Personally, I'd take the coach to a truck front end/suspension shop for a proper alignment.

My past dealings with DeMontrond was over 10 years ago. They are not cheap, and the wait time is long. They work they did was OK.

Unless something has changed in three years, they don't have equipment, experience, capabilities or a few other things I can't say on this forum to do any chassis work. I purchased my mh there and never had a satisfactory visit with the service department. As recently as last year, Bob Tiffin would authorize taking his mh's to a Houston area independent shops for warranty repairs rather than taking it back to DeMontrond. Of course this was just my experience with DeMontrond.

Key question- ask them the procedure they use to align a mh. If they don't mention checking the ride height before doing the alignment, run.

clubmed98: I had excellent alignment service at Beasley tire service (11802 eastex freeway US 59, 1-800-648-6882) also have used Cummins Southern Plains (7045 North loop 610 est, 713-679-2220). Beasley is first choice but both service large motorhomes and tractor-trailer rigs etc.
