Does anyone know were I can find the wiring junction box on a Sundance 5th wheel? Thinking about tieing into that and running new wire to the rear.

here are some photos I took today. Not the best, but maybe take some more tomorrow with real camera instead of the one on my phone.

Hello everyone, I just finished putting my rear hitch on my 5th wheel. It will work great for my fishing boat, bikes, and a platform. It was a little tricky designing something to get by my strongarms and scissor jacks. I went straight across the back and then added kickers that go back...

Do you have any ideas on how to lock the steps? I have had mine off to re-route my ducts. Yes, there is some extra room. How would you lock the stair steps so it wouldn't be a triping hazzard?

Hello, Does anyone have a pin box bike rack on a 2009 Sundance? I have a Short box truck with a auto slider hitch. I was concerned about clearance. I'm just tired of loading them inside the trailer. Thanks

I live near AAC and have used them about 3 times for service. At first, they didn't want to service my sudndance. However, once they started selling Heartland products I have had no problems. Yes, you normaly have to leave your unit for service. It took about a week to get my coach back to me...

The "pin" I'm talking about is the one that is inside the leg extender but, in the storage compartment. I gues it can break if the leg extenders travel to far up. I did remove the bolt that passes through the drive shaft from the motor side to the non motor side and it was not broken or...

I own a 2009 Sundance 2998rb. I always block my front legs at least with 2 or 3 pieces of 1 foot 2x12's. I have a mark on my front legs because I was blowing fusses. Lesson learned. Know I bring it home and only one leg wants to drive down with the motor. I pulled the pin on the long bar...

It took me 2 days to wax my Sundance 2998RB. Also, I waxed the decals. It would take to much time to not wax the decals. I used Maguire Marine wax with a Porter Cable orbitor. It still took me 9 hours. Next time I'm going to find scafolding. Good Luck

Here is a link to the Carefree SOK lll awning http://www.carefreeofcolorado.com/rvmhsa_sokIII.asp?m=01010302 I hope it works because I'm still learning. Thanks, Michigandsl

Hello, I have a 2009 Sundance 2998RB fifth wheel. I need to put slideout awnings on those 3 slideout. It just took camping trip to learn the hard way. I had to get up top and sweep off those slideouts. It's a great view from up top, but quite a few strange looks though. I just wanted to...

Thank you for your help. I believe I was retracting those front jack legs up to high causing the fuse to blow. I have recently followed some of your suggestions by puting a paint mark 1 inch on the legs retracted / extended. Since then I have not blown a fuse. It's my first fiver. To bad my...

The front leg jacks keep blowing my 30 amp in line fuse. When I retract the legs all the way up it will blow the fuse. Any suggestions will be helpfull? Also, I was not connected to my truck. I think it might be a ground wire somewhere, but not sure. Thanks

Hello everyone, I was trying to hook up to my 5th wheel sundance the other day and had some difficulties. I was backing straight on the king pin. The height of the trailer was what me and wife thought it should be, but the locking pin never latched. We tried 3 or 4 times by lowering or...

UPDATE Today, General RV is trying to get Heartland to ship the parts needed over night. I just hope it doesn't take 3 to 4 weeks. Also, just to eliminate any confusion. The dealer that is close to me is not a Heartland dealer.

Thank you for all of your responses. However, the reason I took it back to General RV was because the warranty parts had already been ordered. My wife I inspected the coach 3 weeks before we took delivery. We were hopeing that all the repair work would be done. During are PDI, they couldn't...

I have a 2004 Ford F250 EC FX4 short box 6.0L. I pull a 2009 Sundance 2998RB. I installed some Ride Rite air bags to help keep me level. Sometimes I have felt the coach was pushing me right when going left around a bend. Also, I get a little bounceing side to side after going over highway bumps...

Hello everyone I own a Sundance 2998RB, Today was supposed to be the day that all of my warranty issues were to be finally completed. However, it turned out at the end of the day with me being upset, frustrated, and misled. When the warranty clerk calls and "says your parts are in" and what...

I picked up my 2998 RB this past saturday from General RV. It took us roughly 4 hours to do a complete PDI. I found caulking issues on the roof, outside speaker, tops of slide outs, front fiberglass nose cap on the roof, the antenna. The underbelly in the front had a gap in the front. There...

I have cranked out the main slide and rear bedroom slide, but can't find the one for the master bedroom. I have found a nut type device in the front compartment, but I think that is for the spare tire. Thanks

Hello, I can't seem to find the manual crank for the master bed slideout. I looked in the storage compartment. Maybe it's hidden by all the stuff in that front compartment.

Thanks everyone, I feel more comfortable know with our decision to purchase the Sundance. I'll just keep it at 60mph, watch the fuel gauge go down, watch the tranny temp rise, listen to the kids scream, and remember to just have fun enjoying this great country.

Hello everyone, Me and my wife are purchaseing a 2009 2998RB tomorrow. I was just wundering what things to look at more closely. The main one to check is all the water fittings, but what else?

Thank you everyone for your responses. I just weight my 2004 F250 SB tonight, but it just make me more confused I had full tanks, me , and the pullrite SG in the truck. It's total weight was 7480lb. The steer axle was 4380 and drive axle was 3100lb. Know the confusing part. My axle is...

Does anyone know what the bed rail clearance is on a 2998RB with a 18k Pullrite SG? I didn't realize the Pullrite SG doesn't have a height adjustment. Thanks

I just made an appointment today to have the 18k pullrite superglide and the Ride-Rite air helper springs. I know the Ride-Rite will help on towing level, but will it help me with my TV rear axel weights. If it doesn't then I'm over by 534lb GVWR. The RAWR is 6,084lb. Then if my pin is 2,300...

Thank You guys for all your information. However, I have a question. For example: If my truck weighs in at 7,000lb. + 2,374= 9,374. My concern is that my GVWR is 8,800lb. That setup would put me 574lb over my GVWR if I'm doing it correctly. Also, my GCWR would be 9,374 + 11,870= 18,870lb...

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum, but have been a frequent visitor. I have a 04 F250 4x4 extended cab short box 3.73 LS axel. I'm new to the 5th wheel setup. We are moving from a TT to the FW. So, please be gentle on me. I'm haveing difficulty understanding on how to figure out the weight...
