Cheap dish soap around the bead is your best friend. And won’t hurt the tire like oil will
@TomBean-qf6zv Жыл бұрын
For future tire dismounting/mounting adventure try a heavy mixture of water and dish soap (heavy on the dish soap) around tire bead, makes it a lot easier. Been there, done that, a bunch.

Bought one identical to it about 3 years ago before HF carried them.. mine is made from the same chinesium though. Have probably changed a dozen tires with it from 18.4x42” down to 15” auger tires. Works every time, no more using the backhoe bucket or pallet forks to try and tear the bead off of the rim.

@tbirdracefan Жыл бұрын
That little toy has eluded my radar. Might have to keep that in mind for future problems. I have become aware of the importance of studying the profile of a rim before putting a tire on. Knowing what way to press on the tire to get it to seat when putting air in is a game changer in itself.

You'll find it works just fine with a standard 1/2 drive ratchet.. 8.8 is next to the lowest grade metric bolt, there are also 10.9 and 12.9. 10.9 is roughly equivalent to a Grade 8 SAE bolt.. and a squirt bottle of water with dish soap helps a lot breaking them down...

I bought one of those tools last year, but I got mine online (not from Harbor Freight). I bought the one I did because it was designed to be used with an electric or air ratchet, which is nice. They certainly are a great tool and save a lot of work.

Use an air ratchet but DO NOT use an impact. Keep the threads oiled. I’ve used mine a lot and haven’t broke it yet.

1 3/16 inches is only about half a percent bigger than 30mm, which is probably the "official" size of that bolt head, though harbor freight chinesium isn't known for its precision ;)

Spent all morning trying to break down a 38 inch tire for my John Deere A. Gave in and at lunch time hit google to see how others are doing it. Found this video and after watching it went right down to Harbert Freight and bought one. Wasn't 10 minutes and I had both sides broke down. Playing around with old farm tractors as I do that's the best 100 dollars I've spent in a long time.

To the most cynical, driest sense of humor on a farming channel. Great video. Harbor Freight used to be the tool store one would avoid and laugh at people who bought there. Now? It is a delight to go there and spend some time with my crafty woman as we drool over all the tools we really don't need but want all the more.

I bought an entire 3/4 drive socket wrench set with ratchet and breaker for the same price as just a ratchet and single socket alone would have been from Blackhawk, to say nothing of more expensive brands. I did have one socket that I didn't have in the kit I needed I had to buy, but that's okay... still cheaper and I have every size I pretty much need now.

So. That converts to a 30mm. Your tire iron technique to get the rim the rest of the way out is wrong(your using the wrong end of the tool). You also need to be mindful of the drop point of the rim.
