Oil, Tranny, Axle - Oct. 1st, 2018

We have both been mindful of the fact that the motorhome needed to stay up to date on its service. We knew she was due for an oil change as well as a Transmission oil service. So, we took the rig in to get those two maintenance items taken care of. We were told this would be about a 3 hour service and that we should be able to pick it up around noon.


Well, Noon time came and we called to find out the status. It turned out that one of the rear axle seals was leaking and there was a broken weld on the landing gear used to stabilize the rig when it is parked. Though it meant we would spend money we had not planned on, they said they could get the work done by close of business and we decided to have it done. We were not terribly surprised at this development given the fact that we had the axle seal replaced just a few years earlier. The bonus to having this done is that now the breaks on the motorhome are both current on the rear of the rig.

Going to Sacramento Truck center has never been a cheap venture, but we never feel like they do anything but a quality job for us. As always, our three dogs are the best, they just hang out with us in the Jeep all day long until it is time to pick up the rig. :-)

Safe Travels all!
