Hi Folks, I went ahead and bought a 4106 and am driving back to Texas. During fueling I noticed the PO has put spacers under the airbags! I dont know how I missed that. Id like to find a shop around Marianna/Pensacola that could undo that mess so I can get it back to Texas. Any suggestions would be truely welcome as Im not comfortable driving it now.
Thank you !

Tom, what are you calling spacers 1/2 in thick or 2 in thick or more if you can make it to Orange Tx I have a number for a guy there.
good luck
As I posted on BNO;
Might try these guys here, http://www.goodtimetours.com/ (http://www.goodtimetours.com/)
I have never personally dealt with them, but I have heard good things about them!
FWIW ;) BK ;D
I second BK's recommendation of Good Time Tours. I have had work done by them and they are great!

Take the Brent Lane exit off of I-110, go west under the overpass and take a left at the first light. You can see the shop and their buses really well from I-110, however if you are traveling south you will have passed by the exit before seeing them.
Hi Folks,
Just wanted to offer a big thanks to everyone for support and advice. I decided to just drive on at the governed 60mph since it was manageable at that speed. Reached home yesterday about noon. Bus got exactly 7mpg from St Augustine to Pensacola but its jacked a lot higher than normal.
I put more details on BNO including a big assist from a good_samaritan trucker.
Luvrbus, I may take you up on your man in Orange if the local shop estimate turns out to be too high.
If any one has the frame to axle dimension with bus down on stops I could use it to fabricate some original length bump stops.
The good news is it ran like a champ holding its governed mph up hill and down. Virtually no drips even after 1000 miles!
One again, thanks to everyone for the support!
