    I use the trailer hitch on the back of my SUV. Set the tire down along the receiver's centerline, throw a scissor jack between the receiver hitch and the tire and start cranking. The jack's base is almost a copy of a tire store's presser foot. Works great too.

    Well done!
    I tried it on two 23 year big and OLD trailer tires and it did not quite get it (practically welded to the rim amazing as that sounds), so ended up using a farm jack as a clamp. I think your technique helped a lot and got it started.

      I had a failed heating system water valve, deep in a horrible very shallow crawl space in an OLD house. Guy who actually does installations for a living offered to fix it. He went down with new valve, a torch, copper tubing and other things ”necessary.” I went along to watch and maybe help.
      He cut copper water supply line to remove the valve, and, to my horror, dried the pipe with with the torch, remarkably, without incinerating us both, and managed to install the new valve. Not prepared for another nerve wracking experience when another valve failed, with on line help, I went down myself with a new valve, flashlight, and an off set screwdriver. Installing a new one took minutes.
      I`m actually a 7Oish woman, with a very mechanical mind. YT requested one and that just popped up.
      I never told the initial installer as I have never told a man I can readily see what he cannot~an old `his ego` and old and stupid his ego thing. though many have told me I cannot do something, when, very clearly, I know I CAN, and do. Aint life a laff!
      Great post. Just what I was looking for. Found another on fixing my one power windows. Told two hours and double the cost I got the part for. A hundred bucks and a hour of my time VS estimate of FIVE hundred bucks.
      I LOVE RUclips DIYers.

    This method is acceptable if you're not planning to reuse the tires. If you deflate the tire as much as possible with the valve core is still installed, you greatly reduce have a risk of it launching itself. If you have clip on weights it's a good idea to remove them right after deflation

    You could also use the rotor of the car you're changing tires on and lower the jack with the rotor on the edge of the bead till it pops off it also wouldn't try to flip the wheel as easily. You also might want to lay something down to not scratch the wheel was said before

  • @lawrenceclick9065

    I'm glad you can do this , but I see so many ways this could go wrong with a average guy / in the front of your car that plastic that is so close , I can see the 4x4 or tire moving and you have a thousand dollars dammage to your car . probably a better choice for me anyhow is my truck which is much higher and putting the end of the 4x4 instead of the side . less chance of the tire flipping into the car , with a truck it would probably hit the bumper if it did flip up not causing as much dammage if any

  • @programmer78
    @programmer78 Год назад +2

    In the case of your life depends on the tyre - no questions. But IRL side effects of such a procedure aren't worthy the result. Which side effects? One may damage bumper of the car (if wood stick slides), may damage cabin if wheel jumps at the last moment, may scratch the rim, using metal tools for removing tyre. It's 21st centure! I used this way back in 1993, when I was a 15 yo boy and we didn't have tyre service in my town. The method is functional, but it is using tools, it is dangerous and dirty.
    But respect to the author for reminding.

  • @fitness0791
    @fitness0791 Год назад +6

    Just a few complaints about your technique... first things first you need to explain to people that you should place the rim front facing down on an old piece of carpet or something similar as to not scratch the front facing side surface of the rim... then explain that facing the rim front faced down means that you'll be removing the tire from the backside of the rim using hand tools that could very possibly damage the front facing surface causing irreparable damage... so next time remove the tire from the rim especially if they are anything but steel with hubcaps or unless your absolutely not concerned about damaging your front facing rim causing damage that can't be repaired thus not saving you any money let alone $5-$15 per tire is not worth the effort or the money if damage to the rim happens during removal/replacement of the new/old tires... great job otherwise but details matter... thanks for posting next time front rim facing down on an old piece of plush carpet or similar material would be best...

      remove the valve core, otherwise the tire stays pressurized and will probably explode at the sidewall instead of allowing the bead to be pushed down.
