Have used a fair bit of Kings stuff, still working well after a few years, mostly the failures I have come across are poor set up of gear and brand name means nothing... Recently have fixed son in laws set up and he was pissed as this time he used a sparky, luckily he was visiting the ancient truckie when it failed .......... Ive seen some of the work done on some rigs and its not professional at all, mine even looks better which is saying something ... use a tradie by all means but know whats going on if your going to do some travelling.

I like to do my own then when out back of no where if it fails I know whats going on, only a theory as nothing has broken............ especially as I wander around place swhich mechanics are scarce and sparkies are unheard of, they still use tilly's.

Im careful on who I allow to 'play with my toys'....a sign out the front doesnt constitute competence....most times Im WITH the tradesman performing the work...gives me all the knowledge I need if needed, and, I can opt for upgraded 'bits n pieces' while the jobs being done in front of me, can also take onboard any tips/hints/reasoning behind what, where and why....works for me
