- Everything was fine until it wasn't!! We broke a leaf spring on our trailer's axle that left us unable to move until we figured out a way to get back to civilization. What do you do if your own camp trailer, motorhome or other RV breaks down with no help available? What are your options?

Getting out on the road is what Linda and I love to do with our converted cargo trailer camper. We're part time nomads and the nomadic lifestyle suits us to a Tee. Whether your RV is a camper van, camp trailer, travel trailer, motorhome or just a car and a tent, there's going to be something interesting for you in the videos we produce. Back roads and overlanding are part of what we do while exploring the western states for beautiful, peaceful and sometimes remote places to camp on BLM and National Forest land (public land). Taking care of ourselves as much as possible and doing our own repairs is a must because we travel on a fixed income and a limited budget. If your into being off-grid and boondocking whenever possible then you'll appreciate the discussions on batteries, solar panels and solar chargers or power stations. Come on along, we're happy to have your company!

MacGyver would be proud!
MacGayver used duct tape didnt he !?
I remember back in the min 90s my wife an i were comming back to the trailer from her parents house. We were full time rvers and at home in our camp site at night there was a couple under their trailer working and speaking french a good dize 5th wheel. I went into our trailer, changed close and went over i figured thay did not speek english sp just crawed undre to look the thing over they both looked at me and i gave them the ok sign. Its amasing how we worked to gether i moshened for her to get out from here. They had the same problem just off i65 north of nashvolle tn. He had i worked till 3 in the morning he had picked up the spring in town earlyer. We finished he hughed me and tryed to pay my. The next morning they came over i was outside with a coffie. They gave me a bottle of conyak. Spelling not good i know. I was glad to help they were probly in their late 60s or seventys.
You sir , are a prince among men !!!!! I know that sounds corny as hell but seriously a-lot of people talk about helping out of goodness of their hearts but very few do it without a camera or something to stroke their ego but . The reality of our world is that we ALL need help at some point in our lives and it will be paid forward im sure !!!!! Great story thank you for sharing and for being that type of person glory to the lord snd thanks to you i always say !
Thanks Howard GOOD ON YOU !
THE HUMAN GUY wants to also know the USA will get through all the problems coming especially with GREAT folks like you two God Bless !!
I love hearing stories like that. My neighbors are like that I call people like you Salt of the earth 🌍 Nice going.
Impressive. There’s a group called Nevada 4x4 rescue that its members help people like yourselves in this situation. All free and run by good Samaritan’s.
That sounds like a valuable group to know.
Yeah, good to know. Thanks for the heads up
Thats great. I drove The Loneliest Road last November.... so beautiful. LOVE LOVE LOVE Nevada.
For me this was the best of your video blogs. You cataloged and filmed it beautifully. I'm 83 and have found for myself that these unforeseen disasters determine the character of people. You two have lots of character, and I'm happy to be on the same planet with you.
David Iam a army vet and can not go out any more but they make it like Iam with them both.
Well there's a lot to be said for getting old. Most of the young people today wouldn't know what to do or how to do it. Good job, I know you feel like, well I still got this. And the Lord is with you two so that's makes up the difference. Happy Trails.
exactly
I would’ve done the same thing, I carry all kinds of miscellaneous gear, wire,duct tape, cord, elec wire, and such, good to see you made it to shop, carry on and travel safe.👍🏽
“The tools are in there.” It usually means you have to pull EVERYTHING out to get to them. BTW....Of course you made it. The God who can part the Red Sea for people to walk through on DRY land can certainly hold your axle together. Glad your primary plan worked out and you made it into town for repairs.
A resourceful man and woman, with Gods help, are what made this country great. A big AMEN to your perseverance!
Goes to affirm God helps those who help themselves. He didn't do a thing but watch 'cause He gave you those skills. Nice jury rig. 😉
iv prayed and prayed and prayed and iv never had god come and get his hands dirty helping me
God has His own way of helping us and His own time schedule. One thing for sure, it will always be better than what you could come up with by yourself. Sometimes we have to go through hardship to learn the lesson He wants to teach us or to be guided down the path He's set out for us to follow.
@@fukkyoutube but maybe He gave you the strength and ingenuity. He DID give you a way into heaven, which you CAN'T do for yourself.
NIce work you two. Hats off to your positive attitude, ingenuity and prayerful thankfulness.
Good job at the jury rigging. That reminded me having two flats within a mile of each other about 70 miles south of Gallop NM on a Friday, before a three day weekend. The tire place in Gallop was closed until Tuesday and had to order the tires, which took another day. We were there for days on an Indian reservation in the desert, but we had the only trees we could see anywhere for shade and a windmill fed water tank. The good out weighed the bad being there, we were surrounded by hundreds of sheep one morning and the hikes we took everyday were beautiful. I'm glad it went smooth for you two, ya gotta love it.
Some times it's those memories that are the most special, don't you think?
@@lostinspace280 Ha, indeed, nobody knew we were there. It was down near El Morro.
@@gonagain Indeed! I don't believe you will forget your special time either!
The rocks are spectacular around the Gallup, NM area.
Good story, loved it, merci.
Amazing skills while taking it all in stride!
Its a comfort to know that you are not alone in this world, and that you have the Lord to rely on! ....glad to see you made it!
Love your adventures and the “we can do it together” attitude.
Good thought Amy, that's why best to leave mother at home.
Most of those towing plans only work if you're on a numbered route. It may not have helped you here. Congratulations on 20k subs. That piece of juniper needs to be saved. It has a story to tell.
We saved it. Might use it for knife handles or something.
@@gonagain Write a poem "Little Short Log". Story of how God gave it to you for your use. Frame poem and log. Hang on wall. Proof of miracles.
@@jimb5113 I don't know if the words will come to me, but I did save that log.
Been there, done that. Even used two pieces of wood crossed to hold drive shaft up after a carrier bearing failure. Talk about a shakey ride... Love the video guys!
Wow, that worked ? Had a carrier fail last year, bang bang banged home at 15mph, it was horrible.
Had a similar problem years ago offroad...used a come along to move trailer off trail...took spring off...took into nearest town for a weld...nobody wanted to do it... I did finally find someone to weld spring ...held for many miles till I got home and ordered 2 new sets.
Bailing wire in the toolbox coming soon lol
Yep... and probably will never need it again. LOL That's how it works for me.
When I was a young fella I used to always carry a couple of wire coat hangers in the trunk....great for fixing a multitude of problems...especially exhaust system failures. Cheers from Aussie land.
I never see wire coat hangers anymore. They were useful for a lot of things.
"Mechanic's wire" or "Tie wire" is my go-to; just use as many strands as is needed.
Glad you made it safe. Don't know what I would have done in that situation. Makes me think. Thank you for your videos and I'm glad your safe!
Cute when Linda said, "that's not going to happen", and the camera went back and forth left to right.😄
Glad to see you made it out alright! Definitely have to be resourceful as you were when fixing busted parts in the backcountry. 👍
Thx for the vid, with the wear an tear you put on that rig going camping, it mite have been to your benefit to replace both of them, an buy either some hose clamps and or spring keepers as backups, because you do go off-road so to speak more than most would, just my .02
That's a valuable two cents. I intend to replace the other side soon William.
Prayer always works. I'm glad you did that. Your hearts are genuine and he helped you. Nice
The LORD is with You, GOD BLESS. IN JESUS NAME.
My thoughts exactly!
You had me at “in Jesus name, amen!” Blessings
Well done guys. Yep, happened to me plenty of times when cutting wood in my earlier days. Always carried some baling twine along with my cutting gear. Did some pretty weird repairs, but things always worked out, 😂😂.
You need a bigger trailer to carry your 10kva generator, 200A welder, some 7018 welding rods and oven to dry your rods, yeah, a bigger trailer, 🤣🤣🤣.
Top repair ol' mate, well done!!
👏👏 👋👋👋
I gave up on trying to carry spares. Too many to even think of. Thanks Pilot and I hope you're staying cool.
110 forecast for Tuesday 🥵🥵
Toasty.
I love to see a couple (who obviously love each other) work so hand-in-glove together. Beautiful!
*SEND SNOW!! QUICK* 😂😂😂
I don't care if it rains or freezes
Long as I've got my plastic Jesus
Ridin' on the dashboard of my car!🙏🏻
Comes in colors pink and pleasant,
glows in the dark cause it's iridescent,
take it with you when you travel far
Grandpa use to tell all us kids "Stories are always better if you live to tell them yourself". Haha. Glad you made it & looks like you found a good place to repair it. Safe travels !!
Amazing ingenuity. This video should be required viewing to young folks who only know how to work apps on their phone. You remind me so much of my Dad.
Imagine finding a repair facility which uniquely fixes springs, how lucky can you get ! Regards AJ
Broken springs must happen a lot near there to keep the shop going. Glad you’re ok
The shop was also busy doing lifts and making custom flatbeds. Nice folks.
We don’t fix them, we replace them.
Are you MacGyvers Grandpa? That was some great emergency repair work! The Good Lord was with you every mile.
Taught him everything he knows! Nah, but I try. Thanks Jay.
From all my previous experiences with leaf springs typically if you change one side you should change the other depending upon the age of the unit and the amount of use you may experience a difference in ride from one side to the other you did a great job that was a Cool fix to get you where you needed to be glad you are all safe
We will definitely be changing the other side. As soon as the snow melts! Thanks Mark.
Good job on the temp repair! Wisest part was the prayer in Jesus' name. Good witness!
Vinny says you need McGyver . He can take 3 Bobby pins , a lollypop , a nail file and 7 anti-diareal pills and get y'all outa there !
Great gerryrigging & great recovery ! ....very happy for you two.
Regards from an old long time camper & RVer.
Thanks George!
Take the spring off and turn it around to hold the axle from moving backwards.
Next time. I'm changing out the opposite side leaf stack and I'm also installing polyurethane pads/bumpers to dampen the shock a bit. Hopefully to avoid a "next time". Thanks Tony.
@@gonagain Glad all worked out for you to get in and get it repaired. Your strap did a good job of keeping forward. Yes on getting a spare spring just in case.
Good idea Tony. They're cheap and don't take up much room.
Something you could do yourself is to replace both springs with much longer ones. With a longer, wider and thicker spring it will ride nicer and have more travel. If you do this mod you could add bump stops and shocks if you need them. If you look at places like Jags and Summit racing they will sell spring pockets for the front and shackles made for race cars just for relocating the springs for wider tires. Even if the the springs are thicker and wider if they are 15" longer they wont be as stiff as yours now. It's just an idea.
Hi Larry. That's an idea I haven't seen or heard of before. I've even asked the spring shops if there's some way of putting shocks in and they said no. Thanks for that!
Winder towing is who to call. TH-cam channel is Matt’s Offroad Recovery. He covers that whole area.
Thanks for stopping by! We also watch your channel.
@@gonagain Thanks. BTW, my brother has a trailer similar to yours that he has converted. You guys are two of a kind. Seriously impressed with your MacGyver hack.
PRAISE GOD! YOU MADE IT. I THOUGHT WITH ALL THE WIRE & ROPE AND PIECE.OF WOOD YOU WOULD MAKE IT JUST FINE IF YOU WENT SLOW, but I knew when you prayed in Jesus name you were going to be just blessed ° !!
And you were just fine the prayer 🙏 did it Jesus held that spring and His angels were there looking over you both!! I enjoyed watching thanks for sharing 👍! Iam happy you & wife are safe!!
Necessity is the author of invention as they say. I always carry four 4" band clamps and bailing wire or as some call it "farmers weld". We do have AAA insurance and will check into the trailer coverage writer. Well done Rick and Linda your a great team. God Bless!
We better see you guys out there soon!
@@gonagain I've been shoveling and using the snow blower here at the home base. Foot of heavy wet stuff with more on the way. Sunshine and warm temps, oh my. :)
@@explorer867 I'm gettin outta here asap.
My palms got sweaty watching you pull out of there. Good work! Glad you made it safely 🙏🏼
Red Green would be proud of you. One you tuber I watch said he always carries 1 set of springs for his camper just in case, I think I going to buy one set for cheap insurance. Safe travels👍👍
Great job Rick. I admire the patience you display. I am envious.
Makes me think of the early settlers coming across the country in wagons that were most likely les reliable with wooden wheels . Glad it work out one more adventure....🤠 aloha
If you have the tools with you, you could remove the spring and flip it end for end. Still wouldn't have a spring, but would keep the axle where it belongs.
Yeah, you're right and I'll remember that if and when it happens again. Thanks.
Amen that prayer to our Father in the name of Jesus along with your skills really did the trick. Halleluyah
I used 2 vicegrips to clamp down the broken leaf springs then duct taped the vice grips in place (just so they would not vibrate off) Drove back 350 miles to St. Louis from Bullshoals lake. Not a single problem. Both vice grips stayed in place. This was a dual axle Mark Twain boat and trailer fully loaded with camping equipment. The suspension was fine.
I would have both of them replaced.
Wow, you guys are both brave and resourceful! I would have been scared to death and would never have known how to rig it up to get out of the situation. This is a great video! Thank you for sharing it so others will be able to borrow your knowledge if they ever find themselves in a similar situation.
Outstanding off road engineering using what was available to you in the area. I often think of the people in covered wagons going west with all the axels and wooden wheels breaking .Great job !
You guys continue to be my heroes
Good Job !!All that without any swear words to boot.... Truly American know-how and pioneer spirit wins the day !!
Great DIY . I will start having wire in my rig. Duct tape just not enough . lol
Turn the spring around and prop the axle up with a stump.
Easy.
Gee, I Don't Know How I Missed This Episode. Ouch. The More I think about it, the 'Jerry-Rigging' you did with the wood, old rusty wire and some rope was Very Clever. Great Job. I'm Not certain if you have a 'Higher Clearence' on your Rig??? But that would not have made Any Difference with a 'Direct-Hit'. I Don't know how they are going to do it, but at the Dealer's Shop they will 'Reverse the Axel' (on my trailer)Somehow to Allow Extra-Room to Add Larger-Wheels making for Higher Clearance. (We Shall See) But Then Again, a Direct Hit is going to RIP Things Up. I'm Glad it wasn't Worse. (Now I'm starting to think: 'Skid-Plate') Ya, a lightweight piece of steel can be Fashioned to Cover where the Wheels attach to the Axle. Maybe That is Doable??? Well in Any Case Rick & Linda, Ya Made It Safe. I Especially liked the Moment of Prayer. Cool. Extra Help for Us 21st. Century 'Pioneer-Gypsy-Explorers' is Always Welcome. 🙏 Funny, you Drove Through a Strange and Spooky place Near Beryl Jtc., Through Escalante Valley, Rt. 56. I'll tell you More about that area later. Well Again, You All are Safe. That's the Most Important Thing.👌 Cheers 🤗 Erik
The labor charge probably would have been half as much if he didn’t have to get that wire off 😉. LOL !
Great job man! This was a great example of what experience and overall knowledge can achieve.
The wisdom of Solomon! So very well done and never better with the Lord as your copilot. The adventure begins when the plans go awry, thanks for sharing!!
That was an excellent solution. Congratulations!!!
AAA will not go off blacktop to tow. Good Sam road side assistance will.
They will not go off road towing, they do tow from gravel roads.
You two are amazing. Always teaching others through your adventures ❤️
And, you knew Who to call on. He was holding you both fast in His hands. So thankful you made it!
Right on..I loved this video. As I learned in the Marine Corps to improvise, adapt and overcome. You did exactly that......well done to the both of you!
Thanks for watching Chuck!
better save that chunk of wood, and pick up a roll of bailing wire incase (God forbid) something happens to the other side. we have ALWAYS packed bailing wire, and duct tape along with the normal hand tools in our little tool box, and we DO-NOT leave home w/o it...that chunk of cable you found is just not malleable enough , and too hard to work with, i realize when you're out in the boonies, beggars can't be choosers, but a more thorough ground search may have turned up some plain old wire....i know.....the old arm chair quarterback....SORRY!!!! no you both did an awesome job of doing what you had to do to get R done. great vid.
Yes, looking back i could have annealed that wire on the stove burner to make it more malleable.
Wonderful couple with positive mindset, I always admire never give up attitude to get by tough times. Solid like a rock. 👍🤲🙏
That's the best thing I've watched in i don't know how long !!!!!
But when you 2 prayed I knew it was going to be okay ☺️
I know it's after the fact... but my advice would be a roll of bailing wire, good duct tape and let a little air out of the tires when you're on dirt roads whether the axles good or broken, it helps absorb some of the shock. Great fix/ ingenuity !!! It's what our forefathers would have done 😂😊🧐
Yes, and you know, we were really going slow up that hill, maybe a walking speed, but the bounce over that stump was all it took.
I'm impressed, well done! And you sure do have a great attitude about the whole situation.
Must be plenty of trailer spring repair business in that neck of the woods.
Nice to see someone jump into action instead of sitting on the curb and crying about it. In those circumstances I get really irritated, I've been a professional mechanic for 42 years and have $250K in tools...... at the shop. I generally don't even carry a screwdriver or a pair of pliers. I'm in the process of setting up a camper shell on my truck with all my camping gear, I'm going to build a lockable box inside to be able to lock my 2 road service boxes up so I don't find myself completely tool-less.
Everyone will tell you to carry a spare this and a spare that, but it's impossible to do, so a proper tool kit and other precautions, such as food and water, is all you can hope for.
So impressed with your improvisational skills! Also, you really do a great job with these videos. I'd say you are a natural at it! I've watched two videos and I already care about you two! Hope you keep enjoying your journeys.
Thank you, Rob!
I admire your ingenuity! I would have tried the same thing.
The problem is the front of the spring broke. Jack the trailer up to relive the pressure. Undo the total spring and reverse it. This will make it where the spring will drag the axel instead of trying to push it. Then do the wood under the axel bit to keep the tires from rubbing. Hopefully the strap pulling will work.
Next time Rowdy! Because I know this isn't the last time.
Always carry a chain or chains, they can save your life. It's best to carry a extra leaf spring u bolts and nuts and bolts when pulling a trailer they aren't that expensive. I've learned that everything you have always carry a extra one especially when traveling.
For sure I'm going to replace the opposite side soon. Thanks Kerry.
I would have unbolted the leafspring and turned it around. That way it would have been attached at the front.
Leaf springs are cheap cheap cheap. And they break often. Carry a spare with you in the future. 👍🏻
Especially when in remote areas.
You both are excellent partners. You both handled that like a champ. Extra points for admiring the beauty of the wood. I hope to meet you both on the road one day. It would be cool if a camping app sent out an alert it other nomads in the area and it would be up to them if they wanted to respond
That might be a popular app. If you should see us around please come and introduce yourself.
in my experience, AAA won’t authorize a tow truck driver to go more than 1/2 mile off pavement. i have the premium plan.
They don't go off road but they towed me from a gravel road.
It varies a bit. If it's a marked government-owned road they will usually pull you (if their truck won't get hurt) but they are not obligated to drive even an inch off the pavement. I find that tossing the driver some cash gets you all kinds of special services they're not supposed to be providing, and with two closed mouths we let AAA cover the towing anyway.
had left rear spring break twice on me two years ago on a 3 month trip out west. ended up having a place in libby montana beef up the entire spring setup. no problems since but it cost me 500.00. This was on my homemade squaredrop trailer.
The very Essence of the word DIY, plus experience and an 'I can fix that' mindset!
The covered wagons were made of wood and had no suspension also. You got this.
That's right, what a ride that must have been. That's probably why they preferred to walk most of the time.
We just had the same issue. Thank you for sharing! Blessings 🤗
Thank you for watching!
Love the chunk of wood for a block. Have done similar, as i used to run a business with lots of trailers that farmers pulled in fields with washouts and through ditches to get there. Necessity: Mother of invention.
Note to self, piece's of wood, ratchet straps, medium wire
Awesome stuff! This reminds me of the time we had a broken radiator cap and lost almost all of our fluid out deep in the woods. We fixed it ourselves and made a memory out of it. It occasionally concerns me that there are so many more people traveling in the backcountry on BLM and NFS land and many of them wouldn't have the slightest clue how to address a problem like this. You know your stuff and have great improvising skills. Subscribed.
Thank you very much for subscribing!
Nail biter...I love happy endings
I'm a diy guy. I have to say that's a damn good fix.
Thanks Bill. Us guys are becoming rare these days.
Great job, I knew you'd make it! lol.
Glad you guys made it through this ok - part of the struggle,,, I always replace springs in pairs I was rooting for you to lol......
Yaa and pick up some mechanics wire and duct tape - should have wrapped that spring stack with duct tape also it's a big deal in derby cars to wrap them.
I'll bee replacing the other side here soon. We had Gorilla tape and it did come up in conversation! Looking back, one thing I should have done would have been to anneal that stiff wire. I could have done it on the propane stove even.
Well, if you're gonna' break down you've got some good company!
What a testimonial for self-rescue. I’m also adding multiple sizes of U bolts to my rig. Thank You for sharing!
Prayers answered!!!
Did you replace both sides??
Safe travels!
Love to hear your witness and prayer.
One hell of a repair job I know who I'm calling if I break down
God was definitely watching over you both! You remind me so much of my dad... He was also a pilot and could fix anything like you obviously can. Wonderful video!
Great video...I learned a few things...including the meaning of ''anneal'',
I would bet the farm you make it. Oh that's why my grandpa lost the farm.....Gambling
Great temporary fix! I was on the edge of my seat! Loved this video.
I'm so impressed how well you and your wife work together. I wish I could say the same😬
Happy Thanksgiving from Alabama God bless
I have AAA/RV plus. This past summer I had an issue with my pop up. I called AAA, and yes they would come and flatbed my trailer home. While talking to them, my Son resulved the problem. Was good to know I had that choice if needed.
From an off road area?
@@badgerpa9 no. State park
@@susanchapman4231 They are off road and AAA do not tow off road.
Thought everyone carried an extra leaf spring...? You probably have one under the back seat for just such breakdowns. Did you check...?
Well.....it looks like the Lord answered your prayers....If you are gonna pray and your prayer is answered...just a reminder to not forget togive the Lord the credit!
Nice job, it's always rewarding to keep your head, and work your way through a hiccup....You've certainly proved to be smarter than your average leaf spring or bear for that matter.....And a nice slow ride through some beautiful country could almost be worth the whole experience, almost.....Good job.....
