Hello everyone,

I recently moved to the Sacramento, CA area and am looking for references of reputable RV service shops; preferably someone that has experience working with our old coaches.

At this point it would be nice if I could find a place that does 'full service.' I have very little personal time and at the moment I need carburetor work and would also like the option of some plumbing and air-bag work/replacement.

If anyone out there has any recommendations I'd love to hear from you. Smile

Thanks!

you are a few hours away, but Jim Kanotomata at Applied GMC is in Freemont. Cannot do any better than that unless of course if you were near Florida and then you would have Jim Bounds.

Don't know any of the shops down there, but beware.


Seems most RV repair places claim to know more
about our coaches than they really do.

They can learn as they, go but you can pay
dearly for their education.

Jim K knows his stuff and is cheaper in the long run.



My local outfits tried a couple of times to adjust
my carb with poor results.
I finally ordered a rebuilt one which is an exact match.


Let me know if you head up Chico way.

Ben, Just drive down to Jim K's in Fremont. You will be more than happy with
the service. It's a "one stop shop". Leave the coach there and have someone
drive you back. You will not be disappointed.

Thanks
