My Camper's Brakes Failed on a Deserted Italian Mountain.

During a tour around the Italian Alps in my converted Ambulance, we climbed a steep mountain track in search of a wild camping spot, only to find on arrival that a brake pipe on the van was moments away from bursting and failing. A chilled weekend in the woods all of a sudden took on a very different vibe.
Heading back down the track was out of the question, I'd have to fix it here.
Digging into it I find that there was more than the brakes that needed attention.

This video has been release from my Patreon and is part of a full 13 part travel series.

As a fellow Sprinter owner, I totally understand to your mechanical hardships, and to this day am in awe of the engine/gearbox/everything swap you did! And not only that, despite it being literal years now, I can still remember the "start error" moment where Lance came to the rescue - one of the most touching moments I've ever seen on YouTube! I'm sooo glad you're not dead
