Takes guts to show that their product isn’t invincible but they do show how much it takes for it to break. They do go hard in testing their trailer. Dam I want one
Im sure its a blow to your pride Justin, but you kept it in the show and that shows serious integrity. I hope we get to see whats going to be done to toughen the trailers up even more!
this is why everyone around the world, in every country; wants a patriot camper, wants a super-tourer, and knows no one tests like you do! sorry to see the snag in the trip but glad everyone was okay! im sure you guys find a work around like you always do! thanks for another great episode!
Wow what a heartbreaker . over landing in the wild and rough tracks of the out back of any country can be hard on rigs , but a good out look on life can get you through any thing , plus that is part of over landing in the wilds , things break . Even top of the line gear like a patriot camper or your over landing rig .but looking back later it will still have been worth it all , and was still a awesome adventure even when you break things . Awesome video you all .cheers and keep safe . And thanks for sharing your awesome videos with us all . From Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A.
Sara sure kept her cool when he told her the flavor of the cow dung enhances the meat. What a champ. She just went with it like he was talking about basil and cilantro.
That was intense! Sorry about the X1. I’m sure you’ll come up with an even tougher axle design. Then you can take it back there and try that same road again 😜 Glad everyone was OK! Props to you for showing this. Most manufacturers would have edited that part out of the video and pretended like nothing had happened.
These things happen when you're overlanding. We need to thank you for being committed to testing with your crew in addition to the feedback you get from your customers. You might design/build your gear so that you personally believe it will survive most ugly situations... but the reality is that operational testing will present you and your customers with things you never thought would happen. Your children will run a company that still sees these kinds of challenges, but we as customers will still benefit from your testing and the feedback of your customers, even then.
Wow , That was gut wrenching , I honestly feel devastated for you Justin , I think in this case should have left Murthy's law back in Australia , So glad that the Family wasn't hurt though , You build those campers bloody tough , as a fitter and turner the force to break that would have been intense you definitely build them tough , my gut and the hairs stood up on my arms watching this your so amazing ,and the fact you showed this and what happens if you hit a cut out in the road it reminded me of the time your little bro took his eyes of the road and broke his front wheel wow even that was intense , anyway looking forward on how you fix this enigma, and if anyone can fix it you can.
Hi Justin, appreciated it very much that you show things happen going south and not just cut it out. Shit can happen any time it’s just a matter of : “how to master a disaster” nobody injured no flip over = all good... the rest is fixing with what you have or can organize. Sure you are a master of it ! And will show us in the next episode. BTW your guys face when prepping the cooker with meat and stones was priceless. Cheers
That face when he says that the cow dung ads flavor to the hot stones that will be inside the pot with the meat! 🤣👌 JK.. glad you all are experiencing Mongolian cooking!
Wow and WOW! ... the first for the lamb, I wish I could have a taste of it! It seemed like it could be really tasty even with a not so empty stomach as yours where (hunger is the best seasoning) ... And WOW! ... scary thing. And I am glad you put it in your video, it shows that you are both honest and concerned about your customers, no smoke grenades to shelter. or hide anything. Good job! Hope you are all well in this time! Stay safe and keep distance! Now I am eager to see the next episode.
Sorry to see the X1 in the ditch Justin but family and friends safe most important. Yeah the trip might be cut short but look around you guys are in Mongolia Dude Amazing, stay strong guys
So impressed with you showing a freak accident failure! and I'm guessing its a part that you don't actually manufacture yourself. Even so....Extreme freak accidents occur!! I had a bad accident in my AEV Ram about a month ago with your PCOR tray on the back and a Flatbed camper on top. I rolled more times then I could count and ended up 300 feet down a canyon! The quality build of your PCOR tray keeping that camper on my truck till the 5th or 7th roll is what saved my life! Waiting for Matt @ exploration Outfitter to order me a new PCOR for my new build. Hurry the f&*K up, and start putting steel in containers for the US would ya!!!!???? Big love to you all!
If the camper failed with the sheet metal, or fasteners, or a critical design flaw which made it fail, I would understand the disappointment. But a sheared stub axle is something beyond the realms of control for a camper. I'm unsure if billet steel stub axles would even solve the issue or add to the problem in a different way? Maybe a modular stub axle assembly with the existing stub axles is the go for a "super remote model camper" keeping the stub the "weakest" point of failure. If it shears like that, then bang in a new assembly and away you go. At least the bearings are still in good nick. 🤣
Reminds me of that Bush Mechanics episode where they tie a large stick under the car to act as a wheel, trouble is there is a lack of sticks out there!
How's the spare wheel held on?Is it like a stub axle set up that could be used as a spare if need be might be food for thought in the next build Good Luck hope you get it going.
Justin, don’t be so hard on yourself at least the family is safe. The axel on the X1 can be replaced or maybe improved. But as you mention that was a massive impact and is very hard to calculate the strength of an axel that will withstand that shock. Safety is the key word and nothing happened to any one of your family. Still the best trailer out there I think..!! Thanks for the Awesome videos that you guys are pushing out at Patriot games.
I recently had a bearing fail and trailer wheel come off at 110km/h starting a grass fire during the recent fire period in NSW in the middle of nowhere so I kind of feel your pain and emotion Justin. Luckily I had mobile reception and was able to call the rural firies and all was sorted within a few hours. Continued on and had to leave the trailer off the side of the road for a week until I could return the remaining 6 hours of the trip to repair it.
Love this series and everything Patriot is doing, but I sure hope they're not welding those spindles anywhere near the outer shear. That would be a recipe for fractures under high stress loads.
Kit Barlow good point, higher strength steels do require caution in welding and temperature control during and after welding. Not to mention machining cross section changes and machining finish. Patriot will learn from this. cheers
That toy hauler probably could run with only 3 wheels without the buggy on it. I would of taken one of the trailing arms off it to fox the x1. And balance the toy hauler to run on 3 wheels.
That sux. Might be something to look into for the future. Same suspension components for all the trailers. Would of come in handy in this situation. I still would of at least tried And if I couldn't get it to work would of then send someone of for spares. Maybe you guys could do a bush mechanic segment or something along those lines. Tools and spares that are a must have for remote travel.
Didn't Justin mention in a previous vid that he backs his Patriot Camper products to the point where if some major breakage like this happened he'd shut the business down & walk away? That's how personal he'd take it?
50 K trailer, well it can happen but Toyota went well tru the wash out. My guess it's nut just strut it's linkage bushing can absorb a hit. They need to look over the again and re-test under control testing.
@@PatriotGames uumm sorry ...At 80kmh, there is NO WAY the Toyota went around, and yet a trailer wheel a max of 3m behind, fell into the washout :D At that speed, they either both did, OR, neither did!!!
That was tough. Sharing the fail also shows integrity at its best.
Love the honesty and integrity of Justin. Hasn’t put me off picking up our 2016 x1 next week.
How you finding it mate?
Takes guts to show that their product isn’t invincible but they do show how much it takes for it to break. They do go hard in testing their trailer. Dam I want one
Edgar Rodriguez lol do you know how much they want $$$ haha 😂
Carl Robinson hes hoping his comment will get him one on the cheap😝
Im sure its a blow to your pride Justin, but you kept it in the show and that shows serious integrity. I hope we get to see whats going to be done to toughen the trailers up even more!

Cooking with cow dung, that was unexpected. What a resourceful people.
We weren't expecting it either, very resourceful with no waste 👌
@@PatriotGames Ironically, a lot of waste, but put to good use!
Sara sure kept her cool when he told her the flavor of the cow dung enhances the meat. What a champ. She just went with it like he was talking about basil and cilantro.
Patriot campers KEEP'N IT REAL!!
Proud moment, Keep your character, Good Job!!🖒🖒🖒
Thanks Adam!
The real adventure has finally come. Your boys will remember this forever.
The whole family will remember this forever!

It just happens mate, not a lot you can do about it, still heartbreaking though!
@@PatriotGames Double check locals haven't changed out original X1 Suspension with china made copy..they are very resourceful.

Sorry to see the X1 in the ditch Justin but family and friends safe most important. Yeah the trip might be cut short but look around you guys are in Mongolia Dude Amazing, stay strong guys
Definitely most important! Thanks Shane 👍
The patriot crew always figures out a way. Hopefully I get to see you learn their way of fishing like the rest of your amazing tour. Great work guys.
Thanks Andrew! 👍
Glad the family is OK. Everything else can be replaced.
That's offroading. Things break. At the end of the day the train must keep moving. I'd say six year run of no breaks is pretty darn good!
Train Keeps Moving 👊 Thanks mate!
Very honest video, nice work!
Nice video, good job Justin!
Glad you enjoyed it
Anything can happen in off road trip in Mongolia. Glad all your family members were okay and it wasn't illness, just an accident.

Great vid again guys.... The lamb looked Awsome too. Shame about that bloody axel...
Thanks Kim! The lamb was different but still good!
Best Cliff hanger yet
Reminds me of that Bush Mechanics episode where they tie a large stick under the car to act as a wheel, trouble is there is a lack of sticks out there!
Tough luck that can’t wait to see more. Glad you guys are safe!
Thanks 🙌
Omg how did that happen, you guys always makes me coming back to these episodes, great work guys👍👍
The real adventure!can’t wait for the next epi to come up 👍
Everyone kept their cool on what certainly one of the biggest WTF moments of their life. They just worked a solution. What a great group.
We have the best crew 🙌
Wut a REAL adventure can't wait next episode
Great vid guys, ahah that was more then an hour, keep up the hard work! Xx
Thank you! Will do!
gear is replaceable, family isn't. glad your all ok
With out any disrespected the cruiser made it over the wash out the trailer didn't. Sorry guys for your misfortune.
The cruiser went around it, the trailer slid into it
A true top class company
how many other brands wouldn't show there break down
99.9%
Thanks mate!
That’s a hard bitter pill to swallow, glad family and crew were ok. Great emotional episode.
Cheers legends!!!
Thanks Todd!!
Yeah buddy! Pumped for every episode🍻
How's the spare wheel held on?Is it like a stub axle set up that could be used as a spare if need be might be food for thought in the next build Good Luck hope you get it going.

Nice episode can't wait for the next one
Thanks!
I still love your trailers 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Thanks Luis!
Who’s working hard to save up for there own Super tourer? ... I AM !!!
i'll have the money myself in almost 1000 years
"It's only overkill, until it isn't."
The feeling of being defeated by your own built gear, must be frustrating! But I know you can get through this!
Thanks Sam!
Support 👍
👍
Cow dung adds favor to the meat....NO DOUBT......BAHAHAHA
The cooking process is actually great but...the cow dung was not needed
If there is no wood sure why not but...not for the flavour 😅🤣
Wow what a cooking experience....
It was certainly interesting 😅
Awesome!
Thanks! 👍
Just did a spindle on my enclosed trailer on asphalt. Feel your pain. At least I had dual axles.
You know he's going to go home and redesign that axle and hub to make it stronger lol
Super glue? :-p (I'm finally watching the last episode that I missed) :-p
🚶Good
In aotearoa tangata whenua call it a hangi,,,in the islands they call it a Umu Che looking good and yum
Congrats on 100k u got it today 16 September 2020
Goodnight John Boy
.
What is the name of the lake in the Gobi?
Awsom vid keep it up
Thanks! Will do! 👊
Bush mechanics, hook the axle to the side bar of a bull bar and pos coms through. It will be slow but never stuck mate
Was it live
No trees around to drag it on.
has any low temperature steel been used?
Cow poo cooked lamb. So yum 😜😜
Doesn't matter how it was cooked, still tasted good!
Aussie, You got wrong! he used for heat up the stones. They are all organic grass fed.
Love this series and everything Patriot is doing, but I sure hope they're not welding those spindles anywhere near the outer shear. That would be a recipe for fractures under high stress loads.
Yeeeeewww
Curious if this accident has changed the design of the trailer axle?
We won’t change the design, just a freak accident
Just a question if the toyhauler had tandem axles could you have used one of the arms of of it ?
Different arms unfortunately, TH runs on XT suspension and X1 is on X-Cruise, good pickup though 👊
Brittle fracture through the entire axle seems more like a heat treat gone wrong. Hard to tell without a close look at the fracture/grain structure
Kit Barlow good point, higher strength steels do require caution in welding and temperature control during and after welding. Not to mention machining cross section changes and machining finish. Patriot will learn from this. cheers
Axle from the toy hauler??
Different design unfortunately
That toy hauler probably could run with only 3 wheels without the buggy on it. I would of taken one of the trailing arms off it to fox the x1. And balance the toy hauler to run on 3 wheels.
Wild Aus off-road or just take both front wheels off
They are different suspension arms and mounts unfortunately 🙁
That sux.
Might be something to look into for the future. Same suspension components for all the trailers.
Would of come in handy in this situation.
I still would of at least tried And if I couldn't get it to work would of then send someone of for spares.
Maybe you guys could do a bush mechanic segment or something along those lines. Tools and spares that are a must have for remote travel.
things break, of you don't break or dent anything its not an adventure. im sure they will get it fixed and move on.
Not much privacy if you need a number 2
Well I guess your next trailer will have a bigger stronger axle
If you really want an adventure; drive across Mongolia in a old Jeep. Its guaranteed to break down multiple times; but that’d be the fun of it
Didn't Justin mention in a previous vid that he backs his Patriot Camper products to the point where if some major breakage like this happened he'd shut the business down & walk away? That's how personal he'd take it?
Yeah he did, but this was accident, not a failure!
Wonder why they didn't use bolt-ons like 97% of all other trailers. Maybe this is why people don't weld their tires on? Lol
2000 X1’s sold wow
👊Yep!
It need 57 spline shaft and chromoly hub mate
not a tree in sight? a log ratchet strapped under the axle and wedged to the trailing arm to create a sled like arm could have got you out of the crap
Coming out of the Gobi Desert there wasn't a tree in sight 👎
@@PatriotGames Bugga
Yew
hmm.. smokey poop
😂😂
hi
Hey! 👋
50 K trailer, well it can happen but Toyota went well tru the wash out. My guess it's nut just strut it's linkage bushing can absorb a hit. They need to look over the again and re-test under control testing.
The Toyota went around the washout and the trailer fell into it, can guarantee if the Toyota hit it, it would have been much much worse!
@@PatriotGames uumm sorry ...At 80kmh, there is NO WAY the Toyota went around, and yet a trailer wheel a max of 3m behind, fell into the washout :D
At that speed, they either both did, OR, neither did!!!
Sorry looks like drivers fault no damage to Toyota let trailer hit ditch.if someone brought this to your shop would you cover cost to fix
