Default Hire help to fix Cables

Good morning,
Is anyone in Phoenix AZ that I could hire to put a new set of cables on? I have all the instructions to do it myself, I honestly just don't have the tools/time to do it. I am pretty sure one snapped putting it up a week or two back, as now I can't lower it.
The trailer is not stored at my house, I don't have access to tools super easy ect. So finding someone to hire would be super helpful on some of the things I can't do on my own.

What would you charge or who do you know?! TIA

Default Broken cables

A member of our HiLo club with a 28ft. HiLo had the cable replaced at our HiLo dealer. The price was $1,8000. Hopefully someone will come up with a solution for you. This was a few years ago.

Sounds like a lot, we don't even have a HiLo dealer in AZ... and the few shops I have reached out to it don't even want to touch it.

Default Find a handy man

Find a handy man that can read and follow directions. The how to directions are posted on this website. Rv shops charge a lot per hr. This job takes at least eight hrs. to do. Haven't had to do this repair.

we had ours replaced on a 1999 at just a camper repair as I broke the cables as a screw on the track worked out and we did not know why it would not raise. then the camper place broke them a couple times till they figured out the problem and it was 2,000.00 and that was in 2012 . suggest to get heavy duty cables and a good repair shop .

Default Cable replacement

I sent you a PM with name and phone of a bona fide Hi-Lo mechanic. I would not trust this job to just anyone.

Would you share the mechanics name with me as well? I'm in Tucson.
