Veteran broke down in Pine Bluff WY

[lots2seeinmyrv]

I am trying to reach out to see if anybody is in Pine Bluff WY?

A fellow Veteran on FB is broke down with brakes locked up and 2 blown tires.

Needs tools or flatbed.

Has 30' RV.

That's all I know for now.

She is safe and found a place to stay last night.

It is a 5th Wheel RV that needs new studs - 8 Lug.

She has help.

Thanks to all who followed.

That's a good thing

Looks like wheel lugs were not torque'd correctly. That caused the lugs to break off and the wheels fall off. Lugs should be fairly easy to find but I would inspect the hubs real well to make sure they weren't damaged.

Looks like old school lug bolts instead of studs on those axles. Somehow she lost all 16 lug bolts plus the two wheels on that side and dragged it to a stop on the shoulder....would love to now the rest of this story!

It was a female, on my Veterans FB group, alone, that was my concern and worry with it cold and getting dark.

Someone did pull over and help her as I post this last night, so she was busy with them and I had not heard back from her.

They said they could not find studs on the hub?

They did rig up one axle and got it off the Interstate.

She has not posted back on FB as of this morning, so I hope she is ok, and found shelter.

Thank you.

I hope it is just the brake lanyard and 2 new tires. Also too far away to help, wish I could. The weather is a real factor this time of year there.

Good suggestion. Advance planning is a necessity.

[Lwiddis]

Not even close. Sorry. I wish him well.

Ok, I instructed her to join RV.NET and post a reply here to give you her information directly.

Thank you everyone!
