Re: Dot & Georges .
Thanks for that pm info Norman. Turns out that because of the air bag suspension they will have to take the front axle out and then they bend it to adjust the thingo to the Aust road camber. We called the mobile mob that do the trucks (alignments) and he asked no questions about the bus but his "just looking" price was $600-$800 no questions to me means no job for them mobile or not so I called the place we used with the winnie Hancock & Just and had a good talk to the boss (a kiwi) he asked a few Q's and explained that they couldn't do our job via the mobile set up as he would have to have more equipment to bend the axle etc etc. Now I say" fek bro, how much is that gunna be"? He said the job would be $600 all up as long as there were no real big probs but we also would get a discount (the old farts one)and that he would look after me woo hoo my luck has changed
So we are booked in next Wednesday, he reckons the whole job should be about 4 hrs. This mob have such a good reputation and their service is fantastic I would gladly recommend them. He asked so many questions even down to the tyre size, the first bloke asked nil. Looks like we also have ourselves a car, they accepted our offer and requests for extras like tow bar, roof rack, an extended manufacturers warranty ($1k) the next big service free, new tyres as I thought the ones on there must have been swapped from another car due to their wear on a car with 38k or the speedo had been wound back??, a full tank of fuel on pick up, the repair of 2 small nicks in the back seat cloth. They also are waiting for a part to fix one of the reversing sensor things so we won't be picking it up till next week then the tow hitch will need to be fitted etc never ending is it.
Have to go and get a pic of the newest thing G has just made for the bus, hang around for a while
