Hub/Wheel Came Off… Need Welder, Mechanic, Trailer Repair Help ASAP!
… Here’s what we’re thinking. Need to remove the 3500lb axels and upgrade to 5000lb each. Will need a 2″ lift and because of new axels, will have to change out wheels and replace the tires that were destroyed. Need help running around to the proper trailer/tire shops to pick up parts, and the skills to take care of this to remove and weld everything back into place. Our current location is between the Olive Garden and Denny’s. Here is the pin drop. Come on by if you’re able to help. https://goo.gl/maps/bR5VK9wwBPiYcDBk7
Called Peterbuilt of Rochester, Sean the service manager recommends Darren from Kullot, he says he should have everything needed to make the repair. We’ve called over and spoke with Jennifer at Kullot and Darren is out at the moment and hoping to call us later. Not sure what his schedule is and if he’ll be able to complete the repair. All hands on deck.. ðŸ™ðŸ»

These lightweight trailers should not be used for a rolling workshop, the more old-school your gear better for the long runs. Thanks for the nice locations across US, kind regard from Uk.
I enjoy watching adventures with purpose
And I've been watching for months but as I was watching it told me I had become a member and it goes from 499 up I am a senior citizen on social security and I couldn't even afford for 499 so with that being said I wish you all the best and you All are truly amazing God bless
Love seeing people come together to help others in need â¤ï¸ there's still hope for mankind!
At first glance this was a result of a failed wheel bearing. It looks like the bearings are dry. More than likely your grease seals are deteriorated and the grease leaked out. That is simply poor preventive maintenance. With the amount of miles that you travel, you should check for leaks, and pop that grease cap off and check the grease on a regular basis.
Doug, I hope this doesn't come off the wrong way. Do you know your paternal father? I'm only asking because all I can think about when I see you is how much you look, sound, walk, talk & act like my brothers. Its uncanny. My dad has a dozen kids, likely more he doesn't know about. Reply if this sounds interesting.
Edit to add: that has GOT to be an upstate NY accent. Just like my dad and brothers. Lol
EDIT to add again, my brothers sound exactly like you because they're from NY but spent a lot of time in the south, so they have a softer northern accent. More of a neutral NY. Lol
I absolutely love awp and the whole app community. You all give me hope. Thank you and God bless. I hope it's fixed soon.
Yay Minnesota! We are Minnesota Nice!
Any sign of grease ?
What an amazing blessing!!!! To have such a fast response and outpouring brought tears to my eyes.
Just came across this video from two weeks ago. I'm glad that everyone made it through safely and no one was hurt or injured. I was in that area right about the time this took place. It was hot outside and the roads in the area were just starting to buckle some making it rougher traveling on the interstate. It takes a heavy toll all vehicles traveling through there, it's just another of those weird phenomena that comes with living in Minnesota. Hats off to Dom for jumping in to help AWP to continue their mission. God bless AWP for the good you do for others and the healing you bring to this country durning some of the hardest of times.
Proof that “Minnesota Nice†does exist up here ðŸ‘ðŸ¼
Trailer wheels need maintenance.Grease those fvckers once and a while and this won’t happen.
I would be so afraid to be doing all that don't know why but I'm glad you guys have taken up the job you're doing a fine thing for all these people out there missing loved ones etc thank you so much and I very enjoy your videos
Unfortunately I can't help with the breakdown, but I can help if you have cylinders due for Hydro. With what you do for these families, if you're in western Nebraska I'd be proud to help with your Hydro Testing. Rin N337. Only Nebraska based mobile Hydro tester.
I know exactly where you were at.
I hope you get your trailer back on the road and save everybody that is passed in life God bless y'all that everything that you do and thank you for putting good videos up I love your videos
I live there wish I would have known u guys are the best
Bless the angel s
In the spirit of Mr. Rogers. When you need help look for helpers or find helpers I'm not sure how it was but anyway right now we need helpers for Doug and his team.
Darn, why am I seeing this two weeks after the fact ? I know a car guy in Rochester but certainly glad good guys turned up to help !!!
You guys are awesome !!!
I must say, I don't trust a single cent of my money to any person on this planet. However, after listening to some of your videos I'm going to balance my current budget and donate a bit of money to you guys. to me you seem the genuine type who actually would spend the money on what you say it would be spent on. You walk the walk, which is very awesome! Please keep finding the missing people too, it's important that people come home when they go missing. If it wasn't for you guys coming onto YouTube, less people would be found.
Was their two weeks ago been doing jobs like this all over the country find me @a&d road solutions
I grew up there, but was out of state when this happened.
If you’re ever in The Southwest Michigan/Northwest Indiana area I’d be honored to help feed you guys. 76 year old grandma.
Wow this was really inspiring to watch through. I love how a good community can come together. Really refreshing watching you guys especially after everything I’ve dealt with in my profession lately. Much respect to you guys and the whole community
This is so heartwarming.
It feels so weird to know exactly where you are in my home town.
Omg I totes missed this! I live 30 min from Rochester! Only found out about this channel last week. I would've come help for sure

This video definitely made me 😢. This is what America 🇺🇸 needs more of.
I saw this trailer and immediately though to myself, those axles way too small for that trailer.
