    Sold our 2016 Sundance

    We sold our Sundance TT today. Many wonderful memories with that camper but we decided to go full-time and bought a Columbus River Ranch for that purpose. Thanks to all the Heartland folks in Colorado that made the rallies fun. We may join in again sometime if they start doing them again. I will...

    Broken spring hanger and cracked frame

    Interesting - maybe they are sourcing their metal stock from China or some other questionable quality distributor.

    Broken spring hanger and cracked frame

    I started cleaning the rig up for a trip next week and found this on the drivers side rear. I took it to my local shop and their welder was between tasks so 2 hrs later I drove away with a cross-bar support and fixed frame. The welder told me it is very common for RV's/Travel trailers to...

    Re: Engineers & Bean Counters = FAIL*UPDATE* I thought I would post an update - I had new Dexter 5.2K axles, 12" brakes, 15" wheels and E rated tires installed, and I kept the stock springs. We just got back from our first camping trip with the new undercarriage. The trailer is very smooth...

    When I buy a house I surely don't expect the foundation to be suspect, but it does happen. We enjoy our trailer and I am going to upgrade to 5.2K axles very soon. If I ever load this thing up for a trip eastbound I would not be able to trust it since we have worked very hard to stay light so...

    As you can tell my defense dept computer doesn't like adding text to this site. ;-) I will also add that I had to have my roof replaced last year due to extensive delamination.
