Help axle seized while traveling in ft worth

Anyone know who I can call in ft worth area to fix seized wheel bearing. Would prefer mobile, but will settle for the name of repair shop to have the Montana towed. Also need the name of tow company.

Thanks

Hopefully you wont have to do what I did when I had a bearing problem. Had to get a whole new axel from Dexter.

Rays Champion Spring on I35W in South Fort Worth has at least 40 years experience. ExploreRV has limited facilities. McClains/CW share a facility, also on I35W in South Fort Worth. Encira RV in Alvarado has EXTENSIVE facilities and staff. Sorry for your trouble, PM me, if you need assistance. I live within 50 miles.

If when the bearing seized it damaged the spindle then you will be faced with replacing the complete axle. Have you removed the wheel and inspected the bearings and spindle, that would be my first step.

I had both my axles replaced by Dexter, they were fantastic to deal with and their customer service was top notch. Your profile does not show what the age or model of unit you have. Is it still under warranty.

If you contact Dexter you will need the axle information and the serial number stamped into the axle usually around the center of the axle.

Cannot help with information on repair facilities other than when you google Dexter axle Ft Worth there are several suppliers in the area, you might try : http://www.capleshaw.com/

Good luck with the repairs.
