After watching this I am going to let the experts do it! Have a great weekend!💕

I bought the same one today and breaking the bead was not happening on 20 year old ranger wheels. The soap in the bead was the advice that helped!! Thank You And the stem removal and no attachment on compressor hose was epic advice for setting the bead. Thanks for that too!!

Great job Bud, one or two tires and the apparatus has paid for itself, Right on Tyler !!

For a second I thought it was Thursday morning.....my bad!!! lol. I just bought a pair of tires for my Honda Foreman ATV yesterday. Not cheap...I'll be putting those babies on this weekend.

Good video. A few suggestions that may be helpful. 1) The HF full size tire changer works better on ATV tires. It has a index pin that keeps the rim from rotating. 2) Inflate the tire to 5-7 psi to break the bead. This works even after one side is broken. 3) HF sells tire tools that are handy for this work. 4) HF sells a lock on air chuck that has a short air hose and pressure gauge that keeps your hand away from the tire when resetting the beads. 5) New tires are frequently compressed in shipment and difficult to expand sifficiently to get the beads to hold air. A ratchet strap around the tire tread helps expand the bead.

Brilliant and you explain things so well

You need to weld something on to the stand that you mounted the tire changer on that has a solid pin the comes up and sticks through one of the bolt holes in the rim that way it will foul the rim in place that way it can't spin around when your breaking the bead that way you don't have to hold it in place and that will give you an free hand to hold the bead breaking tool the tire changers in tire shops has the same thing but it retracts when not in use

I had a Coats Rim Clamp briefly and sold it and bought a HF manual. Never looked back. The Rim Clamp tore up a couple of beads and the bead setter jet system didn't work for nothin'. I'd rather get good at the manual dissmount and mount.

Being a guy who has changed countless numbers of tires fro skidder tractor truck tires from 10.00 20 downward I would recommend squirting some of that soapy water on the bead and valve stem to check for leaks the little white bubbles mean troubles. Great video and yeah like someone mentioned new tires new valve stems. 😁👍👍

Use a stiff Cheater Bar Get a big weighted rubber hammer. Hit the tire while putting pressure on the tire with the Bead Breaker Bar. When you put the tire back on or a new one, make sure you get all of the rust off of the wheel, down to clean metal. Then paint over rusted area and allow to dry. Permatex makes a paint on Rust Treatment in an 8 oz bottle. It works great when can not clean rust all off to bare metal. By the way - OSHA SAYS freshly mounted tires should be aired up in a cage. If possible use a lock on air chuck with a remote valve on the hose. The Rust Treatment chemical I use is made by Permatex in a 4 oz bottle

Good Job FTR.

Thank you Ra Wa! I like that

I attached the red base to 2in square tube, and use it in hitch receiver. This way I can work on tires anywhere, just drive my gator there. For extra rigidity I put wood blocks underneath.

When using the bead breaker make sure the edge toward the wheel is as close to the wheel as possible even to the extent of pounding it in between the wheel and the tire. The farther out you are the more flex in the tire sidewall will absorb the energy you are putting into pushing the bead off of the wheel You can see in your vid that the sidewall is flexing away from the wheel and your bead breaker is not pushing straight down on the bead. Watch the action of a regular tire machine the bead breaker is pushing down and in not out and away from the wheel. I would try to keep the wheel locked down as tight as you can get it as you loose force when the wheel is able to move away from the holder.

Thanks for the video Tyler, not many people today would not even know how to change their own tires, they take them somewhere or have a company come in to do it. It's a lost art, good job for doing it yourself!

When you first put the tire on the changer you should tighten the center of the tool really tight. Doing this will keep the rim from turning. You were having a lot of problems trying to hold the rim from turning and that would solve that problem. If you look at the part that sits on the rim you can see that it has a concave shape. That is why you should tighten that down very tight.

If you have a huge amount of compressed air that will do it. If not then use a tie down strap and crank it around the tire to force the bead to mead up with the rim and add your air. Once you get the bead set you take the strap off. Or put some gasoline in the tire and light it, seen that dome plenty of times too.

Good work!

That's a great job for someone else.

Well... Now you know why the tire shop has air powered tire machines... You did pretty good Tyler! Leverage is your friend!!!

Good job, I use one to change tires on my landsailers in the middle of no where. Thanks

I have been doing my own tires most of my life. It is a man's job. Don't be afraid, but be careful and try to think ahead before you act. Experience will make it easier. Understanding how how the tire goes on and off really makes a difference too. Examine the rim to determine which side the tire comes off from before you start. I dealt with many split rims years ago, but you will not likely ever run across them. If you do, a tire shop won't help you. You did fine. It will be easier next time.

I don't mind the green slime, works well with non-highway tires. Fix-a-flat, or like I call it make-a-mess, is not used properly most of the time and it just makes a mess.

Very good video

Loved your video ❤️

Pretty good deal. I use slime too!

Great video as always (even of ya was looking at the wrong camera, just poking fun at ya). Call me lazy but I'm still going to take the tires to the tire shop. I tried changing them once and decided never again,

To break the bead next time use the tractor bucket to down on the tire. 😉 or your 3 point, with the hay attachment.

Nice. I don't mind tires that size because they fit on my bigger manual tire machine. What I HATE is the little 8 inch rims on my Grandpunk's four wheeler.

I'm looking for something that will work better on tiny wheels. This looks like it might be the ticket. Thanks for sharing.

You can buy an air chuck that locks onto the tire valve, so you can stand back in a safe area while you seat the bead.

We use our tractor to beak the bead works great after you do that.

Nice! I’ve always been a fan of harbor freight. Their pneumatic and hand tools have been pretty reliable (aside from a couple broken sockets). I stay away from any of their tools with brushed motors, been let down a few times by cheap buffers and a drill.

Yeah I stay away from that stuff too. It’s always a trade off on quality vs. price. If it’s something I use a lot or will really depend on I’ll spend the money. Otherwise HF has some good alternatives!

black rubber is the tire valve body. the inner part is called the valve core or more commonly schrader valve.

Nice job. Hard but better to do it yourself. Prices in California to get that done is really high.

When mounting the tire on the rim make sure the opposite side stays down in the center of the rim, the whole time, while mounting it with the bar. Not just in one spot like you did but about 45 degrees around the rim. When you force a tire with the mounting bar you can break the cords in the bead of the tire. The piece you removed from the valve stem is the valve core. Thanks for the video.

It's called a VALVE CORE!!! The Valve Stem is the part that goes into the rim.

Nice job for the first time you can always use a big pipe to make your job easier and allows keep the tie in the center of the rim you'll love it I think you missing other parts it's like spring axle goes to the log nuts hole this way the tire doesn't twist

I work for a city municipality and years ago while the boys at the tire shop were seating a two piece rim from a garbage truck , one part of the rim came out of the cage and took a guys head off ,true story. Those are the same type rims that are used on mobile homes when you move them. Very dangerous business.If you’d like I can send you the picture. I heard a similar story that happened at a fire stone back in the 70s.

I'm thinking you should use the hole closest to the center. It will give your more leverage.

Truck tire shops use a tire cage to set beads. The old two part wheels with the removable rings were the most dangerous. The part you removed from the valve stem is the core. The stem is the part that sticks out of the wheel. Always put a new stem on with a new tire. A rookie mechanic airing up a new tire on a business jet with hi pressure nitrogen blew up a wheel and took out a wing on a jet. He was at the wing tip and the wheel went from the tip to the fuselage taking out all the structure on the way. Fortunately he was not killed. That shop went out of business.

Same way. I always jump duck and weave when bead pops

My only critique is that the piece you kept calling a valve stem is actually the "core". I've changed literally hundreds of tires, and this setup looks pretty straightforward. Also, Slime is not only nasty and rarely works long term, it also makes it extremely difficult to get a patch to adhere properly when you try to repair the tire correctly.

So how did you get the tire to stop sliding?

Great review tyler. People tend to run down harbor frieght. But they have alot pf great tools for great prices. Plus their guarentee. Do they make one for like car and pickup tires? Sure beats some tire irons on the ground, ive done a few semi tires the old manuel way again thanks for sharing

Setting the bead. Lol. If you worry about setting the bead. You would really freak out on a old split rim. They were dangerous. Seen a few sping. They were known for taking heads off, top of head off and inbedding into heads. Every uncage springing I knew of resulted in death All I needed was to see one spring in a cage. It dented the cage. After that, I would not do one without a cage. Some people would wrap a chain around the tire. But I seen that fail also. All I'm saying is on a scale 1 to 10. The pucker factor on a split rim is 1000. Thanks for the video. I was thinking of getting one. But after seeing it desided not to. Looks as hard as using a pick and spoons. I'LL just do it that old way. BTW. If you have a tire that just won't set the bead; the following are good ways. GAA grease Lard There is a soap that's as thick as GAA. Have used it but don't know where you get it. And then there is the pyro method. Spray inside tire with an arousal. Throw a match at it and back up QUICK. makes a loud POP. Oh and some flameage. The pop puts out the flame. Now this one also has a high pucker factor. Because the pop sounds like a 12 gauge. I only used this one when tire is extremely hard to sit. Its a last resort.

5:00 You've got to get the toe of that foot way up under the rim. Whack it with a mallet when you start pushing down. The handle your left hand is on looks like it was meant to be pulled to keep it under the rim. I wouldn't think twice about making thing longer for more leverage. Ordering mine today. :)

We are lucky enough to have a pneumatic tire changer. But that pop will make you jump the first few times. But tractor tires and using starter fluid to pop the bead out really gets me on edge lol
