HiLo Repair In Butler, Ohio Is Alive And Well
I talked with Jim & Rob and they are open for repairs. Here's the info:
J & R Repair 145 W. Elm St Butler, Ohio 44822 Phone # 419-883-3001 Fax # 419-883-3002 Email - jrrepair@centurylink.net Jim is Jim Seals and Rob is Rob Laher. The repair facility is at the original location. They had to get different phone numbers due to the change in ownership. |
That is good news! Please don't forget about your local Hi-Lo dealer, he needs to have some Hi-Lo repair business also.
|
Great Dealer if someone needs one here in Western NY.

national list
If someone had the info and/or the resources; a nationwide listing of
dealer or "rv" shops that have experience working on Hi-Lo's would be very helpful. I'm sure throughout the U.S. that there are some shops that do better work than others. I don't know that I would want to take mine to a shop that doesn't have much experience with Hi-Lo's except for some the common stuff (wheels, electrical). |
I ordered some glide blocks and suspension parts from J&R Trailer Repair. Rob was most helpful with getting me the parts, actually they arrived the very next day.
I was very pleased with their operation and look forward to doing business with them in the future. I installed the three glide blocks today in about an hour and a half, I think that I'll attack the suspension tomorrow. Thanks Rob!! |
How did you replace the glide blocks?
Good information and thank you.
Please explain exactly how you replaced the glide blocks. Did you raise the entire the top half with jacks? |

Great post, vannooch! I can visualize what you did here and appreciate the "close quarters" work and having to work "blind". Must have been a whole lot of fun! :D
Do you think you got more clearance by lowering the top only 16" instead of all the way? Thinking about it, I wonder if you might have gotten more with the top even higher? (I'm not trying to "second guess" here but the top could probably be raised and lowered with the rails out until you find an "optimum" position. And maybe that's exactly what you did!) - Jack |
