I had the three axle alignment done on our coach the last week in January at Prevost Jacksonville. No maintenance records when we bought the coach in April, so I don’t know when or even if it was ever aligned in the field (72,000 miles). The coach seemed to “wander”, I thought there was a dead spot in the steering box.
First, it was determined the tie rod ends were worn, so three links were replaced. Then using the laser system, the tech took a stack of shims out of the drive axle on the right side. We speculated that they were put in after the coach left the factory as the tech said he had never seen a Prevost come from the factory that far out of alignment.
Between the alignment and the three links, the coach handles much better.

Jon, I haven’t seen the details yet but I definitely want to be included. Please save me a spot. I am looking for the section you mentioned now.

I fixed his double, he’s all in a tither with power outages, no internet and no phone service thanks to mother nature putting the freeze on Knoxville.
You’ll love this… I called his cell phone and he answered!

My hands don’t ache, but I cannot drive for long distances without moving my hands to many positions during the day. Maybe the fact I change seating positions as well as where and how I hold the wheel helps.
A 700 mile day is not unusual for me so I am spending a lot of seat time.

Where are you located, as that West Texas is as big as some States up North?
Bought my coach in Odessa Tx. years ago and found out quick their wasn’t anybody out in that area that could work on the coach part. Tried several back then in 2011. Had mine down for ac (cruise air) and aqua Hot work in the Midland/Odessa area and they were lost. They will tell you “Yes we do” but you will find out quick “No they Can’t”. AC on bus was just as bad. None of the shops would touch it. There was a Stewart Stevenson for the Detroit Engine work. Previous owner took this coach to the Dallas/Ft worth area for work. Live halfway between Houston/San Antonio, 75 miles East of Austin and almost just as bad here. Just got back from Houston Prevost yesterday for Prevost work. .Have a fella out of the Granger (50 miles east of Austin) area that comes down and knows these coaches from top to bottom that works on Coach issues. Don’t know how long that will last as I heard he’s running for Mayor of Granger.

Try this one Jon … No one ever said …. How was the barbeque?

If there is a tentative date and it is close to the upcoming Tennessee Thaw, please let us know. It could save us a quick turn around and about 2000 miles.

Wasn’t a cheap shot at all Liberty owners, just the ones that hobble. In fact if we ever get another bus, it’ll probably have to be a Liberty if we don’t want to give up bus air. Hopefully I won’t be hobbling by then, but I can guarantee I won’t suddenly like the Lennon Sisters! BTW who or how did you get an 8-track in an 06 Liberty ?

Micheal,
Was the guy driving a Country Coach?:) I had to say it……

Wow! The fact that this person, who you did not know, initiated this conversation with someone he did not know is quite revealing. Are you sure his name wasn’t “Richard Cranium?”
I used to think internet forum drama and forum rivalry was unique to motorcycle forums, but I guess not.

Geesh, you guys are worth the price of admission and then some. Maybe you should do a documentary next sales call trip and sell DVD’s.
