    Mushrooms anybody?

    I thought of that also... So I called heartland and spoke with Eric in customer service (very very cocky & arrogant by the way) and he told me that "condensation" from the frig wouldn't happen?? He then said that the repair work i had done last July, having "Capital RV in Elkhart" reseal...

    What makes a good "Quality" trailer in your opinion?

    Quality... it's kind of a nebulous thing "Unclear, vague, or ill-defined " everybody has their own idea of what quality is or should be. However... Quality to me is a very measured thing and can be linked directly back to the manufacturer, and how they respond to a problem. For me, i haved had...

    Leak In Bedroom Slider

    Re: ATF: Bighorn - Leak In Bedroom Slider Your Rig should be as level as you can get it. The tops have a pitch (or should) where the water will run off when level. Findling a leak on a slide can be frustrating at best, we had a leak on our main slide that took over a year to find, not good...

    Spring Cost??

    Does anybody have any photos, or a good explanation of what a "Flat" spring looks like? Currently my springs are, or seem to be flat in the center but the ends still bow up a bit, not entirely flat all the way across. I would think that the springs should have a even radius through out the...

    Roof nail??

    I noticed this weekend there was about a 1/2" tall pointy "object" sticking up under the rubber roof by the ladder. I couldn't tell what it was but i'm guessing it was a roofing nail or staple, I think. I don't want it to poke through the rubber, I wanted to put a small block of wood over it and...
