@@TheRojo387 how? The tire doesn’t touch the valve stem?

[@boleslawkrzywousty7945]

When you get the chance can u post a follow up video showing us how to install a tire onto the rim using just your mind? This was helpful too.

2:15 Mr Bug stopped by, assessed, and approved this video.....

Lol

[@ericthompson2920]

Looks like the concept may work on smaller tires. With an assistant. I tried this with an aluminum Snap-On jack by myself on a 37" Super Swamper and was a no go. Steel jack is a must as mine kept lifting even with me standing on it.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

The strap should go u der the Jack. Making it one unit

[@daleb5967]

@@ericthompson2920 full agreement here. I also have a 383 Chevy powered cj7 on 42" swampers. We use high lifts on the trail if needed to do this. I just tried this today on my sbc with stock tires and it didn't fly. Jack just crunched up the rubber but didn't pull the bead off. Tried 6 times. Nota! That explains why I never seen anybody do this process in the off-road club or the association....

[@daleb5967]

I used two steel full size jacks . The Corvette Jack and the Sears jack.....

[@hybrid902000]

Great technique but I kinda lost it when the audience started clapping 😂😂😂

Huh?

[@Jonathan-jo2xu]

WTF?

[@Mik-mk8us]

It really works best When you break the outside beads first. Then the inside beads. Regards :. Longtime rider!

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Good tip

[@BRWfilms]

Thanks. Not sure if you needed to do it on both sides but I had a hard time sawsawzing the tire completely to split apart I only broke bead on one side but I think it would of been easier if I flipped it and did the other side

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

I used two pry tools

[@BRWfilms]

@@BroncosandPartsGarage I did as well. If I had to do it again it would be easier but over over all thanks for the video couldn't have done it with out it

[@OneLazyTrucker]

Often time these long straps have cuts and nicks in them and need to be replaced. If you have one that needs to be replaced or find one at a yard sale; you can cut it shorter and have a strap that is easier to work with on tires and such. Praying for your safe travels.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Great tip

[@willwilliams2944]

Great comment, because if someone is using a strap that is frayed or has a nick in it they are gonna find out the hard way. Also even brand new cheap straps should be avoided at all costs if possible, because the rim will do the job of fraying or nicking it pretty quickly in most cases and will pop on you pretty quickly. The handles on the smaller straps are also pretty inadequate, and can bend or even do the same thing as the rim cutting the strap. Yeah I found out the hard way, but I knew it was going to happen so I stayed well clear of it. Would have used a more robust strap because I had many, but couldn't get them to go through my rim. So I just used one until it busted and then like you said shortened it only using the good length that was left.

[@Dutch1951x]

Great video. How about one on rebuilding the tailgate, motor, tracks and weather stripping.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Just released last week

[@aigslmnop]

I'd an idea of having a tyre and rim on the ground under a car and putting screw jacks between to force the bead down I ran it past a mechanic he showed me the press in a workshop I'd also thought sawing through the tyre and reinforcing wire but apparently this can't work even in addition to pry bars you'll inevitably need one video on here drives over 2by4 placed over

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Whatever works

[@jimmyyounger618]

Ugh, dang it! I broke the bead and I could see it was off the rim with my own eyes. But when I let the pressure off the jack and unstrapped it, it reseated itself! The sidewall seems to have a ton of flex, so instead of peeling away around the rim, it just unseated at the pressure point of the jack head and slid back into place. I've had some that were easy peasy and others like these two off a trailer. The worst were ATV tires. After the better part of a day where I even tried to break the bead using the edge of the bucket on a front end loader, even bouncing the weight of a 60 hp diesel + tractor frame + the weight of the loader itself across the bead outside the edge of the wheel, I finally gave up and took them to a shop. It's a little exasperating to think about how much of my life I've wasted on the ones that needed their press. If I had a do-over and the shop space, I'd have just bought a good quality machine, primarily because I live in a rural area and the travel time plus fuel is an expense and chore in itself.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Sometimes a little more is needed. Great trail hack

[@erikawilson1154]

Thanks for that. You make it look easy

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

This is one of many ways to Unbead a tire without tools.

$60-$80 to just take them off? Where do you live at ? $20 & a 12 pack for 4 wheels is going rate around here plus I got a 5 gal bucket of old lead weights for molding sinkers. Providing Id mold some sinkers for the 2 guys there that fish. 👍🏻

[@jeffrowe1300]

What worked well in the old days,... a bumper jack.... and of course an old car that had real bumpers.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Agreed

[@ridemfast7625]

Do you think the jack stand pressure on the sidewall, squeezing the tire in a small area, damages the sidewall cords inside the tire? I need to replace all 4 cracked valve stem and reuse the tire? Also, do you think a 2 ton floor jack will work?

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Cannot hurt worse than a normal machine pressing them

[@ridemfast7625]

@@BroncosandPartsGarage I Took a 4 inch length of 1 x 2, cut a 45 degree angle on one side placing it against the rim, as close to the bead as possible, and curved the piece slightly to follow the contour of the rim. Then used a floor jack. Very little sidewall deforming and no pressure directly on the sidewall. Takes longer, but worth it for me.

[@FaithisKey792]

Can I use this method if I’m keeping the tires just getting rid of the rims.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Yes, but I wouldn’t. We are scrapping tires do no need to go easy on them

[@whitefox9]

If you waived your strap into the rim hole and around the shaft of the jack wheels and back through the rim hole and then lock the straps then you wouldn't need an assistant

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

We did. Was nice to have second set of hands though

[@jamiehires7067]

The applause was hilarious

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

First time using effects.

[@ukulady]

Followed it to the T but the tire refused to be removed. It’s like it’s cemented to the rim. I even had help. Should I just take it to a shop at this point? I’m broke af.

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Sorry to hear that. I’ve seen a glue type substance and I know that run flat tires are a nightmare to remove as well

[@Mavrick-5]

That’s a very good way to break the bead of a tire, another way you might like using a scissors jack and put the tire on the ground under a high enough or lifted up vehicle and place the jack on the tire and raise the jack to hold on to the vehicle chassis to create the force to push down the tire to break the bead

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Good suggestion. We just did one the other days with a2x10 and another truck. Drive onto the wood

[@douggibson2428]

I have a old 12" 4 wheeler tire fast refuse to give. Iv even jacked my 2500 truck up and placed a 2x4 piece of wood between the tire bead and frame and let my truck down on it

[@georgelstuart]

I tried that first with my Jeep Wrangler ... didn't work that's why I am here

[@scotthanson7888]

A hilift Jack with the base removed works excellent

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

DIdn't work for me. Tried several times, no luck. Bead is just too stuck

[@BroncosandPartsGarage]

Set it on the ground, put a 2 x 10 on the edge of the tire and drive your truck onto it

[@butterfinger1171]

Set tire flat under edge of vehicle jacking point,, place a short 2x6 on tire (not the wheel) set jack on 2x6 jack against jacking point on vehicle and start jacking much simpler technique

Now the hard work comes you didn't show how you got to get the tire off the rim you just did the easy part time for the breaker bars and a lot of muscle getting that complete tire off the rim you just broke the bead😊

If you don’t have ratchet straps and a floor jack you probably shouldn’t be trying to remove tires on your own.
