Hi all! I live in the Denver area and I'm looking for a good place for general maintenance, and maybe some suspension upgrade work. I have a 2016 Winnebago vista lx 27n on ford f53 chassis. Any one have a shop they really like?
Thanks

For Ford F53 chassis work, there is a Rush truck center located in Commerce City. They are also a HD Ford truck dealer. They used to be called Mountain States Ford a few years back. They work on HD Ford and even the big rigs. They know what they are doing and apparently very proud of it as their labor rates are about $125 per hour. It's one of the only Ford places that I know of that are trained to service the big Fords. Theyvarevusually booked a couple of weeks out. Good luck!

Here's an update on looking for service in the Denver area. After a very negative experience with camping world. I went in search of some place to install sumosprings on my 2016 Winnebago class A. I called Denver spring and suspension and they set an appointment to get the install. They had me in and out quickly did a great job. They all had a lot of knowledge about their products and gave me a lot of information on my setup. They also fixed the rear stabilizer bar that was loose. I would highly recommend them!

I took my Thor ACE 30.1 to Rush a couple of months ago to have the front end aligned, oil changed and to have them flash the ECM to fix the Tow-Haul downshift problem that some 2016's had (apparently anything manufactured before May 2016). The woman who handles appointments wasn't the most friendly person, but I had a great experience with the service guys (across the street from the main Ford storefront. They promptly let me know that they were backed up in alignments and updated me on the transmission diagnostic. I did have to tell them about the TSB on the transmission, and after that they took care of it.

Good to hear about Denver Spring and Suspension. I installed a SuperSteer track bar and Koni shocks myself and am still considering SumoSprings. SumoSprings aren't something I want to take on myself and I was wondering if DSS would do F53 chassis work. When/if I decide on the Sumos, I'll contact them about doing the install.
