Need Alignment Shop-Central Indiana

I'm planning to install new Bilstein Struts on my Sprinter Motorhome but am having difficulty finding a truck shop in the Indianapolis area that could do it. I prefer one with experience with Sprinters. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to go to Mercedes-Benz in Indy as I've had 3 bad experiences there including one related to front end alignment. Thanks.

I talked to a local tradesman that had a Sprinter and asked him where he serviced his van.

My first alignment was done at a shop that aligned school bus. My MB dealer has a standalone service building, but couldn't do alignments because the RV was too big.

Some Freightliner service centers are MB authorized repair facilities. I had most of my warranty service performed at the Freightliner service, because they are 30 miles closer than the MB dealership. The dealership is easier to schedule.

Call Carmichaels truck service in Bloomington Indiana. They aren't cheap, but they are the best IMO. A total alignment for my MH cost $300 5 years ago. It was well worth the money, my MH drives very easy now. Since then, they've replaced my broken exhaust manifold, replaced lift pump, and other items which I've forgotten.
They work on MH chassis, but no coach/house repairs.
BTW, they have mobile service trucks too.
