Hendersons Line Up in Grants Pass OR, keeps a list of shops they've worked with and will align the way we're talking.
The "long" Class C's, if they have the appropriately stretched Long Wheelbase, will wear the front end faster than a short RV. This is because the wheelbase allows front axle loading to approach maximum. That in turn means more wear, but it needs a heavy front end not to wander. Too short, wanders and may overload the rear.
Take-off front axles and brakes from shops that convert E-Series to 4x4, are economical replacements, and the brakes will probably be an upgrade.
