I need to start off saying I have one arm so have trouble doing this stuff myself. (I figured someone might recommend I do it because it's "easy". I installed a starter once in a 70's Impala, but it took nearly all day. ) Anyway... can anyone recommend a mechanic in Dallas to install the Roadmaster Steering Stabilizer, a heavier rear sway bar, and new shocks. I also want to have the "cheap handling fix" that moves the front sway bar to the inner hole positions. I also have a hot start problem on my V10 that I need fixed.

The coach is a 2003 Itasca Sunrise with an F53 chassis and a V10 engine. If you know of a good mechanic, I'd be very appreciative.

Thanks,

Chuck

We've got a guy on here, dougrainer, that's a Master Certified RV Technician with 32 years of RV experience.
He's located in Ft Worth. If you need his number contact me or search on his name here and contact him yourself.
He's been pretty good over the years on here helping people.

Nothing is either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

Thanks for the head's up on the Camping World in Fort Worth. That 100% matches what I've heard elsewhere. Wonder how they stay in business? Do you know if the Camping World in Denton is better?

I'll also keep Doug Rainer in mind, but would prefer to find someone closer. My work load makes it hard to do the logistics. Thanks for the information.

We have had excellent service from the Camping World in Ft Myers, Fl. Including the install of a Brakemaster and a Sat dish. I am sure they are not perfect but recommend them.
