Shocks and oil change

Where is the best place to take a ford chassis motorhome for an oil change (V-10)and to have the shocks replaced. They only have 45,000 miles but the ride is really sloppy and the coach bucks and rolls a lot on certain roads.

  • Try Camping World if there is one nearby. Thing is, oil changing is so easy with a gas motorhome, it's a shame to be paying out anymore than what most would charge for a car. In fact, I'll change out two for what it takes to do a low clearance car in my driveway.
  • As for the shocks, do a search on Koni FSD shocks. A little spendy, but they were the best value for the $ I've spent on my F53.
  • I find that most Ford dealers are very fair priced for both, but almost anyone can change the oil. Its not really any different than any gas engine.
  • mine is ford based and I just take it to my local mechanic for chassis work..

    oil changes I do myself...
    but any shop should be able to do it...

    mine is a 23ft class c
    and the shops I have gone to have never had an issue
