RE: Happy Jack Bed Failure
Reinforcing our rear beds especially the top is on my to-do list.

RE: x-chock Tire Locking Chock
I have a set and they do help to keep movement down. They are pricey though. The cheapest I've seen them was Camping Workd for $39.99 each

RE: BlowMax Tires
I'd found out what the warranty is on the OEM tires. Id also keep a log & If you start seeing premature wear I'd call them & see if you can get a credit towards new tires. I did this with my first Raptor and was able to get ~75% covered towards upgraded Maxxis (15" wheels). Also as mentioned look underneath your rims should be stamped with info on it.

RE: info needed please 2012 cyclone 4014
One of the benefits of the other forum & a reason I would consider Cycline for my next TH is the fact you can at least feel a connection to the factory. AJ Jones is the GM for the toyhauler division & it appears he posts frequently. This appears to be a secy trend that many conpanies are doing these days & whether its a GM, Manager, engineer or technician its a great thing for the customer.
As far as THs go, Cyclone is one of the more popular ones. I noticed they have 6k axles & not 7k.

RE: In search of top 5 quality/durable toy haulers, 14+ Garage
To the OP. I think rough roads need defined. Ive owned 2 Raptors and have taken both on some rough roads. Forest Service roads with ruts & wash boards but typically no more than 5 miles at a time.
Driving slow sometimes really slow helps. I felt if I drove fast say 40+ there would be more problems over time & continously driving that way. I like the interior of the Raptors, Cyclones, Fuzions, XLRs etc. feel more like a reg fiver as opposed to a big box. Taking it off road there are always screws coming loose that weren't screwed into anything and some other small issues but nothing that to me can't be fixed or dealt with.
There are mods you can do to the suspension that will help.

RE: Front landing gear broke again!!
How is yours set up? My 2009 has square tubing with the motor on the right side with a set screw. The screw backed out & was hitting the motor eventually breaking the screw. But I've never had the cross member break.

RE: Anybody rig up an outside projector and screen?
Not to be a killjoy, but putting up an outdoor screen and playing the sound loud enough to hear from the next site could be considered a "public performance". Imagine the chagrin of a campground owner when they get served by the owners of the copyrighted content shown on the screen. Watch any NFL telecast and there will be a warning about such showings requiring the express permission of the NFL. And yes, they DO bring legal actions.
You obviously don't do much boondocking

RE: Anybody use one of these little solar chargers?
I had 15w on my 4 GC2 and they were never really charged tip top while in storage. And that is with a cut-off switch. Had 5w on my truck and that battery went dead anyway while in storage.
If spending money I recommend a larger system of 40w to 120w for stoage and a good controller.
This is good advice and I recommend spending a little more for more Watts

RE: Help Me Please Find a good Heartland Road Warrior dealer
Holman RV is known for having some of the lowest prices in the country. You can get an auto generated price quote sent to your email. Use that for some bargaining leverage with your local dealer. They are located in Ohio but Shouldn't cost you over $2500 to have it delivered to your door. Their prices will give you an idea of what you can expect to get off MSRP. Cheers

RE: Awning mat
we have a 40' Raptor that has 2 doors. I bought this mat in a different color. It has grommets installed on the corners. We have owned ours for 7 years now. It has held up well to the elements...rain, snow, dust, mud, etc. and I'd buy another one.

RE: The time has come, new toy hauler
We find the same thing, like the bedroom on this one but the living room on that on or the garage on the other one. It's too bad someone doesn't offer one that has a combo of all thee.

RE: XLR Thunderbolt
I have a friend who's television is mounted above the door. He complains about having to look up high & wishes it was more at a level seating height. Just something to think about.
One floorplan I like for tv viewing is the Cyclone CY 4000 Elite

RE: Replace the cracked XLR with?
How much Is the repair cost? What's the dollar amount that the dealer is giving you for trade in. What's the price of the new TH? I'm thinking you could sell your current TH to the dealer & maybe purchase or shop prices from another XLR dealer for less. Or you could sell it out right & disclose the repair and maybe get more or less or fix it then get rid of it. Hopefully Forest River will cover some of the repair costs. I'd still shop multiple dealers for best out the door price without a trade in to have some leverage.
