    Did the same thing from 1983 until 1991. I worked for two different companies during this time one was road side and just semi tires and the other was fleet service where I did both tires and mechanical work. After watching this I can say this guy knows his job. I quit and went into another line of work when my friend and coworker was killed. He was killed by a tire that had been repaired days before and fully inflated. We would swap out tires on trailers with ones that we had already repaired and inflated. Back then there were a lot more tube tires mounted on what are called Dayton Style Wheels around. He was killed while rolling the fully inflated tire he took from our stock , the person who repaired this tire was from another company and had been brought in to do some work due too a shortage of employees weeks before. The wheel had not been inspected correctly before the tire was mounted and inflated. These types of tire/ wheels have 80 lbs PSI and it has always bothered me that it had sat in a row of tires for weeks and that day it let lose. I was blessed to not have had one blow on me, but I have been witness to the power they can unleash. I was always cautious those years I worked in the field and I am lucky to have had a great teacher when I was learning. If anyone doesn't believe me how powerful a inflated tire can be, look up truck tire fails.

      Saya bekerja sehari-hari dalam dunia perbaikan ban ,,,di Indonesia biasa kami isi ban seperti ini dengan tekanan 120-140 psi .....jika menggunakan ban dalam dengan pelak yang memakai cincin pengunci kami mengisi angin 150-180 psi....dan saya sadar pekerjaan saya sangat beresiko tinggi,,,tuhan Allah masih menyelamatkan saya ban yang saya isi angin meledak dan saya kena hantaman nya tapi Alhamdulillah saya masih diberikan kesehatan hanya cidera ringan,di Indonesia negara kami truk memang biasa membawa beban overload,20-27 ton untuk truk besar yang memakai 6 ban ,dan 25-45 ton truk dengan 10 ban.....truk trailer gandengan bisa membawa muatan 70 ton,, itu mengerikan dengan ban vulkanisir dan kualitas jalan yang buruk ... truk Amerika sedikit sekali di Indonesia,buatan jepang,cina dan Eropa mendominasi truk di Indonesia.....ban buatan cina yang paling banyak dipakai di Indonesia

      Your welcome, Denio! Changing the tire on a semi truck is no simple task. When it comes to the down and dirty job of replacing tires on a semi truck/trailer, the job can get rather complicated without the proper equipment.
      But, with skill and precision, I watched as you tactfully removed the wheel from the trailer before prying the tire off and skillfully sliding another tire back in its place. I know wrestling with truck tires is very physical. To be honest, you definitely have it down to a science.
      ¡¡Excelente trabajo!! :-)
      P.S. Me voy a ir a dormir. ¡Buenas noches!

    I think the back and forth is killing his time.
    He could get a Bucket, Dolly that carries a set of tools per side or tire set.
    He could have 2, 3 hoses feeding air to each station.
    He could've parked his truck (in reverse) at the back of the Trailer.
    He needs to organize his tires on the truck so doesn't have to rearrange at every stop.

    The tires that he is installing are FCR-Trailers, which are shallow Bandag trailer retreads 11/32nds ..... longest lasting retread on the market. He is doing pretty good, I work for the largest tire dealer in Michigan and in the 90's I was a service driver, the top 3 of us would change 4 tires in 20 minutes...... paperwork included. That kind of time was was only achieved with Hub Pilot wheels, the same kind as shown in this video. The other two styles took longer by a few minutes, stud Pilot are the worse because they have 10 barrel nuts that hold the inner wheel on and then beveled nuts holding the outer, as they got older they would stick together creating additional steps. Back then we would use ether and a lighter to seat the bead, we could also change the outer tires without using a jack or removing the wheel ..... about an 8 minute job including paperwork..... good stuff. He made a major mistake in this video, Hub Pilot wheels nuts have a critical torque specification of 475lbs and he didn't use a torque bar .... not even a stick on the gun. If he hammers them down way over he risks stretching the stud threads and stripping the nut, if he falls short he is at serious risk of a wheel coming off while in operation. If you notice, his air pressure and/or gun is running weak and that is why he had to set the gun down for a minute and then finish...... he had to let the compressor build air pressure back up, very dangerous!!!

    I used to work on hiway coaches and the have an outer and an inner nut, (Budd Wheels) sometimes the outer nut would be rusted on and the inner nut would come loose and you would have to use a special wrench (Dog) to hold the inner nut while trying to undo the outer one. Also a rim sometimes would be stuck on and you would have to beat if off with a sledge hammer from the inside while laying on your side, even after you heated it up. Talk to a tireman if you get a chance and you will get all kinds of stories.

    He failed to put in stands as a safety measure. I wonder about his lubes, they look questionable. No safety cage just in case the recaps blow up. He is good with the Golden tool for tire removal from the rim. I didn't see stem replacement which is a good practice. He got the dual stems opposite quickly. Truck tires typically have 100 psi so they can really blow. He didn't torque the lug nuts. He needs a better truck when he gets old ;-) if he makes it.
