I dropped my RV. Tire change gone wrong…

I knew better, but I did it anyways and it bit me in the ass! They say these motorhome jacks are for stabilizing only, and should never be used to lift the RV in the air. However, many times while camping we've had one end or the other completely off the ground and never an issue. I'm still not sure whether it was the rear jack sinking, or the front one retracting itself that caused the failure, but either way I got extremely lucky that the only damage was bent mounting brackets for the rear jacks.
Luckily I own my own tow trucks and head the ‪@zackliftinternational4841‬ sitting there on the back of the ‪@SeriousTrucks‬ ready to go. So between that and my ‪@harborfreight‬ off road jack, I was able to get it picked up and safely set on some blocks

Casey I worked for Coachman servicing bigfoot systems for over 15years & yes you can leave the system fully extended for long periods of time ( like winter storage )as long as you coat the pistons with lubricant prior to lowering ( 556,WD40,) , what happened in your case & i have seen it many times is the front left gave way lost pressure over time causing the RV to tilt applying more side force to the left rear lean which in turn caused the base to dig in and eventually causing the supports to bend at their weak points ,your system when working properly should be able to support the RV for an indefinite amount of time while extended ,but please remember it is an open system meaning if you have a bad seal or blow a weak line due to dry rot the system will come down retract so while up for service use jack stands , and it always good to have your piston feet on 2x12x12 pressure treated pads to widen the foot print .

I watched you set blocks with grain aligned with rotor/ hub and almost commented that sometimes hub/rotor will split blocks, but I didn't .. then lock splits as you set down on blocks. 😋 I know you know better, and yet you did it again in final set. Always set wooden blocks so edges are at 90 degrees to grain of wood! It's like you said about using levelers as stands, you might get away with it but it might "bite you in the ass." 🙂 Doing this safely takes way less time, way less injury, way cheaper than even 1 failure in 100 tries.

Indeed. Over the years having worked at a tractor dealership, we used woo blocks as big as 16" x 24" to support machinery that required work beneath them. If there were hydraulic cylinder supporting any amount of weight, we surrounded the rods with steel angle iron to prevent the rods from retracting in any way. Then the wood blocks were put into place as the main supports. The huge blocks were always stable & gave extra room underneath to do our work.

@--_DJ_-- 2 ай бұрын

Regarding your rearview camera; I had taken my car to an audio place to install a decent sound system. They ran the amplifier's power lead directly by my engine's distributor cap. The engine RPM caused a whining noise in the speakers until the amplifier's power lead was re-routed to isolate it from the high voltage of the spark plug wires. What I'm saying is, maybe your rearview camera wire is run along an unshielded other wire and is experiencing unwanted interference.

It's wire less

Garman is much like IPM….they were both “the BEST” in office computers, GPS and camera applications. But now Apple and DELL have left IPM in the dust. Garman needs to get their crap together before they totally lose the market!

Casey, thanks for taking the time to video your mistakes and “learning curve.” You sure get yourself into some situations. I thoroughly enjoyed watching Troy create your Channel Sign. Hope you had a GREAT time at the rodeo!

With my rv jacks i went to the railroad tracks. And searched for the flat plates they use to hold the rails onto the beams. They work wonders and u can find there discarded every around them

This reminds me of me doing things. I too have done things I know I shouldn'thave. Like in your case YOU knew the leveling jacks don't work correctly, yet you trysted them to jack up the RV and hold it there. My first thought was int he previous video where you stated you were taking the wheels off to get new tires, nade me think was it really too hard to drive it over and replace the tires? So since you did what you did you now have to spend mre time getting back off the ground, and, fixing your levelrs. Just like me this is one of those jjobs you do twice......the first time and the last time. But it does make a good video. I love watching your predicaments so I don't recreate them myself.

Hope theres no major damage to the rear frame , how ironic tho that casey had to do a recovery on his own vehicle 🤦 - good luck on getting everything fixed 👍🇺🇸

Wow, Casey my friend, Im a think the collapsed jack is what caused the collapse. I drove many a motor home throughout my life, never REALLY owned one, but enjoyed the life style.........good luck on your OWN recovery!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the camera info, I bought a insta 360 x3 because of you and a good chance I'd try one of these.

We often know what Should happen, but we need to be mindful of what Could happen. Not to say we should be paralysed by the What-If, but calculate the risks for a given action.

Jackstands you should have used Jackstands to remove your tires. Don't you think? Might have made your job just a little better?

I have a 1 ton truck and I too have dirt. I used 2 ton jack stands on both sides of my rear axle and the stands sunk into the dirt. 2nd attempt I used 3/4 inch plywood cut 12 inches square to put under the stands. It sunk again. 3rd time is a charm....4-18 inch long 4 x 6 blocks, 2 on each side. More surface area being 18 inches long and no more sinking. I now put a tarp down before working under the shade tree so if I drop any parts I can find them. Looking for rusty nuts n bolts are impossible to find w/o a magnet on soil that looks the same.
