Hammer works good on bottom
take a pair of vise grip cramp on rim to hold tire
Every time that tire popped and Rachael made a noise, I giggled so much. Thanks for the laughs this morning. Great job.
Oh yeah she was scared it was just going to explode.
Before buying a bead blaster I always use to take the core out of the valve stem and use just the quick connect on the airline to shoot air in through he valve stem, I do have the harbor freight bead blaster to change my dump truck tires and it works extremely well. Anyways take care fellow Michigander.
Thanks Zach, I think I’ll have to pick up a bead blaster.
That is a great tool to have for jobs like that, saves time and money!
For sure, thanks Obie.
We all need one of those tire changers. Great tool.
Yes they are, a bit of work but I love having it.
Nice tires on the little tractor
Thanks David, now to get the fronts mounted.
That’s a really handy tool. Nice work Sir!
Yes it is, thanks Brent.
Rachel is going to miss looking at those tires during supper.
Luckily for her we’ve been so busy with the kids sports as wrestling season is closing out we’ve been eating on the road quite a bit lately.
Nice tire tool to have around! I worked at a rock quarry when I got out of the military and we changed a lot of truck tires! The old dangerous ones with the two piece rims. I get why Rachel made the noise when the bead set😂 Kubota should be able to drag out logs now Heath💪🏻
Thanks Todd, oh yeah the split rims. We had those on the planes I worked on in the AirForce. We’d cage the tires when working on them. Rachel was a bit jumpy for sure.
It’s a fact great tools save money and accidents, it’s snap on or Matco for this old retired diesel mechanic 😊❤❤❤
For sure, my dad is a retired diesel mechanic as well. He now has his 50+ year collection of tools in his home garage. Too bad he lives 3 hours away!
yeah I see a video in the future of you guys digging a hole and pouring some concrete for a real heavy base for the tire changer. It's the same down here in Texas Heath. Just a few years ago you could get a tire fixed and changed for $10-13. Now everybody wants at least $20. No doubt you saved yourself. Especially when you mentioned a 1 hour drive to town.👍
For sure, not a one hour drive to town though about 15 minutes each way but they usually are busy and I have to drop them off and then go back later to pick up.
Tires look great. And will give great traction. 👍🏻
8 to 10 psi for those tires is what I use.
Some people use vise grips on the rims to hold the tire from spinning around while putting the tire on. Great tool to have. If you have 18” pry bars in you tool box you could use those until you get spoons. The trailer tire would be about 6 to 8 ply where as the tractors tire are 2 ply, the 2 ply tires are much easier to work with.
Great job. Have a great day. 👍🏻
Thanks Noel, I have them set at 10 psi now. I forgot my vice grips but could have used them for sure.
@@hardworkingmanoutdoors 👍🏻👍🏻👋👋🪵🪓🔥
We can hear Rachel laughing at your frustration.
Oh yeah she definitely likes to laugh at me.
Getting the tire off is always the easy part. Getting it back on is always hard for me too😂😂
I got pretty good at it when I did it a lot but I definitely struggled with these.
I used starting fluid, got a air tank off wreck truck and built me a blow up tank, worked great for just a 1 1/2 ball valve and junk pipe and welding 😊
I definitely need to come up with something.
Nice video. I like that you showed your frustration. We've all been there. Lol
Thanks, we all have those days! This was one of them.
My brother inlaw bought one of those tire changers several years ago and wouldn't work that hard and gave it to me so I taught him how they work and he said "nope I'll just pay someone ". City boy couldn't hang😅
They definitely take a little elbow grease but I love having it around!
Mounting a tire is my monkey with a football moment also!
I changed tires for about 15 years. It sucks with the professional equipment let alone by hand, but not too bad for some manual tire changes 😂
Definitely not fun, but rewarding when you win!
Now I know where to bring my flats. Ha
Swing on by, we’ll have you fixed up in less than a day, well probably lol.
Good job guys
Thanks Johnny!
Great job as usual, brother. You are indeed a machine when it comes to getting things done. God Bless you both. Chip
Thanks Chip, it was a bit of a struggle but still saved me some time and definitely some money!
High speed you balanced them my friend
I’ll get them when I get the balancer from my dad’s.
Nice. Job. Yes. Get. The. Tired. Out of the house
Thanks Ralph.
I have a Sears 16/6 tractor, vintage 1977. Put ag tires on front and back. AG's on front keep it from sliding
I hadn’t thought of that. Plus they look cooler.
@@hardworkingmanoutdoors makes it look mean
I started sweeting watching you work that hard😅. I have a manual tire machine I used for motorbike tires, some are easy and some just suck!
Bobby, some of them just want to be difficult. Others go right on. Definitely worth having though in my opinion.
HAY GUYS, THE KUBOTA LOOKS KILLER WITH THOSE NEW SKINS!!! BETTER ONCE YOU GET THOSE FRONTS CHANGED... THANX FOR THE AMAZON SIGHT; KEEP PUSHING ON, FOLKS... PEACE, FROM CREEL CHIHUAHUA,M MEXICO...
It will definitely look tougher! Thanks.
Hardworking man never gives up.
No I don’t! This didn’t go as planned but still better than paying.
My dad taught me this method. He went to work at a gas station driving tow truck and fixing cars in Detroit during WW II.
He was only 15 years old with just a special ‘farm permit’ license. They never found out. Later in the war after he was drafted, the Army trained him to be a truck mechanic.
It was definitely a different time back then. My dad’s first trip from the upper peninsula to Grand Rapids was when he was 14 years old. He drove the whole way. He started driving to school when he was 12.
My Dad was a truck mechanic also and he was sent to Patton Army
He said he also helped the cooks because he could eat all he wanted
Lololo 😊
That's awsome . Love these videos 😊
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback.
This is so painful to watch but I'm glad you got them done
Yeah, it definitely didn’t go smoothly. It’s been a long time since I’ve use this thing and I clearly forgot my tricks. Not afraid to share the not so great days though.
Great video hard working man I remember when I was younger trying g to.get the tires on with screw drivers and tire irons . Ugh it was daunting. That's a nice Kubota diesel tractor.. I'll def have to buy this tire changer
Oh yeah I just did them that way a few months ago. That’s what drove me to buy one of these changers. The one I used when I was younger is still mounted in my dad’s driveway and still gets used today.
Nice work definitely a money saver. I got cheap locking air chuck from harbor freight took the guts out of it. Put it on valves stem then hook the hose to it. Of course with valves them out. It really
Surprise you How much better the bead sets. Nice larger air hose helps too. Great video don’t hurt to work little to save some money.
Thanks Dan, at a minimum I have to get a locking air Chuck. Probably look into a bead blaster though.
@@hardworkingmanoutdoors definitely try out one them cheap one from harbor frieght that can take guts out them. It really does work good. I struggle for long time trying to get them to pop. Since did that I had no problems
Heath, have a roadside tire mechanic show you how to work tire spoons. I've seen many semi truck, or tractor-trailer, tires changes faster with only tire spoons. Am sure you can find someone newrby to give you some tips. Might also be good video, have a pro show us how to do it. I've seen small framed women swap out heavy truck tires pretty darn quick. Is all about knowledge and technique. To seal the bead, the "bead" or "tire" cannon is the way to go to seal the bead. Unfortunately, those bead cannons need a recharge of air after each use. The ratchet tool is a good way to go on a budget.
For sure, those guys definitely know what they’re doing. I used to struggle with this a lot less when I did it more often but it’s been a long time since I’ve done it.
@hardworkingmanoutdoors this is a good video, overall. Definitely can save a lot of $ on labor when doing the tire jobs you did.
I have always hated dealing with flat tires. I live at .east 8 miles from any town and it is always a hassle. I also have a lot of thorny growth on my place and usually get several flats on my mower a year. That machine looks handy for changing tires. I love those new tires for the Kubota, they ought to give great traction. That is why I don't mess with tires. I am too old for the aggravation.
James, flats drive me crazy! It’s a good tool to have but does take some work.
Try tireject it's an amazing product for tire punctures. Not the grean slime mess and rim rot when you do have to change a tire.
Tire repair is about the same in West Texas if you have it off allready 😊
Yeah it’s definitely jumped in price.
Inuse to do it that way. Also used starter fluid to set the bead as well. Now we have a bead seater. My goal was always tonfind a shop thatbis closing and get a coats machine and a balancer. Living on a farm. Tools pay for itself. I have 2 trailers with 9ntires includes the spare. 3 duallys 21 tires for those. A couple of Tandem trucks and tractore tires. Saves money doing it yourself. Nice Video Heath and Rachel!
Thanks Craig, I’ve been real close to buying a legit tire machine a few times but don’t really have the space for it. I’ve used starter fluid before but have seen a few too many videos the people get hurt! Definitely need a bead seater.
Heath I’d say your retired now 😂
lol, thanks Phil I’m definitely retired!
Clamp a vise grip on the rim to help with installing the last bead
Thanks, I forgot to bring one out.
For sure on lawn mower tires 😊
Rachel is this Heath first tire in his life to change , did I hear him right change a million went he was kid . He must forget things in life . Heath ATV easygoing with little trick .
I’ve changed quite a few but it’s been about 20 years. I forgot my tricks.
I have also used the ratchet method. Have also used the starting fluid method as well. We do what we gotta do! Great job Heath👍💪👍
Yes we do. I’ve used starter fluid in the past but the fail videos out there have me scared now lol.
The struggle was real. You never gave up though so kudos to you sir. That's why I pay the tire guy to do it. HA!
It was real, but I got it done in the end. Now to figure out how to use the other tool to do the front tires.
The down side is you need to get them balanced to make them run right and not bounce and reck the bearings on the trailer my friend
I have a bubble balancer at my dad’s I plan on grabbing the next time I’m on that side of the state.
If you have a Discount Tire nearby they fix flats for free. They’ve fixed about 6 flats for me the last several years no questions asked.
Yea, I go there to have flats fixed, but they will not mount tires for free. These tires all needed to be replaced.
Little starter fluid and a lighter may or may not be my bead seater method 😮.
I totally want a diesel lawn tractor!
lol I’ve done that before too but I’m a little gun shy after watching some of the fail videos.
@@hardworkingmanoutdoors 🤣
@@backyardfirewood9852 I need to find a good cheap deck for the Kubota!
Hey Heath and Rachel , I have the same changer . As many mowers I work on it was a must . Nice job !!
They do work, but they take some work as well.
Yes
Great learning curve. :)
My tire shop does use some kind of sealing paste to enable the tires to be easier filled with air after being complete empty. Maybe this would be handy for you as well?
Thanks, I had some bead sealer from when I used to do this more often but it went bad.
@@hardworkingmanoutdoors
Uh, that’s not good. Glad you found a suitable way with the strap for you. :)
Hello guys, Heath nice work 🤘🏻🇺🇸
Thanks guys, it wasn’t smooth but I got it done.
Atv tires we cut the bead with a cut off wheel then mount the new tire easier because u aren’t exhausted
That’s a great idea, I’ve definitely battled some atv tires before! I always win but it’s never easy!
I got one of them in the early 90s and got rid of it in the early 90s . WD 40 is your friend when changing tires .
I have one at my dad’s that we’ve had for over 20 years and it still gets used today.
I started out with a shop built version of that and now have tire machine and balancer. Not trying to be a tire shop but make a couple hundred extra per month.
For sure, I’ve looked at a few on marketplace, I just don’t have the space!
You need to soap your tires to make them come off much easier
I had soap but I think I diluted it too much.
Heath and Rachel another great 👍 video 😮😊❤
Thanks Todd.
Heath get some start fluid and a big air pig 🐖. Heath get some ASCOT TIRE and TUBE mounting compound, for mounting tubeless tires up to big 988 Cat loader tires .
Thanks Leonard. I used to have bead sealer but it went bad.
Push against a wall, one side on floor, one hand on top and knee opposite the wall.
Thanks!
I learned a long time ago breaking down tires pore a small amount of Gas around the edge of the rim it will help it to break loose from the rim . And if he will take a pair of vice grips clamp one side of the rim when you putting the tire back on it holds the tire in place keeps it from walking back off when you try to put it back on . I kept hollering at you how to do that but you wouldn't listen to me. Lmao I have owned one like that it's a pain to use .
Thanks, I used a vice grip the other day but forgot to bring one out this time. I’ll have to try the gas.
Last time that I had trouble getting the tire to seat, I used starting fluid. I know that it is not the safest but it worked. I tried a strap first.
I’ve tried that before too but have seen too many videos of tires blowing up.
On out door equipment I put antizee on treads
I do sometimes, that stuff has a way of getting on everything lol.
The good old harbor freight tire changer mines bolted to a heavy duty pallet so you can stand on it 👍👍
I thought this concrete would be enough but apparently I’m a bit too powerful lol.
You should buy yourself a set of torque rods for your impact. This will allow you to torque your tires to proper spec without using a torque wrench.. Makes mounting them very easy
Thanks, I’ve always wanted a set but never bought one. I definitely should.
Heath, I have the same tire changing tool. It's a simple tool and you only have to be smarter then it to use it. Lol.
I definitely wasn’t smarter this day. It’s been a long time since I’ve mounted a tire like this.
I found out a long time ago you've got to be careful putting them back on or you can break the bead and the tire will not seal then I had to put a tube in the tires to be able to use it then
I’ve never done that but will definitely keep it in mind.
The kubota is a beast Hi Rachel 😂
Yes it is! Love the torque.
I got one of those small tire changes. I probably do at least 8 tires a year with it. I got a slam hammer tool to break the beads and I got a bead blaster. very useful, but yeah ATV tires are the worse. when my skid steer needed tires I took those in instead of fighting with those
Oh yeah I wouldn’t battle skid steer tires! I’ll need to pick up a bead blaster!
In place of a bead blaster I have used a gas leaf blower and had decent luck with it. Also have a self clamping full pass thru chuck for the air hose. Stihl BG 85 blower with the flat profile outlet.
@@swanniee1359 thanks for the tip. Definitely need a clamping tire Chuck.
Nice work on those tires. That really is a nice little tractor. My buddy recently gave me his older John Deere mower. It has come in handy a lot with all the mud we have so I don’t rut the yard up with my bigger tractor. We use it a lot for collecting maple sap now haha. Also are you guys doin syrup this year? Haven’t seen you hangin buckets so thought I’d ask. Have a good one.
We plan on doing syrup but a lot of my trails are too bad to use. Definitely have to get some sets hung soon!! Thanks and the little Kubota is nice to have around.
Funny thing is I was watching your video and I’m like I e never gotten our tractor stuck. Then literally yesterday I was gathering sap and got it stuck in the mud after the rain we had. Immediately thought about the hard working man. I’m gonna need those at tires too lol. I jinxed myself
NO ! It is saying to you take me to a tire shop ? PLEASE!🇨🇦😄
lol, no way I’m saving my $$
Nice video Heath. I’m like you… if I can do something myself ln not going to pay someone else to,do it.
Thanks Dick, I think I’d still be this way even if I won the lottery.
You could put the outakes from that first tire on PPV to make some serious money
lol, I may have said a bad word or two.
hi there the old Coats manual machines had rollers on the tools i will do a short for you . its a hole lot better tool . . if you want to come over i have a 15,000.Acuturn tire machine .did a HWM and got a deal on around 10 of them . i can see it now HWN Tire Center ,your bead cant beat me , come on mud bog time , good fun show good to see you work for once , best to all john
Man I wish you were closer! Imagine all of the deals we could find and equipment we could mess with!
might be dangerous but fun @@hardworkingmanoutdoors
I am guessing the tire changing tool was for East/west tires and the tires you had were North/South tires 😂
Right, I was definitely a bit out of practice.
Those must be the outtakes like you used to do.... right?
Dennis, we still post them when we have them but don’t purposely do them. This was just one of those days!
Need lubricant on the beads. Makes off and on so much easier...
I had some dish soap water but I think it was too diluted.
@@hardworkingmanoutdoors at my tire store we used "Murphy's soap" and that worked great. Brake fluid also works.
Lawn tractors slow moving equipment you don't have to balance them
True!
🎉
Only problem is now the tire is not balanced
Yeah but a lot of places don’t balance trailer tires. I actually have a bubble balancer at my dad’s from when I used to work on cars but haven’t brought it here yet.
👍
Thanks Will.
Little grease for the jack lol
lol I noticed that. I’ll hit it with some Strikehold! That stuff is absolutely amazing!
I use a ratchet strap
It works, but not the best.
Get Rachel she more stronger Heath lol😊
She would have made it look easy for sure.
Hello for god sakes just read the instructions LOL
lol, I didn’t get any instructions with it. I used to use them a fair amount but it’s been over 20 years, a bit rusty.
Not my favorite task for sure. Looks easier with that tool.
It definitely helps! Still not easy, but it saves time and money.
