    Great video Mitch! I was just thinking I hadn't seen one from you in a while and apparently I'm slacking, lol. Vehicle repairs are not in my wheelhouse, so I'm very impressed with what you did. Hope it lasts till you can buy the new lift kit. 😁👍

    Hey Mitch, Your perseverance is amazing! I would have given up at the first sign of trouble! Excellent repair. But because both sides of that bracket were either broken or cracked I would say it wasn't engineered correctly. What do you think? Nice job making the video! Cheers!

    • @MJADoingStuff
      @MJADoingStuff  Před rokem +1

      Thanks Mike probably should have given up😂it all worked out. I would have to agree with you. I think the bends weakened the already thin steel plate. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

    Those wheel dolleys are a cool tool. I am surprised that bracket broke, it looked like a thick bit of steel. We find that it can make a problem seem worse when it is being recorded and things don't go well

    Inside storage and keeping out of salt is making the underneath look rust free. You should see mine from driving in salt and parking on grass :(

    • @MJADoingStuff
      @MJADoingStuff  Před rokem

      Morning B Hall😁 our first year it was outside on the grass too. Inside is nice to be able to work on also. When we went to the San Francisco to visit family we ran into a lot of snow up in the mountains. I don’t know if they use sand and salt but we did gain some rust from that trip. Thanks for checking out the video Have a great day. 😁👍🚜💨🍳

    Yikes. I am wondering about those springs. They looked kind of flat. Maybe even overbent / stressed ?? Camera angle? Do they make the camper lean or do they squeak at all when your travelling? What, me worry? HA. 🤠

    • @MJADoingStuff
      @MJADoingStuff  Před rokem +1

      I feel like they are wore out but I was just trying to get clearance for the tow hitch and automatic levelers. I use the camper to tow the tractor to the property and it works way better now. No squeaks but has a lean to the passenger side. I am saving up for a custom set of springs in the future. Thanks for checking out the video. 😁👍🚜💨🍳

    Do you plan on installing the weldtec lift yourself when you get it?
    I'm looking into one also but don't want to pay the 3500 for installation.

    • @MJADoingStuff
      @MJADoingStuff  Před rokem +1

      I guess you didn’t watch the video. 😁 It’s just a 2”inch block of metal in between the leaf springs and axle to raise the static height of the vehicle. Let me know if that helps. Have a great week😁👍🚜💨🍳
