Inspection in LA

February 03, 2024, 10:00:19 am

I am looking to buy a 2013 Nimbus 4020 in LA and need to have an inspection done. Coach is pretty clean but a has a couple of quirks.
One is a clicking noise behind driver seat when we slowed or parked. Owner thought it might be air ride adjusting.
Has a couple fogged windows and struts on wet bay need replacing.
Owners are very forthright and want us to be comfortable with the purchase.
Anyone know who I can get to inspect this?
Should we think about having someone out of town come here to check it out?
Are there certain things I should be aware of for this year and model?
Thanks
Victor

Keith Risch. Worth the money to get a proper understanding on what you need to look at. Hundreds spent for him to inspect will save you thousands. 936 462-3764
This is my personal opinion from years of watching others use him. I have never met him but would without reserve reccomend him.

I can vouch for Keith and personally wouldn't buy a FT of that vintage without him

Thank you everyone.
Had Full Armor do the inspection, they didn't really know the Foretravel
We bought it and drove it back here to Utah yesterday and it was a good ride.
I will have many questions as I sort out everything as the owners were way to busy to really show us how to do anything.
Thanks again and we are happy to be owners!
