It's the things you share, the education about the trucking business and mechanics you provide. With the Grace of God, you continue to do this everyday. Thank you!

[@24juan68]

Thank you Damian

[@jamiee172]

A pro at work. A man can do anything as long as he has the proper knowledge and tools.

[@timgear9892]

That tire guy sold me when he brought out the torque wrench. That is the way to get em tight so the dirt isn't holding them on. You found a good tire outfit with nice first class equipment.

[@Boodieman72]

That's a big ass torque wrench.

[@mcgbackyardersmaxwell1822]

It's a requirement in new Zealand to use a tourqe rench if the wheel comes of and you didn't tourqe it. You can be locked up

[@marke.1021]

Also looked like he put some goo on the threads first goo as in thread locker..That torque bar was cool to see though.

[@danpulley9488]

Just 10w30 like it's supposed to be. Mark E.

[@macelius]

Quite the torque wrench too. The way those lug nuts were loose I would have probably went around and check them all just for my own peace of mind.

[@bigninja2]

After 10 years he makes breaking tires look easy. He's got it down.

[@jmecillakennedy7102]

Ive done this job since 95 and changing tires isnt so bad.Just do it right and safely...one thing I didnt see on that truck was a tire cage to air the tires up in.I dont worry about new steers like I do the recaps.A tire can kill or hurt you bad airing it up to 110 psi.Good video..Keep on trucking.

[@maritimemisfits3360]

The cage is mounting that wheel to the vehicle, rim can't fly away when shes bolted to it.

[@nzamalik57]

Excellent no nonsense work by this young man.. God bless him..

[@williamoxner]

It was nice to see him do his profession.. He doesn't waste very many steps while doing his job.. Thanks for posting this video..

[@athollmcnicoll256]

Chicago Pneumatic Tools I used to work for here in Aberdeen Scotland, making all kinds of air wrenches and air guns so when you picked his one up and looked at it, wow did it bring back memories as we used to pack them babies 200 per pallet. Cheers John.

[@scottg391]

5 stars for tire guy. Especially with Johnny breathing down his neck. Good vid .

[@stevefavela9179]

Damn you blew up this year from 30k to almost 80k in less than a year ,good job

[@KB-gs8zi]

Sir JBG !!! GOOOOOD Video !!!! Goes to show what the drivers have to put up with on the road !!! Not always glamorous driving !!!! KEEP IT SAFE !!!

[@phenomenalcarpetcarellc6212]

I happy you filmed it. But I would have been so annoyed if I was him having someone watch me lol. Great video. He handled it well.

[@davor020774]

Ey

[@bigredc222]

It used to annoy me just being watched, I wouldn't have done well in this world of everyone filming everything, I'm glad I'm retired.

[@catsbyondrepair]

I always put the landing gear down for drives and pull out from under the trailer to protect the tire guy less weight on the jack

[@genecoppedge5972]

Tire man is a classy dude, he uses a torque wrench and a safety Jack stand. So much for the truck driver doing his daily walk around according to your CDL regulations. You didn’t know you had all those loose lug nuts.

[@lylegoodtogoinyiylowman6393]

T FF FF you

[@avail1.]

Always good to see someone work, that like their job; and came out to help. Gal.6:10.

[@jonsnell4751]

Reminds me of 50 years ago when I was a tyre fitter but we used split rim wheels and a cage!

[@bernb3538]

I had a blow out on the same tire sunday morning! I waited 5 hours for the repair...Take care JBG

[@abernathykaleb]

Great job to the tire guy but hate when customers gotta follow you around let me do my job and leave me the hell alone

[@billalbion]

Good to see a truck driver not afraid to get his hands dirty.

[@SteelyPaw]

That guy really changed that tire fast. I could think of a few more ways to automate his work truck. Fun video

[@foxiedogitchypaws7141]

Thank you for driving 5 years ago! 🐶🐶

[@mattrinaldi107]

Awesome video JBG. It's a good thing you noticed the flat tire before you got on the highway and something bad happened I watch your videos everyday big fan

[@patbarrett9263]

gee what a difference the right tools make!!!!!

[@andrewmeredith2019]

I have been watching your videos for the last 2 years and with watching them you really have expired me of going to get my AZ I actually go for my AZ in a couple of weeks up here in Canada

[@harlandgiles8612]

Great video johnny!problems on the road can be readily fixed😁

[@waylonwolfe627]

Better watch it John Larry is catching up with you on viewers be safe on your travels John

[@eadiesel326]

I do this same job, future advice, next time drop the trailer, I personally won’t even touch a tractor tire unless they disconnect for me when I ask. That can be a lot of weight on the jack. Secondly, we don’t like when drivers watch our every movement, and especially touch our stuff like you just freely helped yourself to.

[@timwhite8878]

Very hard working man.good job

[@Freefarmer533]

Tire guy totally made a fool of driver for loose lug nuts, good on him for doing it too.

[@samrugtiv5563]

good job, that's the way you do it, torque the wheels. time to cut some highway .thank you john. sam

[@AlA-ok5jh]

Guys who hardly do any physical work are the one's who get sore backs later in life. This guy's back will be fine as long as he moves properly. Works smart. Eats right & gets 7-8 hrs rest/sleep to re coop. He has his. 10 yrs in on the job so I guess he gets the day shift. Starting out guys get the night shift. Imagine changing tires in minus 25 or heavy rains or at night.

[@jw4786]

Great video john,thx for posting! That guy def knew what he was doing

[@themotorcycleguy5980]

Thinking about starting my own mobile tire repair business. I can change a tire pretty dang quick and enjoy doing it too.

[@lenecarrera4566]

If you haven’t done it yet . I suggest you do .

[@jakesampson8281]

I have more difficulty changing a bike flat than this man had taking the tire off the rim...

[@elicerk5116]

Thanks for the video JBG that was very interesting be safe out there my friend happy Monday.

[@samarthchundawat4342]

The Video Is Realy Very Good.

[@mrbond9882]

Yeah this guy is legit. One time I needed a tire changed and the guy showed up with his hands basically. Took 2 hours. I still tipped him a 20 I was on the clock I didn't mind 😂

[@andrewcomments5812]

Looks like he did a great job! Quick too!

[@25mfd]

This dude did a nice quick job (… but he's been doing it for 10 years so no surprise he did a nice quick job...) Gotta be a BEAR in the winter with a parking lot full of snow.

[@imtimrich]

That guy did a great job and fast..

[@BobsGT235]

You mean to tell me that he got no tip???

[@imtimrich]

You have no idea if he got on or not, and that's not the point..

[@BobsGT235]

Someone who did a fast outstanding job, then yes, they deserve a tip. But I'm sure John's boss is to cheap to cover the tip. So I don't blame John.

[@juanpineda7734]

T Rich na his to slow I can do it half the time & I’m twice his age

[@25mfd]

+Juan Pineda changing tires "fast" is for NASCAR. if given the choice i'd take having it done correct and methodical over FAST and wondering if he did it right.

[@unclejoe5541]

I would've asked him to check all the other lugs before he put the torque wrench away, but maybe you did after you stopped the clip. I drove around with a busted wheel stud on my Mack and didn't know it for Lord knows how long. Peace.

[@lkgguy7899]

I'm sure that repairman was glad you were on nice dry pavement instead of mud!

[@jayjohnson7706]

That man is fast.

He’s not “10 year “ fast lol

Great Video JBG and a good guy at his job. Keep safe. Camillus.👍👍

[@yhnbgt365]

At my first job at Hughes Aircraft in LA we had a delivery of test equipment in cabinets, about 1000 pounds each. While the truck was backing up to the loading dock I heard some unusual creaking from the back wheel. Then I noticed there were several nuts missing and the wheel was cracked about 1/3 the way around. A few more miles on the freeway and the wheel would have collapsed, possibly causing a major accident on the freeway. After unloading the driver came into the office and called his dispatcher for assistance and got it fixed. That was on Halloween of 1972, we delivered the equipment to the Navy on April Fool's day of 1974. True story.

[@Qfldnrg]

Great video of a professional at work. Thanks for zooming in on the tools. Would have liked to have had a close up of the torque wrench. Would have liked to have seen all the other lug nuts on all wheel sets on the tractor and trailer checked. You guys take on a lot of risk and responsibility for what you’re paid. Much respect!

[@dannyelrod9607]

wonders why iv just got this as a notification when i'm not subscribed

[@mdsuavejr]

We want to see him do his job. Don't disturb him please.

[@rickjohnson1632]

Nice tool truck . He's using that big torque wrench so he doesn't warp p the rim and for liability.

[@roversnolan1]

Any professional fitter would be using the torque wrench.

[@rickjohnson1632]

@@roversnolan1 I drove CDL trucks on and off for 30 years. On road / off road . Semi / six wheelers , straight trucks . In all my years of having flats changed I never saw a torque wrench put to tire EVER. I’ve been in more than my share of big truck tire and repair shops in my life lol. Torque wrench’s came to be when everyone started running aluminum rims. It’s the only reason they use use torque wrench’s on rims actually. These young mechanics use torque wrench’s because they were trained to do it. That’s fine, I understand completely. But what I’m telling you is in 30 years of driving CDL trucks I NEVER saw a torque wrench used on a flat , on the side of the road or in a tire shop and trust me when I tell you , I’ve had more than a few flats on CDL vehicles

[@MRAHALL]

@@rickjohnson1632 they've been around well before aluminum rims were used. And most tire shops Ive been to do not use a torque wrench, which they should be. It isn't just to prevent damaging the rim, it's to make sure the lug nut is providing proper clamping force against the rim. If you hammer down with an impact and stretch those threads, you would provide less clamping force than if you tightened them by hand with the lug wrench..... And it's a real pain in the ass when you're out replacing wheel studs in single digits and chasing your hard hat in the wind because the last guy thought you cranked them til they stopped with a 1" impact.

[@jctransportllc.4879]

So Florida it's not for you john.you would melt here lol. High humidity and heat. Great video drive save.

[@mikelatta484]

I grew up in my Dad's tire shop. That old boy has done that almost as many times as I have. I notice you didn't show him seating the bead. Was lighter fluid involved? I kid! I kid.

[@ericwickman7423]

Nice job on triple checking the lug torque. Not just drive them on with air and call it good.🤞

[@haschengrubex7131]

you have no boundaries dont touch another mans equipment ever always ask

[@Kamofy]

By that logic neither does the fuel/tire jockey. Maybe he should ask how and where I want my rig to be jacked as well as provide the sticker of his so called new tire and torque it down in a cross pattern instead of his shitty technique.

[@danpulley9488]

@@Kamofy tire was used driver knew it, dispatcher knew it.

[@Kamofy]

Dan Pulley then why did driver ask if it was a recap?

[@ShootLuckGaming]

Kamofy He calked the tire guy to fix a flat. By that question you automatically give permission to touch your truck

[@jackcaldwell485]

In my opinion every truck should carry one and the driver should check at least once a week (torque wrench)

did he air up the tire. didnt see that for some reason

Interesting.. he gets paid hourly so really has no motivation to complete this as quickly as he does. Kudos.

I'd pull out to make it easier. But then again I've been fixing trucks 47 years

[@Cxnyers.Gaming]

I know he didn’t use the air cage he has sitting in his truck that’s why you cut it out, and he torqued the tire while it was still in the air. Then he asked if you wanted the valve changed ALWAYS change the valve

[@indomablerebelde]

this guy had the weldernator and air compressor nice ,,

[@catsbyondrepair]

Keep a torque wrench in your truck checking the lugs should be part of your pretrip that and the pitman arm.

[@24juan68]

That’s actually a cool idea thank you for the suggestion but what is the pit arm?

[@catsbyondrepair]

JBG TRAVELS it's the arm coming off the steering box that steers the truck if it comes off you are screwed. Learnt this the hard way was in the icu for ten days after my pitman arm come off.
