I had something happen last fall and I want this forums perspective. While raising the power tongue jack to unhitch my trailer, I inadvertently forgot to place my wheel chocks behind my tires. I know, dumb me! When the hitch cleared the ball, the trailer rolled back ( less that 1.5 feet) and the...

Has anyone experienced or heard of this?? The weather stripping on the rear upper corners seemed to have shrunk and detached. Both ends seem to be attached so I cant simply pull/slide the stripping tight to reattach it to the curved section.

Hi everyone,. Just dropped my 2017 Torque tq31 at Les Shwab Tires to replace the oem Rainer st 10 ply that came with the trailer for Geostar 14 ply. When we inspected the rim we discovered that it is only good for 80psi, not 120psi which is the max psi for the Geostars. The technician said we...

Has anyone used Eternabond tape to tape down your solar panels in lieu of mechanical fasterners? The thought of drilling into my roof makes me nervous. My plan is to top tape all four sides of the solar panel down but I'm concerned about creating an area for rainwater to pool on top of the...

Hi all, As I'm in the purchasing phase of my little solar project I couldnt help notice the lack of choices when it comes to flush mounted mppt controllers. As of now, I'm leaning towards this model... http://www.blueskyenergyinc.com/products/details/solar-boost-3000i Can anyone recommend...

so I have a dumb question, On the roof of my trailer, the cable that has the male connector is labeled "minus". The other cable is not marked. But on my solar panel, the connector on the negative wire has the same connector. I will not be able to connect the two as the connectors are the same...

Taking the plunge, I purchased two 100w/18v solar panels this morning https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DXYNGA0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and plan on purchasing this MPPT Controller: http://www.blueskyenergyinc.com/products/details/solar-boost-3000i I chose this...

I've been researching solar power ad nauseum and still cannot figure out what I would need... I currently have one 12v battery and would like to have a solar system powerful enough to: keep the battery charged, have enough solar power to power my LED lights for say 3 nights as well as having...

I've been reading up on solar and find that I have many unanswered questions... Can someone confirm that the cables picturedd are for connecting a solar panel(s)? If so, are the connectors a common type? My trailer came "solar prepped", does this mean all that's needed to trickle charge my...

Does anyone have experience with this shower door? Looks like a great alternative to shower curtains.. https://www.stoett.com/nautilus/

Spoke to Heartland and they confirmed that the secondary grey & black tanks are both 38 gal. Good to know as it's not stated on any literature I've see so far....

Needed to create a mount that would utilize the backer board for the LCD mount yet keep my LED dvd combo centered on the wall. The backer board is located too high, so I took some 1x3 pine and sanded it smooth. Mixed two stains together, light walnut stain with some ebony stain and replicated...

Can someone verify which material is used on the Torque bumper pulls??

Hi all, Looking for input from everyone to see if I need to be concerned with these wrinkles on my fairly new Torque 31. These wrinkles run east to west and looks to be every 4', perhaps right where each of sheets of plywood meet under the membrane. Weather here has been very, very wet, Temps in...

My first RV had a manual awning and I made sure to secure it while driving using heavy duty cinch straps. My new RV has an electric awning and am wondering if others secure theirs during transit. Unless I do not understand the mechanics of a powered awning, I assume that since it is geared, that...

As I haven't had the chance to use my patio deck, I thought it would be a good idea to set up the patio and play around with it. Turns out when the cables are attached and the ramp lowered, it only lowers about half the way , at roughly a 45° angle! I'm fairly certain I used the correct mounting...

Installed a dimmable 120v LED light to the underside of the happy jack bed. The center of the bed was measured out and holes where drilled to run the wiring through the bed and under the mattress. 12' of extension cord was needed to run the bed up as well as down and dressed neatly. The light...

Took a few quick pics of our tq31... Can't wait for summer to come!

Like many of you have, my torque has a place to mount an additional flat screen TV in my bedroom as well as the garage - besides the factory tv installed in the living room. . In my bedroom/garage, there's a 110v outlet as well as a coax connection next to the mount LCD sticker. My question...

Hello all, For some reason I'm having difficulty wrapping this around my head. I may have read the answer to my questions in my owners manual but simply cannot remember. First, am I correct in saying that when my genset is running, it is automatically charging my battery? Secondly, if it is...

Dear Heartland, Can someone verify the capacities of the 2nd grey and 2nd black tank on my torque tq31? I have yet to find the answer in any official heartland literature. Thnx.

Hello, can someone please answer the following question... While powering my rv using the onan genset, do you have the ability to use the electric heating element on my WH rather than run it on LP?

Does someone know how many feet the kitchen and sofa slides add to the width of a XLR trailer? I'm having a driveway poured at 14' wide in anticipation of my new Torque TQ 31 and would like the trailer to stay within that 14' measurement. I guestimated the slides would extend approximately 2'...

Can someone please tell me if the king sized beds that come in the TQ XLR's are true residential size?

Just placed a down payment on a 2017 Torque TQ31! Options chosen are the Onan 5.5 genset, 2nd AC and the rear patio deck. Although we have yet to see this model in person, we think the photos we've seen on the net have been a good representation of what we can expect in the rv. Super excited...

Hello, We have sold our current RV and plan on upgrading to a larger one. Our search included the Keystone Impact311, Impact 312, Keystone Carbon 35, Heartland Torque TQ31 and the Heartland Torque TQ 32. I think we have finally settled on the TQ 31. The additional half bath and the ability to...
