I'm not going to lie, I would have used the ole. "I'm sorry, but you can't be in the shop for insurance purposes. Nice guy, but that would have driven me nuts.
@89Built I kinda appreciate the customer bring there. That way they see the crap i had to deal with and what I've done to impove or fix it. I like showing off. If they don't like the work I'm doing, they can always take it some place else!
I have one of those, also. I didn’t like the design either. I doubled the frame rails, replaced the angle iron crossmembers with 2” square tube, and put a real fifth wheel hitch on it. I found a handful of cracks all over it. Nice job on the repair.
He has the added weight on the front of that hitch. The hitch wasn't designed for that. Plus, he's got those toolboxs hanging off the back bumper. It puts more undue stress on the frame that wasn't designed for that setup. You did a good job fixing it.
Great of Papa Dar to ask you all if you could do it. Whatever else you were planning that day, was held up only a short time. Great job, and one happy customer!
You guys nailed it!! You know that engine is screaming pulling that thing up and down those Utah mountains. Having a customer stand there is no fun, but he built it so I understand.
It was a good job getting this guy back on his vacation. It sucks to be that far from home and have problems like that and I am sure he was stressed out. Good job guys.
There's nothing better than a small community where everyone knows everyone else and who to contact when you need some help. Good job helping get StePHen back on the road.😂
I worked in my daddy's shop since I was 5 holding the light and fetching tools. One thing that I really appreciate is a tidy, uncluttered shop. When I got my own shop, I decided that the last step in every project was clean and put away the tools. Sean's dad's shop is my kind of shop.
Having worked in a small shop for a few years, I remember that our favorite customers were the ones who dropped the rig off, said fix it, call me when you’re done, then left. 😂 I try to be that guy. Great video, thanks for sharing.
hehe, Papa Dar is like omnipresent 🙂 Cool project, and a good job it seems, and certainly good that it got fixed before an accident happened. It ain't easy fixing stuff with the customers around, that are sometimes second guessing everything you do... but this gentleman seemed to actually know a thing or two as well.
Nice job, Gents! The customer seemed knowledgeable and was wise to kinda stay out of the way. I’m sure he was a happy camper when he left! (No pun intended)
Good to see Papa Dar and he knows who to bring welding jobs to when their needed. Shane and Sean working their magic fabricating, welding supports in the rv trailer so the gent can get home safely towing his trailer. Good video and content!
11.26.24 There is so much good stuff here. A small community pooling resources and local knowledge to help a stranger; and a repair that made it better with great workmanship. This all about people people doing their best. If I were a civics teacher, this video would be part of my curriculum.
Been a long time since we've see Pappy Dar! LOL! He is looking pretty good.... Nice fix and engineering on that hitch. Better than "store bought"! Thanks for sharing.
Good job guys by that man standing right by you watching you and your Dad fix his baby that he fixed up he knows where to go for quality work if he comes through town again 🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍🤘🤘
You two guys have great personalities. If I was in dire need with something that needed fixin, as soon as I started talkin with ya I would feel at ease. Your honesty and quality of work speaks for itself. Thanks for the videos. You two are naturals and a joy to watch. Much blessings. John here, photographing the beauty of the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee, y'all.
Working with the customer there is sometimes tricky, but from what i could see he did not seem too bad. When I am paying someone to work for me, I typically just ID the issue, what I was thinking for a fix and any boundaries I don't want to crossed, and then I leave so I am not in the way. He was in way a bit but not too bad. Great job guys.
Awesome job!!! That fix will never fail. Aways glad to see your little ones. You and your Dad rocks! HAVE A BLESSED THANKSGIVING DAY 🙏 to you and your family 😊
Good morning from Maui ,another great video , you and your dad are terrific especially working in front of the customer , me on the other hand get very nervous when a customer is watching me work , you guys are awesome keep up the good work and have a nice day
I didn't know that Papa Dar had a campground. Learn something new everyday...or maybe I outta start listening closer and more often. Sure glad he contacted with you and your Dad. We like the way you both work...and so does Papa Dar...and so does the happy camper. With that job...I'm sure he won't have a problem on the way home...except maybe a little paint can't handle.
Love the fact you pointed out that you can over strengthen something and make the original frame a weak spot. Such a crucial thing to understand when repairing frames
I've watched all you folks, your family, everyone.papadar is my kind of guy.....I'm 66 and I was raised in a rock plant. If he called I would be there in a heart beat also. Good stuff for me. Thanks.✌
Nice helping out a visitor, through Papa Dar. That new piece looks pretty stout, especially with the angled brace. That should hold up pretty well, forever!
I owned an AT4 Canyon. Loved that truck. I often thought about towing a camp trailer with it. I was in doubt of the 3.6 V6 towing ability. The Missouri man proved me wrong. Thanks for another great video.
Nice job on that guys. I remember when I lifted my 1973 Boler four inches to put 15 inch wheels on it. That steel frame is pretty light. It sure raised the trailer though for getting into rougher spots. Thanks for the video.
Does Papa Dar send a lot of work your way? That word of mouth will always keep you busy. Great job on that hitch repair. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your Family's.
I wish you could've gone for a look inside. I would've liked to see his remodel! I live in a 85 Casita 16' camper. Sweet 19'! Looked much better on the way out even if you messed up the paint. His paint had lots of cracks in it!
Awesome you guys helpin' that ol' feller out. Pray that you & your family...as well as those here in the comments...have a very Happy Thanksgiving making memories and/or new traditions! God bless! ~ Scott 💙🙏🏼
Need to get Papa Dar a napping chair for the shop 😀
Lol. Agree. Haven't seen that in sometime.
@@macattack1392Usually his nap time was in the winter.
@@HazzyME He was too busy working the rest of the year to take naps, made up for those lost naps in the winter!
He could have not broke down in a better spot. Two great guys helped him out !!!
Shane and Sean have another happy customer ..that fix will take him across the USA...Good seeing Papa Dar
Great fix but it is always hard working on something when the customer is standing right over you telling you what he thinks is right
Very true!
I was going to say the same thing
I was going to give you & your dad credit for your patience with your customer! Very professional
I'm not going to lie, I would have used the ole. "I'm sorry, but you can't be in the shop for insurance purposes. Nice guy, but that would have driven me nuts.

You and your Dad are what we here in Oklahoma call, Good Ole Boys. Just ready, willing and able to help in any way you can. I REALLY like your show.
I appreciate that
Thanks

Nice job on the repair.

loved how you all talked things out!. no egos, just solutions.
Lucky to break down in this town , that structure looked pretty light duty for sure.
He has the added weight on the front of that hitch. The hitch wasn't designed for that. Plus, he's got those toolboxs hanging off the back bumper. It puts more undue stress on the frame that wasn't designed for that setup. You did a good job fixing it.
Great of Papa Dar to ask you all if you could do it. Whatever else you were planning that day, was held up only a short time. Great job, and one happy customer!
Yes
Having your own channel was a good choice for you Sean, it is exactly what I needed.
Thanks
Like your channel ALOT better than fabrats.
You guys nailed it!! You know that engine is screaming pulling that thing up and down those Utah mountains. Having a customer stand there is no fun, but he built it so I understand.

Good job helping get StePHen back on the road.😂
That ol timer will have a Utah story forever! All he gonna do when he gets home is paint it! Thxs
Always got time to help a man out, I know he appreciated your work and time. See ya next trip !
No doubt!
I worked in my daddy's shop since I was 5 holding the light and fetching tools. One thing that I really appreciate is a tidy, uncluttered shop. When I got my own shop, I decided that the last step in every project was clean and put away the tools. Sean's dad's shop is my kind of shop.
Great point!
I like watching you make people happy....and believe me....that's not easy!
Thank you, guys, for fixing the trailer. He didn't have very many more miles before that completely broke apart. Have a happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
He would have never made it across the reservation. Thanks have a great thanksgiving day
if you have to break down you found the right guys to fix it for ya another day with a awesome family
Sure helped him out of a bad spot, that was pretty cool!!✌️🇺🇲
Having worked in a small shop for a few years, I remember that our favorite customers were the ones who dropped the rig off, said fix it, call me when you’re done, then left. 😂 I try to be that guy. Great video, thanks for sharing.
We didn't even have to be there for the whole interaction to know that he's not one of those favorite customers.
Guys , you made a friend with Stephen for life. Just the piece of mind he has now that it's fortified . Thanks for sharing, and stay safe.
Consultant Dar has contractors all over Utah 👍😎✊
hehe, Papa Dar is like omnipresent 🙂 Cool project, and a good job it seems, and certainly good that it got fixed before an accident happened.
It ain't easy fixing stuff with the customers around, that are sometimes second guessing everything you do... but this gentleman seemed to actually know a thing or two as well.
When I break down (and I will) I hope I am close to you guys and Papa Dar.
Great job fellas! It was never a question if you could fix it but rather how. Papa Dar knows who he can call on.
˝Great Video! The 5th wheel looked a lot better after your repair.
Thanks 👍
The fabrication talent out of Long Valley is absolutely fantastic. Keep up the good work and content!
Thank you! Will do!
Nice job, Gents! The customer seemed knowledgeable and was wise to kinda stay out of the way. I’m sure he was a happy camper when he left! (No pun intended)
We agree!
HWY 89 road ambassadors. Bet that guy is thankful Pappa Darr sent him your way.
Looks good it came out nice. It will never break again. Have a good sunday with the family.
Same to you
I know the owner meant well, but I think ,I would of told him no customers in the shop.
Good to see Papa Dar and he knows who to bring welding jobs to when their needed. Shane and Sean working their magic fabricating, welding supports in the rv trailer so the gent can get home safely towing his trailer. Good video and content!
You guys are great! Really cool stuff what you did both for the guy and with your work.
That was about ready to let go. After your repairs it will now last forever.
You guys are perfect for this job!
Honest & great work!
Great video that man was lucky the hitch didn't break completely off
Yeah thanks
Sean you abd your Dad are Great. The best part is spending time with family. Keep them comimg
Good job and good to see Papa Dar

Y'all did a good job, he'll make it home now, no problem

Wow, thank you
Good job guys! I hope you charged him extra for him to supervise! 😎
You did a great job fixing that old trailer. Stephen will never forget his time in your shop. It's good to see Papa Dar, too.
It’s always fun when Dar comes around
You should stop by
Great fix. Glad you could help him out. Good to see Papa Dar!
Shane and Son/s to the rescue..... interesting to see ya'll !
Wow, I hope he feels lucky! People like you are few and far between. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks
Good on the owner to pick up on the problem too. That could have gotten real ugly crossing the rockies
Awesome job Shane and Sean, another great video! Y'all are true craftsmen! I look forward to seeing the next video
Thanks 👍
You guys have a great attitude so calm and nice
We try but not always the case
@ I hear that.
Stephen, you and I both know it's not Park Hills, it's Flat River!
That had to be a bit nerve wrecking welding up against chip board. Good job!
Yes it was!
Fixing it right in spite of the customer, lol. A lot of old timers say “good enough”. You dad over does everything, love it
GREAT VIDEO SHANE AND SHAWN TY
Definitely 200% stronger. Well done on that repair!
Your know how on so many diverse projects fascinates me. Can do attitude is fabulous.
Nice helping out a visitor, through Papa Dar. That new piece looks pretty stout, especially with the angled brace. That should hold up pretty well, forever!
When dad says it is good I would be totally relaxed, he is a iron work master 🤗👏
Another good one guys, thanks and I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving.
Thanks! You too
I owned an AT4 Canyon. Loved that truck. I often thought about towing a camp trailer with it. I was in doubt of the 3.6 V6 towing ability. The Missouri man proved me wrong. Thanks for another great video.
I just bought the duramax model and so far we love it
I gave considerable consideration the Duramax but the dealer talked me out of it. Plus it was a lot more money. Best of luck with your purchase.
GREAT JOB!! You guys are GREAT!!
Thanks so much!!
Thanks for the fun video 😊
Any time!
This was very interesting to watch! I pull a bumper pull for 20 years.
Nice job on that guys. I remember when I lifted my 1973 Boler four inches to put 15 inch wheels on it. That steel frame is pretty light. It sure raised the trailer though for getting into rougher spots. Thanks for the video.
Right on
What a great thing for you and your dad to do!
Excellent bracing and good video of the job. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
Thanks, you too!
@@89Built Thank you.
Great job again.
We appreciate that
We LOVE Papa Dar!❤
Another good job thank you again guys
My son judges the road by whether the clock is still on the wall
Does Papa Dar send a lot of work your way? That word of mouth will always keep you busy. Great job on that hitch repair. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your Family's.
Sometimes
I actually weld a lot of stuff for dar
Great work
good job like seeing you and your dad working together
Thanks 👍
Nice job ! Thanks for sharing !
Thanks for watching!
great as always great content very entertaining good job
Much appreciated
You are right about those roads near Shiprock. That will be the strongest test known to man!!!
For reals!!
I wish you could've gone for a look inside. I would've liked to see his remodel! I live in a 85 Casita 16' camper. Sweet 19'! Looked much better on the way out even if you messed up the paint. His paint had lots of cracks in it!
Great video Sean - glad you got you own channel up and going!
Thanks 👍
You folks are what are called "Good people". the world is better thanks to people like you.
Thank you I’m betting just like you as well!!
Great job. I live about 25 south of where he lives. Couldn't believe it
Sweet
Great Job & I Really Liked That Extra Center Brace 👍👍👍😜
Thanks! 👍
Great seeing papa Dars.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I have the same Scamp 5th wheel camper now I have to go inspect the hitch. Great job guys
Awesome you guys helpin' that ol' feller out. Pray that you & your family...as well as those here in the comments...have a very Happy Thanksgiving making memories and/or new traditions! God bless! ~ Scott 💙🙏🏼
Thanks! You as well
