    Individual Wheel Dry Weight

    Has anyone completed an individual wheel weight with the coach completely empty? I'm curious to know how well Landmark's are balanced when delivered from the factory.

    Safety chains on Cyclone 3814, where??

    Recently bought a 2011 Cyclone 3814, the previous owner did not use safety chains and I cannot see where they would hook up to. It does have a breakaway cable for the brakes.

    Break Away Safety Wire

    On my new 2010 Cyclone I was looping the break away brake safety wire around the handle lock and realease handle of the Reese 24K hitch. Worked fine for several trips, but got a surprise this weekend when pulling in to a parking lot. In the turn, the cable managed to catch itself under the...

    BigHorn fire

    Hi All, This thread is not intended to demean any of Heartland's products, but rather to hopefully learn something that might save someone's life. The 53 pictures available show fire damage, but yet the 5er was still towable to the insurance salvage auction lot. I suspect that we do not want...
