RE: 2019 Northern Lite 10-2
I believe the 0P is replacing a interior window shade not an awning. NL installed it whether they made it or not

RE: 2019 Northern Lite 10-2
I would contact NL again. They should be able to assist you with the replacement process.

RE: HappiJac 4500
The 4500 front jacks on our Bigfoot started binding terribly about 3 years ago. We replaced them with 4800 jacks. They are 3” longer, run slower and have more weight capacity than the 4500’s. Made a huge difference loading/unloading. More stable and secure. Tha 4800’s are still in production. We have had zero problems with the rear jacks/motors

RE: Bigfoot Customer Service - Above and Beyond
We have had the same experience when emailing Bigfoot. Grant responds every time no matter how insignificant a question may be. He is very experienced and provides great customer service. Agreeably rare! Glad you are enjoying your Bigfoot!

RE: Airbags not working with overloads
I’ve been using upper Stable Loads with Firestone air bags for many years. Put just enough air in the bags so the Stable Loads are in contact with the over load springs. For my rig it’s about 20 lbs.

Check the tang on the locks and make sure they’re tight so the inside of the door is snug to the gasket. Sometimes the screw loosens or you may have to bend the tang to adjust tightness. Water will collect in propane compartment because BF removes lower door gasket to allow propane to escape in the event of a leak. A strip of aluminum and gasket to bridge the gap will help stop water collecting.

RE: 3M 5200 Marine Sealant et al
I used 3-M UV 4000 marine sealant on compartment doors and horizontal seam on our Bigfoot. I believe Bigfoot and Northern Lite use this product at the factory.

RE: Bigfoot carpeted ceilings -clean, remove, cover?
Mold and Mildew Stain Remover by Zep works well but it has a strong odor that takes a few days to dissipate after use

RE: Northern Lite 10-2 maiden voyage
Hi Jeff and congratulations on the NL!
I use our dually as a daily driver as well. I installed upper stable loads,air bags and Rancho 9000 xl shocks when we first got the Bigfoot. I found the best unloaded ride without lowering tire pressure was to remove the rear upper stable loads, lower the air bag pressure to 5 lbs and set the rear shocks to #1 setting. When loaded the air bags are set to 20 lbs.
We use a Weber Q grill. If you want to connect to your propane from the camper you will have to remove the regulator from the grill.
You should definitely measure your camper height and write it down!
Enjoy!

RE: Weatherproofing 04 Bigfoot
A 3000 series Bigfoot is not a two piece shell like a 2500 or 1500 series. It has a Fibercore wall structure and a seamless rubber roof. I don’t believe Heng’s was used al all on the 3000 series from the factory.

RE: Torklift Talons
Talons are the way to go. After almost 9 years of cleaning rust off the steel Torklift tie downs,I installed Talons. It’s only been 2 years but no problems at all. The frame mounted assembly is stainless steel and the inserts are powder coated aluminum. Strong, lightweight and no rust. The steel tie downs got so bad it was almost impossible to install the inserts. Definitely worth it
