Camper Servicing or Repairs in Brisbane

Hi all
Need to get the Goldstream serviced before some longer trips. Service brakes and bearings and add a few things like gas bottles to the drawer bar and additional external gas bayonet.
Can anyone recommend a firm on Brisbane's northside to perform this work.
Thanks

Mate, if you do take it to someone ask if you can watch them do it, that knowledge could come in very handy if your out the back of nowhere and need to fix it for yourself.

checking/repacking bearings is a walk in the park. very easy to do one weekend arvo.
brakes are a little fiddly but again easy enough. with a small amount of instruction.
as for adding stuff to the draw bar. there are a few places that would or otherwise just about any welder/engineer could add the gas bottles and stuff.

I'm fairly handy and give most things a go but a bloke needs to know limits..
I've replaced bearings before, just a bit wary of brakes and works requiring a gas licence. Plus my spare time is limited.
Thanks for the suggestions
