Watching those massive wheels popping out it's soo satisfying. I want that clamper!

I used to work for a tire company doing commercial trucks and buses 30 Rasta ago. The “tech” they show in the beginning isn’t new at all I was using that same stuff back then. That bead breaker is something new to me and would’ve definitely saved my back a few times.

The Astra Minilift looks like a real time saver. I wonder if it has some sort of fail-safe mechanism to protect against sudden hydraulic/pneumatic failures.

@@kentbarger8628 Thanks for sharing... I couldn't find any specific details about the safety features of the Astra Minilift. I see no reason why such a design could not meet an acceptable level of safety if it had features such as: 1) Strong construction combined with proper engineering and rigorous testing 2) A mechanical backup system in the event pneumatic/hydraulic system failure. Possible options are: the use of manually inserted locking-pins or the use of a ratcheting mechanism on each swing-arm with a lever that must be released before the jack can be lowered. 3) I see an increasing amount of aluminum-alloy being used in newer designs. Compared to steel, aluminum snaps suddenly and often with no apparent visible damage. Now, a suitably designed aluminum part is perfectly acceptable (e.g as in aerospace) so long as you routinely inspect the parts one-by-one for metal fatigue, using ultra-sound (best choice), eddy-current, x-ray, or UV dye (it's better than nothing). Let's be honest... How many mechanics have access to all that !?!

If you look at the video there using jack stands.

I learned really good content from this video. Thank you. I will continue to stay with this channel

Some really interesting stuff hands down.

The very first video cracks me up. My grandfather had a tire shop and when they went from split rims to a one peice rim. He mad one of those from a propane tank. That is old technology

I (and many "big tire" busters) have been using a tiny little shot of starting fluid (petroleum ether) to set the beads on tractor tires for decades. One half-second shot of the stuff to the inside of the tire, toss a lit match in there and BOOM! Bead fully set, all the way around. You have to have a can of the stuff anyways, it doesn't take up any floor space and that little bit isn't going to bankrupt you, nor does it need maintenance, lubrication, electricity or a hose to your compressor tank.

I mount 16.5's 950's on old school GM rims. The fronts are 9 inches and the rear 10 so that they align with the bodywork precisely. And yes, they did make 1000's 16.5. These were a unique size for RV's and float trailers to take the weight. Now here in Canada they just slap $1000's in fines if you use a regular tire on a home style trailer. However, finding someone with a couple of "tire blasters" and the experience to use them leaves me with one guy...

The bead seater is similar to what we used at les schwab tire center when I worked there, those things are insane! Coworkers and I were messing around(OSHA approved of course), and I got bombarded by a group of people who held me in place while they stuffed it into my shirt and released the max pressure 😂 blew all of the buttons off of my shirt and busted the latch on my belt off, dropping my pants straight to the floor

There is only ONE tool I have not used 40+ years ago... the magnetic hail dent remover... cool HOWEVER, a neutral flame on a torch at about 30 deg angle does the same with no paint damage either.

Using imperial units instead of metric is bad enough... but converting a 300 kg capacity to 661 lbs (down to a one pound accuracy, as if you put 662 pounds on it it will suddenly snap and implode) shows a gross misunderstanding by the script writer of how these ratings are specified by the manufacturer. Dude... say 660 lbs or even 650 as a round number is more realistic. Saying 7716:2 lbs capacity, down to the 0.1 pound is even worse. Please stop it.

Some of those things were good ideas.

That tool to help reseat the bead on tires is cool. But can’t hold a candle to The Old School method. I was on an excavation crew a number of years ago, when the 10 wheel Mack I was driving was low in psi and in a tight turn and broke the bead. We always carried air hoses and chucks to use the trucks air brake system to help blow up tires in a pinch. But with the bead unseated the other guys on the crew thought the worst! But you should have never seen the faces on them when I grabbed the can of starting fluid and asked if anyone had matches!!! One of the smokers handed me a pack of matches, then I proceeded to blow the starting fluid into the tire around the bead, they all went running behind something and thought I was crazy! But I folded the match over the book with the sulfur on the striker, then flicked it with my finger right into the tire, turned my head around and BOOM! The tire was right back on the bead, with actually 60 psi! Already! I added another 60 psi and was finished!! They were all looking at me like they had seen a ghost! My Dads old trucking company mechanic showed me that trick 30 years before that! I have used it on more than a few occasions!

The challenge for most hooks is they tend to come off when you remove the item which is hanging from it. On solution I've seen is to organize the hooks then use a small plastic zip tie to keep it in place.

Seeing people working under cars that are not secured by axle stands or similar devices always makes me uncomfortable. Each year fatalities are recorded as professional mechanics and diy mechanics are crushed to death because they failed to secure stand supports in addition to using a jack, which then failed! I don't trust seals on hydraulic or air operated jacks or lifts, I want a solid stand that secures the load with mechanical stops which cannot fail. One's health, future and life are too valuable to have it prematurely ended by a faulty or badly set lift.

I have one of the Sealey motorcycle movers. I have needed to replace the castors with stronger items as the original castors broke up. The bike is a Kawasaki GPZ 900R. If your bike only has a side stand, ABBA Stands make and sell a product for these bikes.

@notpoliticallycorrect1303

Жыл бұрын

Compressing air naturally produces water,most of which will come out,some will always remain,hence why water drains are provided on air tanks,compressors,etc. Aluminium doesn't rust as such but will corrode if left unprotected just from the air alone and why almost any aluminium you see has been passivated in one way or another.,Adding water will hasten that corrosion without a barrier,especially the water that comes out of compressors😮. Any internal and therefore unseen corrosion on any pressurised vessel is a risk, even more so with one that constantly tests the materials strength and elastic properties with repeated and rapid changes in pressure.

The cage is just for protection on high pressure seats. Since those have a tendency to explode. But the bead seater was first made by a company called "Cheetah" it is the "Cheetah bead seater". Ive been using one of these for over 30yrs!!! Not at all new tech. We use them more now that punks think stretched tires look cool for some retarded reason. Or on trailer tires. They need it a good bit if they're cold. Most of this is old tech but seems new to a mechanically uneducated persons. Its just newer versions of old equipment. Been around for yrs and in some cases over 100yrs. Just a newer version...... And with the cage you DO still have to lift the tire. For mount & dismount from the vehicle. From mount & dismounting the tire on the rim. & to chuck the old tire into the tire recycling pile. You wanna end a bunch of lifting??? Make a machine that changes the tire while still on the car & also balance it there too. Kinda like the brake lathes that work while the rotor is still installed. That would save backs. Especially on mud trucks or industrial trucks & equipment.
