In this video I show how you can add fluid to your tires without a pump as well as how to use a small pump to speed things up even more. I used windshield washer fluid as it is cheap does not corrode the rim and does not freeze until -20 deg. You add ballast to your tires to offset front end loader weight also to provide better stability on hills and rough terrain

I changed the traction-less turf tires on my garden tractor to ATV tires and added washer fluid to them using this method. To speed it up a little, I stood on the top of the tire to force out the air quicker. It took 6 gallons a tire and about an hour. Tires are 20x10-8. HUGE improvement in traction. Thanks for showing me the easiest way to do it.

Out of all the videos I've watched your video helped me the most. Today I added 62 gallons of windshield washer fluid to the rear tires on my Kubota L2501. I used a 1/2" air hose with a 1 gpm transfer pump. It went great. The hose fit perfectly onto valve stem of my tires and onto both sides of the pump. I did have to use hose clamps to stop the drips but it went really well. I stopped the pump every so often to remove the hose from the valve stem to let out the built up air pressure from the tire. Thank you for your video.

Thanks for the video. Very helpful. Loaded the tire on my MF GC1705, the tempreture was mid 30' and the sidewalls were pretty stiff and with no back hoe for weight they didnt want to collapse and push the air out. I used a ratchet strap to help force the air out. Found that sped the process up quite a bit.

Looks good, hadn't thought of doing it that way. I filled my BX2200 rears by taking one off and laying it down, I then took the bucket and broke the bead loose from the wheel and just poured the fluid around the rim into the tire. Aired it back up and reinstalled it, although it was heavy getting the bolt holes lined back up. I like your way, no wrestling an almost 100 Lb tire and wheel around.

I found an old tractor book, in this book they show how to load your tractors tires. The picture shows a 55 gal drum elevated on a stand with a hose running to the tire stem. All done by gravity, the same way you did yours. The book is dated in the late 1950s they used sodium chloride, which rotted out the steel wheels as many farms know.

Great video! Just be mindful when using a tire gauge because I ruined one even with the valve stem at the top. It may be wise to make it so that the fluid level is just below the valve stem and purge with air before checking tire pressures. That's just me overthinking though. Forgive me if I missed this being explained in the video. Once again, great video and technique! It helps save a little money for us DIY'ers!

Below a person asked the question of whether the alcohol and water base windshield wash would compromise the rim/rubber tire. It will have an effect on both your rim and tire. If you are simply trying to save a few bucks on this project, think of what a replacement rim/tire cost, and how much you had to fork out for this tractor to start with. Also, research how full these tires should be, I agree with the other comment about not overfilling them because of the increased chance of a blowout. I really appreciate the method used, very helpful.

We've had tractors for decades and I have never heard about water in tires... in fact, when I work on flats or replace tires, I normally make sure that the inside of the rim is pretty dry to avoid rust.

I hear ya bud. I'd imagine if your rim is not painted inside this could speed up rust. But otherwise its non corrosive so I think it would have a hard time eating through paint.

I found a drip system hose fits into my valve. Then used a garden hose to drip adapter to fill with water. That goes pretty fast. Added antifreeze later. If you put the valve at about the 10 o'clock position, it will overflow at the 2/3rds point so you know when you have enough liquid.

How many gallon contains per back tire for the BX23S? Front one done too? I assume with much less fluid. Please advise. Thank you. Great video.

good stuff I been wanting to add ballast to my tractor but I'm on the fence whether or not to do it. the owners manual says not to if you have a backhoe installed. I may do it anyway since lately the backhoe is off quite a bit more than its on. not sure if you are already a member but there is a group on facebook called kubota tractor and equipment that may interest you. if you have not already check it out. keep paying it forward brother peace love and respect!

About to buy the BX23S and will be using 70% for mowing a really nice lawn and 30% for clearing woods. I will remove the BH and FEL for mowing as I want to minimize compaction of my soil. In your experience how well does this thing mow and once you added the ballast to the tires did you notice it was harder on the lawn. I am a bit of a lawn nut and given this will be my first time using anything other than a small lawn riding mower, I have no idea what to expect. Any thoughts is appreciated. I will be getting the turf tires as well.

Congrats on the future purchase! It is an extremely handy tool and you will be glad to have it! Based on what I've noticed I wouldn't say the 200lbs of ballast affects the ground psi enough to make a difference. But is huge in the way of stability! From research I've done a small tractor like this does not exert much more psi on the ground then a walking males footprint. Please hit the subscribe button and check out my other videos I've got a few up of the BX!

I like the idea. However, I have R4 tires with stiff side walls. Trying the vacuum didn't work as I lost the bead seal. Siphon and gravity did work, but I would ultimately lose the seal and the fluid would leak out faster than I could replace it. I then put a comealong around the tire to maintain the seal , this worked. I ultimately bought a $10 fountain pump at tractor supply to speed up the process. I was glad I was using cheap wiper fluid rather than messy. hard to find and expensive beet juice. We'll see if it rusts.

I also lost the bead on my JD 5065E adding ballast. Had to use the fabric mesh 3 inch tie down on the center to reseat the bead and that blow pretty much a day. My stuborness in keeping the tires on the tractor didn't help speed things up. I was concerned that i couldn't handle the 5 foot tires off the tractor by myself. And filling those monster tires was like watching quicksand in a swamped blow away one grain at a time. And why again is quicksand called quicksand?

I tried this process today on my John Deere 1025R. I was looking for a process that used minimal tools, and this is by far the least. 1/4" plastic hose, tool to remove the valve stem, and a jack are all that's needed. Having said that, it is a slow process. I had to raise/lower the tractor probably 10-20 times for each tire, and it probably took ~30-60 minutes/tire. My tires are only 1 year old and didn't flex as much as Tyler's tires did when he pushed on them, so that may be the difference. Regardless, I didn't have to buy additional stuff that I'd never use again, so it was worth it to me.
