Thanks Bruce. This is very helpful for someone who wants to build this attachment. For parts, this is what I picked up from this video. 1 ft of 2 in ID pipe to sleeve onto tire changer, 1 ft of 2 in OD Square Nesting Tube for horizontal, 1 ft of 2 in OD Pipe vertical that duck attaches to, 3 in of 2" square ID nesting tube, , 3 in of 2 in ID pipe for vertical sleeve interior, small piece of steel plate to mount duck, outdoor faucet handles, nuts, bolts, duck, and centering cone. Thanks again Bruce.
Hey Ted. Sorry, I'm just seeing your comment now. Sounds like you have the materials correct. Let me know how it turns out, maybe post a video. Good luck.
I built mine with all square tubing except for the pipe that goes over tire hold down pipe. It made welding easier and everything is receiver hitch tubing except pipe.
Thank you for the great information! I recently purchased this HF changer and will be putting it all together soon. Your mods are a nice addition to the changer. Take care 👍
Hi This was a very concise video on how to make the duck head adapter, as a guy from the UK these are notoriously expensive to buy for what this is, and with your instruction and measurements I can make this at home easily. Hey as long as your welds hold just fine then that’s a job well done. Thanks for the video. Cheers. Steve.
Thanks for the kind words, Steve. Some of my videos are goofy, some are funny, some are boring and some are just odd, but I do try to make videos that help people in one way or another. So, I'm always happy to read that one of my videos was of use to someone. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Mine is still working perfectly. In fact it;s easier every time I use it. You develop a technique and little tricks that make it easier and faster. Have a great day, My friend
Hi Bruce, we chatted over at Grampie' about the Auto Body experience and I thought to look you up. Interesting about the tire changer mod. I'll try this. Just this past week, I dropped a winter tire off at a local gargage for a slow leak. A few hours later I picked it up and they charged me $45 ! I was on Princess Auto website and the others, looking for a deal on a tire changer. Anyway, I've subscribed and would like to keep in touch. My wife is from Edmonton and I lived there in 2012-13. Now we are in BC on the coast. Take Care, Craig Everyday Projects
Love the tap handles very functional and cool looking, I bought the same changer on sale like 3 years ago at princess auto and haven't used it once lol
Thanks for the video Bruce, you inspired me awhile back to make my own and I was the one asking about dimensions and stuff, I got it all figured out and it works so much better then what you just get from harbor freight. Using theirs as is is damn near impossible.
Excellent information. I reckon I'll just make the height longer for 4X4 wheels. I have pneumatic clamps that grab the rim on mine. From an old gas station machine. Thanks for the video Mr.
Very well explain Bruce , thank you brother to take the time and do this video i almost buy a electric tire changer but i think this is going to work perfect , thank you again.
How's she goin'? Nice mods to the tire changer. Amazing how the little things you add to a tool makes the tool so much better at doing what it should be doing!!! Thanks for posting!!!
I like this video a lot due to the explanation of the material and measures of it. Thanks a lot for the information. I think I will try to do one for me. Thanks a lot
@@BruceLyeg thanks I bought a duck head with the plate with it ,the plate fit down in side the Duck head with two bolts holding it in place ,i want to try to make another plate lik your and used the one i bought for a pattern,,I really like your setup, thanks again.
Thanks Pretty sure the tubing is 2 1/2 inch x 1/4 wall and 2 inch standard wall .Both are measured in OD. Also if you don't want to make a 2 bolt companion flange to mate to the rubber duck you can buy one and weld it on. Thanks for the measurements >Very helpful!!!
you dont need a duck head. best way to not scratch or damage the rim edge is simply to turn the rim upside down with the face pointing downwards. Just cut a hole in a rubber mat and place it on the top surface of the harbor freight tire changer. When working on the backside it doesn't matter if you get some minor scratches
The duck head does more than prevent scratches. Most importantly it makes removing and installing the tire much easier. Auto correct almost got me there. It tried to change “Duck head” into “Dick head” hahahahahah
@@charredskeleton yeah..he has no idea what he/she is talking about, the drop center on some rims are in a diff spot on some rims, which will make it very hard to get the tire to mount on the rim if you do not get one lip of the tire in the drop center..lol. i will agree with he/she about not worrying about the backside getting scratched though, but it will be near impossible to get the tire mounted doing it this way.
I want to see it work. It's a great idea. I've worked with metal for 40+ years and see a problem with the round vertical tube spinning out of position under stress. Let's see it work.
@@BruceLyeg I mounted a duck on the end of a 3ft 1 1/4 in pipe and changed the angle a couple times before getting it as close as I could and still binds a little, but minimal effort getting tire on and off without ruining the rim. You did good. 👍
Question: Where the 12" long square tube is welded to the 12" long round tube, how did you notch the square tube? Grinder? I just ordered all the steel. Can't wait to build this.
@@BruceLyeg I just wanted to say thanks again for making this video. I got 'er all welded together today. I used my angle grinder, to make the notch like you said. My welds aren't pretty, but it'll work. I put it in my big bench vise and tried to break it and it's as strong as could be. Now, all I have to do is get 'er all painted up. I ran out of propane for the heater, so I'll get that done over the weekend. Have a great day.
Any idea how large of rims it can accommodate? I'm guessing 18-20 no issue? The HF ones all say 16" max, I'm guessing just due to the difficulty holding the stupid bar straight.
Thanks for sharing this. I changed out some 225/50r17 tires yesterday using the standard changer. It wasn’t to bad but this looks like it would have made the job much easier. It looks like the duck foot would protect the wheel from getting damaged during the removal and installation, is that correct? Btw: I bought my tire changer for $32 utilizing the 20% coupon.
Hey Scott. I used the tire changer as I bought it a bunch of times before making the addition. It works but the mod made it about 75% easier to use and yes, the duck saves your rims from scratches.
Hey Larry. No, not black pipe. It's all tubing I bought at Metal Supermarkets. If I recall, $90 bought me enough materials to make two of them. I'm assuming you're in the USA so probably half of that.
Whats the smallest wheel/tire you could change with this you think? Front wheels off lawn/garden tractors or go-karts may not fit over the center I guess.
Ya, I decided not to do that anymore. It does nothing to benefit me and all it does is lead to people asking me more questions and then getting pissed off at me when I stop answering their endless questions. I may offer a kit for sale in the near future
Whats the little red lever for? (half way down). Ahh, it's to slot into a hole on the wheel to stop it spinning around the machine while your rotating the tire lever bar
Will it work without the center cone?? It is getting expensive. Also, did you modify the pin located near the center cone. Mine is preventing the wheel from centering.
@@BruceLyeg ... Hey Bruce, you can use an ABS Reducer/Increaser Coupler as the centre cone. I cannot justify spending $100 USD for a centre cone which costs more than the Princess Auto tire changer. My wife would go ballistic.
If you mean the taped cone, I bought it on eBay from someone ( can’t remember who but if you do an eBay search for tire centering cone you should find it)
Good idea! I think I'll attempt the same thing soon. I was looking at the red duck bills lately. The ad says it's nylon. You mentioned polyester. Are they similar? Can you post the link where you bought the duck bill and tire iron? Thanks!
You said inside diameter of the main upright pipe was 2 inch, later you said it was 2 1/2 inch, later still you said 2 inch. If the duck bill pipe is 2 inch as you said, then the main upright looks to be 2 1/2 inch from just looking and guessing. Could you clarify that please
It's made of a type of plastic. I don't remember if it's nylon or another type. I got it on eBay but you can find them on Amazon too. Even Wish sells them.
Thanks! Here's a link to the cone lucidautowerks.com/collections/ultimate-manual-tire-changer/products/manual-tire-changer-billet-aluminum-centering-cone
I have watched three of your videos dealing with this modification to your harbor freight tire changer. It is sort of anti-climactic to not show what all the fuss was about? Are you ever going to post a video of it working?

Come on down!!! Bruce’s used tires! Weekend sale buy one for the price of two, we’ll trough in the second for free!!!!
Having worked in a tire shop when I was younger, I can honestly say that I never want to work in one again!
I’m so going to copy your design.
Go for it. Post a video when finished. Still using mine a few times a year
@@BruceLyeg I’ll be sure to give you credit for the design.

Hi Bruce!
Hey Dennis.
How to buy
I think someone sells a similar item on eBay
thank you for the dimensions given. i dont understand why car guys willing to pay dollars to companies that makes these mods, when the mods arent really that hard to make yourselves.just buy a duckhead, couple of tubings and weld them. why give money to rich companies for sth so simple?😅
Exactly my thoughts! Thanks you

And here I thought the Canadiens used the metric system. So one foot is 30.5cm. Fracking Jimmy Carter.
We use Metric and SAE. Mostly we just use cubit, stone and furlong.
Can I pay you to build me one
Sorry Josh. I'm in Canada and the shipping would probably make it way to expensive

Hay una persona que los hace y los vende. Busque "Lucid Autowerks". Él tiene algunos videos en RUclips. Sin embargo, son un poco caros. Gracias por mirar, mantente seguro y cuídate.
