works differently. After that...

    Coroplast - Insulation - replace?

    Yes you must drop the coroplast and either replace or dry out the insulation or mold and odor will appear. When I dropped mine I went to ACe hardware and got "frame clips" these aid in sealing and reattaching the coroplast.

    Generators

    I do minimal dry camping so getting a generator like a Honda or Yamaha wasn't feasible cost wise. Just needed an occasional dependable 3500/4000 watt gen. Ended up buying a Champion 3500/4000 at Cabelas for $300. Also sold at most all big box stores and Camping World. I ended up mounting it...

    Blowing 30 amp fuse on electric 5th wheel landing gear.

    I had an 09 model 3950 with the electric landing gear. When it first started blowing the fuses (right from the git go) I talked to Heartland and they sent out a heavier duty motor. This helped but did not cure it. Eventually I purchased a dual motor conversion kit and installed it. It...

    Tie down points in our toy hauler.

    I purchased some D rings at the Ace Store. Added about six of them. Measured and drilled so bolts would hit frame underneath and cut rubber floor to set base of D ring into. Worked fine.

    Cyclone underbelly ?

    I had an 09 3950 and felt it was a spring through fall trl. Mine was poorly sealed underneath, skimpy insulation and would not have gone through a cold Idaho sub freezing night without having problems even withthe furnace on high. It had single pane windows like most fair weather trls and had...

    I had a Onan 5500 watt with my old Cyclone 3250 and it was sufficient to run about anything you could load on it. Very good quality unit but costly. My new Carriage Cameo 36fws did not have a gen so I purchased a Champion 3500/4000 watt gen. You could run both ac units but not anything much...

    5th Wheel Hitch Overhang Fiberglass Delamination

    In my previous Cyclone 3950 I had a Onan 5500 that was factory installed. It was a nice clean installation with a sound deadening surround.
