Greetings

I just took ownership of a Coach House 272XL with 7000 miles on the clock. It was built on the 2021 Ford E-450 chassis. I have a few suspension and steering upgrades I'd like to have installed. Anyone know of a good shop in the Austin/Round Rock, TX area? Thinking Safe T plus, sumo springs, sway control etc

Sure go into MAPS Google and type in the directions the name and NEAR city, State and lots off address and contact info and review info will pop up. But you have to use the word "NEAR" as shown above and you can search for anything even by country name.

In talking to my nearby local alignment shop, he advised that there is ONLY one that does RVs in the MEMPHIS area (HE HAS A BUILDING/ DOOR that is TALL enough). I talked to that alignment shop to see what, if any, other services he offered ... he was very hesitant to talk about even "inspecting exhaust" from his pit... :-) TX cities may have same issue?

(later I lost a 8-ft tailpipe, then later had the CAT stolen, so learned to DIY :-(

Thank you for that tip. Now just need to find which ones have a tall enough garage.

Just my opinion, but before throwing a bunch of money into suspension and steering upgrades, maybe take it to a shop and have them align the front end? We did that with our Aspect and it made a world of difference. The chassis comes from Ford with a default alignment, I doubt any manufacturer adjusts alignment after they build on it.
I did install a SteerSafe but that was mostly for tire blowout control.
