Great Video! Hoping to start my own Truck Tire Service here in Illinois, USA Appreciate you showing your videos, always something to learn Wish you had time for long format learning videos
Great intro to your tactical field operations. Or, as you may say, just another day. Seriously, it's interesting for us guys who never paid attention to all the commercial industrial tires rolling around in the general economy. All new to us. Thanks.
I did mobile tyre repair for 4 years in Idaho, had to work on loader tyres without a boom, even a 29.5, found a wrench through the sidewall of a tyre, had a street sweeper tyre blow apart on my drop-gate fly in the air thirty feet and slam into the back of the truck, had a lo-pro blow out the side wall a foot from my face, hit my face so many times with bars, drove the F-750 boom truck over Galena Summit to repair a tyre on a wood skidder and have changed so many truck tyres on the side of the interstate( they don’t move over here too!) Made me old quick. Now I just live that life vicariously through your videos.
Your completely right about the elements part. I don’t work mobile tire but I do work concrete, so I know what you mean. And the maintenance of tools as well. It’s very true.
I think I saw you when I was driving through Toronto doing a job I'm not sure but I was in a rusted old Chevy Malibu loaded down moving West, you are a boss at the job bud, keep at it, I might end up in the same field soon haha
Man, I used to feel sorry for our local tire guy. We had a fleet of rough terrain (12,000 lb capacity) forklifts in a steel yard and lemme tell ya, we went through some tires. If the crushed asphalt and crushed concrete didn't wear the tires out, the drives would cut the sidewalls including the extra thick sidewalls on the rear of the lifts that we couldn't foam because A. It voided the warranty and B. It made the machine ride like sh*t. And it never failed...it was either -20F or 95F when we needed a tire replaced or repaired. They didn't pay that guy enough, that's for sure.
I'm not a big guy. 5.6- 172 pounds. And I'm 62. I only like to work alone and I do everything from 26.5 R 25 and down, without a boom truck. I have a Chevy Box Van Dooley with a lift gate. I work alone. 2 days ago I traveled from New Boston New Hampshire to Ossapee N H. I did 2- 26.5R25 and 2- 23.5R 25. I left the shop at 8. 2 hour drive. One way. And was back by 430. I have a lot of tricks I taught myself. 29.5 R25. I just need a fork lift.
As a shop-bound tire technician and mechanic, I am extremely grateful I don't have to take my tools and cheetah blaster and bars and wheel balancer on the road going everywhere all the time. And imagine the annoyance of having to take care of your own tires on the road on top of everything else you're already working on if YOU catch a flat lol. No thank you!
@The French Pug What I'm referring to is I was getting ready to do a big job on a tire and it was nothing more than the air water tip of a valve called the core housing. You get set up for a 2 hour job and you're there 10 minutes and you're done.
Pretty sure you are in violation of the Canadian Online Streaming Act (Bill C-11). You failed to mention either maple syrup or Celine Dionne. Further, your captions were not available in French.
I occasionally do light truck or car tires. My issue is not having the right tools. I don't have a good way to break beads (skid steer works buy sneaking the tooth in the bead) or good irons, I use prybars and screwdrivers. Long story short, any suggestion on basic tools that will cover help me out?
I started doing my own tires thanks to what I’ve learned on your channel, thanks

Nice I love your videos 👍
Wow I got a heart it's the first heart I ever had thanks man.

Damn! Sounds like a super tough job.

Best one is a flat repair and it’s the valve core
I think I did one last video, was a blessing 23.1-26 valve core leak 😅
Nothing better than loading a ballast tub in your truck... your calcium pump. And you get to the job and it's just the core housing.
@Tire shorts I don't know what you are referring to but it sounds like a smack in the head moment.

So you are mostly saying being a mobile tire guy you can't work from home ,like a lot of younger generation adults want to do
He forgot to mention it's really shitty sometimes.
