My brother in law called yesterday stranded on I95 due to his "Holiday Rambler" suddenly, without any warning, breaking it's axle ! Not sure of exact length of RV but it's about size of a typical school bus.
To top it all off, he was hauling his racecar to Savannah, GA for a race this weekend and had to borrow my truck to tow the race trailer while the RV got towed off to Walterboro, SC for the "we've got ya where we want ya now sucker" mechanics to do their deeds.
I couldn't get my head under to look, but the wheels were cocked at an angle sure nuf and he said he heard gawdawful noise when it happened.
Anyhoo, just wondering what the hell would cause an axle to break at only 60,000 miles and any suggestions on the repair aspects ?
