Re: When to walk away.. Reply #50 – February 09, 2022, 11:34:46 pm Did you skip the shocks or were they already done ? just bags and shocks I bought to DIy are half your expenditure . Lucky I had new tires already, Plan to pull the wheels and do brakes, bags , shocks , wheel seals soon, also the dryer .Quote from: Elliott – February 09, 2022, 10:49:27 amJason here's where I'm at after my first year of ownership. My guess is this coach will need much of the same. Mine was in pretty good shape when I bought it and some of the work listed here had cheaper alternatives or was simply preventative. Quote Selected

I onesie-twosied my bags over a few different jobs for reasons that were out of my control, so they're still on my list. I'll probably have a shop do them though... I have no interest in pulling the wheels on my coach and I'd rather not remove the fenders again. Quote Selected 1 Likes
Re: When to walk away.. Reply #52 – February 10, 2022, 07:39:51 pm Yes, definitely do bags and shocks together. May not save you any money, unless the shop is charging you for actual work time. WILL have happier mechanics. We did the bags one year and the shocks the next. Some of the bags were kind of in the way of the shocks.FWIW, seven of the eight bags were changed in about 15 minutes/bag. The eighth one made up for the other seven. They finally ended up cutting the old bag up to get it out of there. The new bag must have been paying attention because it went right in without any fuss. Quote Selected
