    Fresh water leaking in underbelly

    In my case the plastic 90 degree elbow fitting from my fresh water tank to the fresh water drain line had cracked. This was caused by the fresh water tank support straps rubbing against the fitting when underway. I suggest you fill your tank to the brim and then check for leaks after taking...

    Fresh water tank fill hose elbow broke in half right at tank... Help?

    The fitting that broke connected the tank to the tank drain line. That line starts out as a flex hose and then transitions to a 1/2 pex down pipe to the drain valve. I have decided to replace the 90 degree elbow with a plastic pex adaptor 1/2 MPT to 1/2 pex barb because I'm also worried about...

    Fresh water tank fill hose elbow broke in half right at tank... Help?

    Got the fitting off. Looks like 1/2" mpt to a 90 degree pex cinch elbow. Didn't know pex cinch clamps were used on flex tubing?

    3160 el (Washer dryer box / pantry)

    I loved how this turned out. Cost about $140 on sale from online restaurants supply store. Things stay put. Solid as a rock with floor anchors. We typically unclip and remove the shelf edges after arriving at our destination.

    Utah Trip next summer - questions on UT-12

    Drove both these routes last April and had no problems. Plan out your refueling points ahead of time and use a trucker's guide or google maps/earth to preview the refueling stations. Torrey to Bryce has some very steep grades and I was glad I had installed disc brakes on the trailer prior to...

    Not going to find better customer service

    Once again Heartland goes the extra mile for me. I'm a customer for life. Details follow: Last August Heartland arranged to have Fife RV Center in Tacoma, WA perform the warranty TSB work on my two Dometic Blizzard A/Cs. I also had some minor repairs on my Norcold performed on the same...

    Disc Brake Conversion Bighorn 3160EL

    Many good folks here answered my questions for this little project and I found various install posts with pictures helpful. Here's a quick view of my install. I went with a combo metal and flex line kit so I could still drop the chloroplast if needed for maintenance without always having to...

    ATF: Bighorn - Grey and Black water tank dimensions

    Do you think we will have to lower the tanks or just remove the chloroplast to get access to the sensors?
