Alignment, Ride Height, New Shocks - Service Centers?

What type of service center (Camping World, truck shop, etc.) do you recommend for having the following services done on my DP MH?

1. Alignment
2. Ride height valves checked
3. Installation of new shocks


2001 Fleetwood Discovery 37

  • Have you considered making an appointment with Freightliner in Gaffney, SC since you will be heading south. Their motor home service center in Gaffney is top notch.

    For that type of work I take mine to the Freightliner shop. If you know of a good independent heavy truck shop, you can take it there. I would not take it to an RV place for that type of work.

    I have a 2005 Fleetwood Excursion 39S - it's the same as a Discovery - basically a taller ceiling.

    X2. Excellent advice. Truck shops will do a much more reliable job.
  • If you can take a quick detour north, Try "Hainesport Auto and Truck" in Hainesport, NJ. . They work on 18 wheelers, and most RVs including Gassers and DPs...have a laser alignment machine. Great paint shop, too.

    I guess it depends where you are located. Here is one of the best places that I know of that are RV specialists and can do a four wheel alignment on any coach. They are in Washington State but they have contacts all over the country that they can recommend. Brazels RV


    Thank you. I am currently in Maryland, but will be heading down south through VA, NC, etc.
