OK, so "finally", the first alignment shop got a new bushing in (no attempt to additional charge surprise surprise!!!), put the springs back in and told us OK to collect at lunchtime today. We have now taken it to another very busy shop in Calgary, that has kindly offered to check it all through for us as an assessment to ensure we are safe and "if" there is any other work needed doing then of course they'll advise and charge us for that. The second opinion assessment is complimentary to give us peace of mind. Hopefully this new place won't just "find" things that don't need doing but genuinely if anything "should" be done. This second shop did confirm that what was done by the other shop appeared to be in the ball park on price, but they were appalled how long they had our RV for.
Thanks again for all your encouragement and sharing of your experiences, it's much appreciated.
FTW.
