The Rebbe changes a tire and meets another Rebbe

Recently, the Rebbe was driving his undercover vehicle so that no one should know he is a heilige Yid. As he was going on the Palisades Parkway, he saw a vehicle stuck on the side of the road. Thinking there might be a medical emergency there, he stopped.

When he went to as the people in the vehicle if there was anyone hurt, the response was, "no not us, its our van." The Rebbe saw that the back tire was off, and the van was jacked up, but the driver apparently ran out of the strength to jack the van up high enough to get the new wheel on.

So the Rebbe went back to his Rebbemobile, and took out the X bar lug wrench that he carries. he went back to the minivan and started to finish the job. As he worked, he asked who everyone was. The driver informed him that he was driving a Rebbe (whose name The Rebbe did not catch), one who had a big sheel in Monsey. The other passenger was his Shammis. ( I was hiding in the back of the Rebbemobile, so as not to give away the greatness of the Rebbe.)

When he finished, he went about his business, without revealing himself, but earning the gratitude of another member of the Rebbeshe group.
