I'm so sorry are you alright? You only get one shot at life. You gotta live it.
We're Chris and Morgan a British/ American couple on a mission to show our kids Jonah
and Jude that the best things in life happen outside of our comfort zones.
We're renovating our fifth wheel Bilbo to become our home on wheels as we hit
the road full-time on a quest to explore 50 states in 50 weeks where are we now?
Greetings from my parents driveway. Last week we had our
first RV fail which is why we're still here.
Oh god this is not how it's supposed to look. So this is what bent right here on both sides
no this one's like completely messed up like it's supposed to be like this
I really hope this doesn't slow us down. We are itching to get on the road we have been here for
far too long can't keep saying greetings my parents house anymore not not any more so we
decided we didn't want to even worry about the wait time to take it into a shop and after doing
some youtube searching and relying on some of our super awesome friends like our friend Jeremy
we decided that we could tackle it ourselves yeah so actually he came out took a look a while in
front of his camera took a look and structurally it was still really good it was sound the world
was good so we brought some new stronger jacks that was 7 500 pounds not the 5000 that came
with it 3500 but even those are meant just to stabilize the rv they're not meant to hold it
in any other way but to stabilize yourself from rocking so they're designed to break away
and i and from now on we're gonna know to raise those jacks before we take off that's
the last night we learned and it really wasn't that hard right that's a cool no
changing the jacks was not hard at all just drilling some new holes
and just making sure they bolted on and getting those weld bent back down so they were flat
she's helping right
this time we got heavy duty jacks hold that one got it hold it we gotta use those to put those
on okay wow we're gonna do the front one first whichever one you want to line up first okay
got it of course the holes don't want to line up with the old holes so we've got to draw new holes
really go get back nelly get back
tell me if that looks straight this one
it looks straight to me yeah okay then i'm gonna go for this one right here all right
i can't believe you're not wearing safety goggles
i'm so sorry you're right
these new jacks came with a little drill bit so now rather than cranking and cranking and
cranking these jacks up and down getting an arm workout you literally just turn
the drill on in five seconds you're up while you're down and it's just amazing i left that
right so maybe it was a blessing this guy's afraid this anymore the new jacks come with
this little nifty piece throw it in the drill and you haven't got a crank of your hand all day
good job we still have some housekeeping items that we have to take care of before we can hit
