You might also check with C and G in Bellflower for an estimate. Long time AS repair shop with good parts inventory.

There is Sierra trailer in Grass Valley. I have no experience with them but might be worth a look.

Based on our experiences in Southern CA, I would steer clear of C&G and go to Uwe.
