    Great idea Joe.... so hard to know where to go off the top of your head when you're away from home and even when we're home at times !!

    Maybe it can be set up for us??

    I've found local or small Bus Lines to be quite handy. Often with older mechanics who have worked on everything and hoard parts that may be hard to find locally especially in my "dated" coach. Arrow Bus in East Denver just off I-70 was great for me last summer when having power steering trouble.

    I usually have more confidence in the personal testimonials than the bought and paid for listings in a directory. Therefore, everyone keep the good recommendations coming.

    Arrow Stages here in Denver has been a great asset. Gene, Svc Mgr is a good guy and pays attention to details.
    EVen let me hang out in the garage.
    As said prior, we have had good experiences with Craig and Todd in the Bus Barn at Stewart and Stevenson in Commerce City Co.,
    They are the ones who, recharged our OTR with the R-12 I provided and installed 6 rear shocks for 500 dollars. WE would have put the shocks on, but haven't yet figured out how to get the bus rear in the air.
    We will be replacing some Norgren with the spool kits, and Idon't know how we will be doing that yet.,

    I agree with Les, one could conceivably spend as much time weeding through generic companies in a "paid for directory" as it would take on you own from companies on the Internet. It would be very helpful to have our own list of member recommended facilities. I don't think it would be to hard for Jamie to compile the information with assistance from the membership. Jamie, what say you?
