    ATF: Landmark - slide roller and brackets

    We have a 2 year old Landmark Grand Canyon. When we got set up at Southern Oaks RV Park in Aransas Pass, TX we noticed a gouge in the linoleum in front of the fridge. Upon further investigation we found that the brackets on 2 of the rollers (under and near the fridge) had broken. Are these...

    Broken spring hanger and axle shift

    After a crosscountry trip from Virginia to California I found my 2006 3600 Bighorn was not level in spite of a level pad. The reason is a broken hanger plate between the spring and yoke on the passenger side. The spring end is resting on the frame, all the leaves have shifted about a half...

    air conditioning vents

    We have a 2006 3500RL. It has 2 a/c vents in the bedroom, 1 a/c vent in the kitchen area and 2 a/c vents in the livingroom area. More vents in the kitchen and livingroom areas would help keep it cooler. Oh and 1 in the bathroom.

    Microwave Moisture

    We have a 2006 BigHorn 3600RL and had the same problem as well as the wall between the microwave and the cabinet was getting really hot. We put in a Dometic microwave that is meant to be inserted in a closed in space and that took care of 90% of the problem. Once in a while I still get a...

    king mattress replacement

    My husband is having some back problems and we were thinking about replacing our mattress in our BigHorn. Course the corners at the foot of the bed make that a problem since they are rounded. Do you have any suggestions? He needs something that is really firm with a pillow top or an air...

    Front Jacks

    Front Jacks

    Has anyone had a problem with their front jacks on their Big Horn? Ours started clicking like the clutch was slipping. Neither a new gear box or a new motor fixed the problem. It doesn't always happen. Usually if we are having to raise the trailer more than 2 inches or so to get level. We...

    Microwave excessive condensaton

    microwave Well, I used the Dometic microwave today to cook some pasta for 9 minutes. All went well, I was just beginning to see a little condensation on the trim around the microwave. No condensation on the door or clock area. I am beginning to think that the trim kit does not have big...

    Microwave excessive condensaton

    Dometic Microwave I looked on-line and got the phone number for Dometic and found that they are located in Elkhart. Since we were in Elkhart at LSI RV Service (great guys) I had Lance (the owner) call Dometic and find out about the microwave. The trim kit that came with it would not work so...

    Microwave excessive condensaton

    saga of the microwave Well, the Sanyo microwave did exactly the same thing the Sylvania did. When I looked in the installation instructions for the Sanyo it said counter top use only. So we took it back. We found a Dometic microwave that is made for RV's and for a cabinet type installation...
