Washer under valve stem cap was great idea. Have always worried my vise grips would harm the stem. That's an elegant solution.

Hi Steve, I'm in Melbourne Australia, and have an old Rover Rancher 11Hp each wheel has 2 half rims that bolt together and make this job so much easier.. but I find putting a small amount of air into the tube before inserting it makes it easier to keep the stem in place and also fitting the tube into the tyre. I love your idea of holding the tyre in the vice. Keep up the great informative videos. orh and ... cheers.. hic hic hic.. need another drink of beer.

Having split rims would make this job so much easier, you will find that when you replace your mower you get these awful solid rim things, and do not expect the job to go so easy as this demonstration shows, the old tyre will be really hard due to the sun for a start, and will refuse to come off the rim! Keep your split rims as long as you can! Chris B.
I would like to say a quick thank you. Here in Australia, there are few people willing to help out & impart their knowledge. I have watched a lot of your videos & the overwhelming amount of knowledge that you provide will definitely be of benefit to me with my tools. PS... I also love my beers. Thanks again!

Hi Steve, Everything you mentioned in the video worked according to plan EXCEPT!!! Putting the tire back on the rim with a crow bar. I tried it, the crowbar slipped and almost knocked me senseless. I’m pretty strong and I tried holding the tire down and against the rim, still the force needed to accomplish stretching the tire would need a second set of hands. Putting the tire on the floor and kneeling on it while I slowly worked it on worked ok but, it wasn’t easy by a long shot. I’m a contractor and nothing seems impossible although this project was uncomfortably close.
Can always count on Steve to show a practical , well-informed solution to many mechanical maintenance issues. And the "beer tour" ! !

Yeah the washer is a nice trick. Y'all can leave the washer on until air is in the tube to avoid holding it with the pliers. If you can't find the right size washer, drilling a hole in a coin works. Washer costs more than a penny anyways. lol.
@chuckd7423
4 жыл бұрын
@@whycantthisbeblank I'm not sure how that would work. The reason the washer works to keep the valve stem from retreating back into the rim is because the valve stem cap stops the washer from coming off the stem. You have to remove the valve stem cap to air up the tire, and once you remove the cap, there's nothing holding the washer in place, so the stem can retreat back into the rim.
@kernelbadness

I partially inflate tube to prevent stem from retreating. It also make it less likely to be pinched when recounting tire on rim.
I dreaded putting a tube in tires and changing tires. In fact, I have had new tires for a snow blower and several years ago I took the wheels off, and as soon as I put the tires and wheels on the driveway, I thought maybe they were ok and put the wheel back on with the old tires. After watching this video I put a tube in a tire on another snowblower and when I got done I told my wife, that was fun. Thanks for the video.

Just 10 minutes ago I gave up trying to break the bead on the rr tubeless tractor tire. It’s a bit dry but lubed with soap, no go. I tried clamps, even took by barbells with 75# leaning on the bead. Nope! Tried clamps. Ah-ah. I’ll try the screwdrivers, I’ve got big one and pinch bars. I loved the bar in the vise using it to peel the bead off. I’ll give it a go later tonight or in the morning. Got the new tube ready. Great video as usual. Steve, Plymouth, MA

Went to a local tractor supply store and bought 4 new ones. While standing in line to pay out, the guy behind me asked, "hey, buddy. Have you ever replaced any tires like that?". "No, I replied". He then said, " I've tried that...you better take them to a tire store to get them mounted!!" Your video makes it "do-able"....Thanks!

Not sure why anyone would give you a thumbs down on this one Steve. I am a pretty resourceful guy but I always learn something from your videos. :) I love the washer trick .... Brilliant. Just make sure to grab the valve as you did with the pliers when removing the cap when you get a flat. But then again, you are probably going to have to open it up again anyway. I love the idea Bob Haddock had with the Baby Powder. That will allow the the tube to untwist when you pump it up. Another Great Video Steve. Keep on Truckin, I mean drinkin! LOL Tractor Supply carries a variety of inner tubes.
At 9:02, he pushes the tire down then pulls it into the rim. This is super important to get the other side of the tire into/under the rim. Like he says a few times in the video, these small tires can be very frustrating to remove and install but following what he does makes it very easy, well maybe not easy but certainly easier. Good job Steve!!

Man, that washer idea is great. I tried installing one for the first time. Started airing up and it sucked back inside. Problem was, i couldn't deflate it to get it off to get to the stem. I found another trick was to use a locking chuck that clips on the stem when airing up tires. Remove the schrader valve and clip the chuck on there. Without the schrader valve if it sucks back in again all the air will flow out of the tube.
Your tips and tricks helped me greatly. Thank you. It really ticks me off that a supposedly quality product like John Deere would use what has to be the cheapest, poorest quality tires, and have the nerve to charge a fortune for replacements down the line... and that's if they even have them in stock. My local dealer wanted $149.00 wheel and tire (they didn't have just the tire). So good ole' Amazon sent me a tube for $10. You and I put the two together and we're rollin' again.

Due to age of vid I know you might not see this but I wanted to show some Appreciation. I'm partially blind and had a stroke-many years ago, I'm fine but it left a few issues like balance. So, that said I'm not exactly on the "I'll run down to the hardware store and get a new one' list. Was fighting this tire-actually it was needing airing up several times a month-very slow leak. Finally looked into tubes but, as with many. had issues getting the tread off the rim. I've had to make a few changes-no vice so a piece of hurricane fencing support-the thin steel rids, driven into the ground then using two others to peel the bead off. Now to reverse engineer your method of getting it on-no way am I going to 'pull' that rubber apart by hand to reseat te rim but this gave me a starting point so thank you.

Good stuff!
Today I had to install a new tube in a 5" tire and followed all your directions and all except how to get the tire back on the rim worked fine. After spending an hour standing out in 30 deg. temp. I still could not get it to pop back on. What did work was I set it in place about 1/2 way and stood on it just like trying to break the bead and it popped right in place in about 30 sec.
Great help. I did it while watching. Man you saved me lots of time. Great video!
