Is Luke and his bunch at US Coach located either in Chico or Chino?  Are they THE CROWN COACH people?  If soos, then nobody else would even touch my Crown-To-Be except them.   And, $1000 bucks for a complete look/see/maintenance would be money very well spent.  HB of CJ :) :) :)

Sorry HB but they are in Jersey and are the guru's of GM, and MCI coaches. Not that they don't know alot about other coaches, but they have the parts books memorized on GM's and MCI's!  FWIW ;D  BK  ;D

IM,
You will not be unsatisfied with US Coach. Very professional, and very customer oriented. As stated previously, you may come with a written list of objectives to be accomplished this visit. Bring old clothes and ask to observe them and ask questions.
I thought I knew some about diesel cars, but they put on a wonderful session of learning for me. I have been going there for four years and never come out feeling fleeced.
Once called them, driving 95 SB thru Richmond with problem and with their direction, I corrected it at the next fuel stop. :)
Great people in this community, None nicer and more helpful than Luke, Bill & Bill Jr. I only wish I could remember the gentleman who installed my windshield last year.

Good Luck
Gary

Perhaps it's time for an oil drop anyway. A full wet service plus inspection would probably be money well spent.

Over the past 15 years Luke has done major work on my MCI and has shipped me needed parts.
In all cases his prices were fair, the work excellent, and the parts correct.
Put me down as a very satisfied customer.

Only thing I don't like Luke sells is his gaskets I don't know who cuts those for him but they are not much,the other parts he sells I have no problem with

LUKE at US COACH

Hi Folks:  Phones are quiet today and after a couple of weeks thought it was time to catch up on the Boards. Noticed this was a 2008 thread which was brought to light and would like to mention that our labor rate today (2015) is $95.00 hr.

I can't thank everyone enough for the kind words and support that converted coach community has given our business over the years.

The good Lord willing, we will keep at this for a few more years and look forward to meeting and/or speaking to you in the future.

Happy & SAFE!! Bussin' to All.

There are a lot of times I could buy something off of Ebay but I make the effort to buy it from Luke. He has located some non existent parts for me before like the steering arm I needed for my steering mod. We need to support this guy and keep him around!

Good timing. I need the rubber hinge for battery door and a wiper fluid jug for my 1984 MCI MC9. I am in Edmonton and Google can not find US Coach, can someone please forward me their contact info. Thanks

Luke and his Guys are the best, went down last spring with my son looking for odds and ends for my 4104 and of course they had the parts, just looking around his yard and garage is worth the trip down there.
My son spotted a rusted old worn turbo laying on the scrap pile in his yard and asked if he could have it ( these teenagers today are turbo crazy lately), Luke said sure and my son took it home stripped it, painted it and now sits on his dresser as "turbo art".
Thanks again Luke , hope to see you again soon.  Nelson
