I brought a 25' caravan back from qeensland yesterday and was having a break and checked tyres etc, I noticed one of the wheel bearings was very very hot, (burnt finger).
Finally found a place called Trail-A-Van in
Toowoomba at 4.00pm.
They spent over an hour on the problem (it was stuck to the hub) and charged a very reasonable price.
The thing that I was impressed with was that they were quite busy, but I did not have to plead with them to do the job.
They had the van off the street and working on it within ten minutes.
No, I don't know them from a bar of soap, but it was great to get the job done quickly by pleasant people.

That is what you get in the country. I have achieved this many times. But it is dying art.
