I just had Ultra Power installed on my 04 Winnebago Adventurer 35U W-22 and all I can say is WOW! I had the service done at Champion Frame-Align (Authorized Workhorse Facilty} in Elgin, IL. Tel: 847-742-9294. This facility is ALL PRO in every detail. In addition to the UltraPower, they leveled my leaning coach, installed 4 Koni FSD Shocks, added the Davis TruTrac, Roadmaster Front & Rear sway bars, Front end aligned, changed my serp belt, oil/lube, repaired my dash A/C, installed steering bell crank zerk and even drove it over to Inland Detroit Diesel/Allison in Carol Stream, IL for a Transyd fluid change. My motorhome is absolutely amazing in the way it performs and handles with the Ultra Power and chassis mods. I highly recommend this faclity from any midwest location for your motorhome chassis needs. I dealt with George who is great guy and attentive to your concerns. I'm Rudy. Tell him I sent you....

Rudy, you'll be very happy with the UltraPower, you feel the power it just want to continue to pull. Koni's are great also. Enjoy

It cost me 5k for everything and worth every penny. The before/after power & handling difference is incredible. It will keep my eyes off a new DP for a while..........I hope.............maybe...............we'll see.

Seems like some of you have nothing better to do than sitting around nit picking someone else for upgrading their motorhome. He obviously likes the mods he made so leave him alone. If you didn't make any mods to your motorhome then more power to you. Consider yourself lucky. Contary to your believes, some motorhomes do require some mods to make the handling acceptable. I happen to own one of those motorhomes. A passing semi used to pull me a half way into the next lane regardless of what I did. I have driven semis for several years so I think I understand what handling for a big rig is all about. My safety and the safety of others on the road with me means much more then recovering the cost of mods or trade-in value. After the mods I made the motorhome stays in the lane, drives straight as a string and is uneffected by passing semis. I don't care if the mods cost $50 or $5000, the rig is now safe to drive. It's inmaterial whether I recover the cost of the mods, safety comes first.

I think people would JUMP at the chance to buy a coach with all those SOUGHT AFTER aftermarket upgrades.Just because your happy with your coach,does'nt mean someone else can't UPGRADE their's.I know which coach would be more comfortable on a ten hour drive!Aftermarket chassis upgrades were developed because of complaint people had driving their unit's.And if they are happy with what they did then you should be happy for them,after all you did'nt spend the money on their coach tey did!
