Just returned from a short trip ( 200 miles) and found the drivers side of the front axle covered in oil. Installed the safety bars and crawled under only to find the source of the leak as the steering box. Still reading the forum posts on that subject but wondering if anyone has recommendations regarding a repair/rebuild facility in central Florida. Coach has about 125K to date. 1995 U300 40'.
Home location is about 20 miles east of Lake Wales - just south of rt. 60.
Thanks,
Jon
Not sure about Fla. Jon but if you don't need the coach during the shipping time I would go with the redhead one,send them yours and just wait,you'll have the best one out there.Think one of the members could borrow you the tool,find a young buck to help you
take it off.It may just need the seal but now would be a good time for a rebuild.
Where is the leak coming from? Pitman arm leak requires removal, some other leaks can be repaired on the coach.
Our mechanic is Paul Yasbeck in Leesburg, FL. He has been the mechanic on our coach for all if it's life except for year 1. He kinda came with the coach. 90% or so of the coaches he works on are Foretravel; he is an x-employee of Foretravel. I strongly recommend him.
In 2016 Paul replaced our steering gear box.
In google it's listed as Paul Yasbeck Construction.
If you need the tools to pull it send me a email.
Plus 1 for Paul Yasbeck. Highly recommended.
