New Tires For The Backhoe

putting 4 new tires on the backhoe

[@waynepickhardt4975]

This is an excellent video demonstrating the proper use of tire spoons. The vice grip idea is something I've never thought of, but it makes perfect sense. This job was done efficiently with no unnecessary moves. Great job!

[@GreggFesto]

Hey Boe, I been trying to change the tire on my tractor and came across your video. That kick on the tire when prying over the lip was a real gem of a trick. Got the tube changed out and back in action fast AF. Thank you for a great video.

[@FourthWayRanch]

Always try and get the opposite side in the middle of the rim

[@willdigg1448]

Well I am officially impressed with that operation. The only thing I seemed to be lacking is that hydraulic arm helper there. It's amazing how much easier it becomes when you have the right tools available. Good Job!!

[@timhill473]

I can tell by watching your tire guy he's had a lot of practice working with large tires, He's real good

[@isaacalvarez9939]

you still need more practice you couldn't even air up the back tire you don't use Murphy's soap on it

[@AtomicMama42]

yes you do!!!! MORE is better! it helps cause a vacuum if placed on the edge of the front flange, so when you seat the bead, the bead will push the Murphy out and not have any extra on the inside crown, which could cause wheel slippage if not applied right!! I do that every time, and it never fails, and i have never had one OTR come back!! he just lacks the knowledge on how to utilize that boom as he should have placed the boom on the top of the tire, then bar on the last part of the rear bead onto the front flange!! hes a classic lazy tire guy with no work ethic!!! do not do what this man does, so many safety codes he broke as well!!!!

[@FixItStupid]

Well I don't know if I'd say lazy OK Thank's Can You Post A Video ? I Check Your Ch Did See Anything But A Party But You Make GOOD Points Thank You !

[@mikekey686]

@@AtomicMama42 HAHA yall are hilarious.....learn to do it right and without the use of a crane and then you will really be doing something. I do large ag tires literally every single day and have never used a crane. I learned to fix and replace tires starting at 5 years old with my grandfather and have been doing it ever since and have never used a crane or anything else to assist in lifting the tire. There are multiple better ways to do it. Also....the murphys does not create any sort of vacuum....I don't know what you think that term means but it doesn't apply here that's for sure. This guy could have done it a whole lot better and probably not used any murphys if he had the proper cheetah tank that's made for this.

[@VCCOMM]

@@AtomicMama42 fuck off . you really know your shit huh lol . go get another tatt

[@regsparkes6507]

God bless that guy's back. Man oh man, this must be a helluva job on a hot humid day ! This is the way to go Chris,...all new rubber on four corners.

[@geraldqualls1369]

I bet your pocket book is a lot lighter now? You're tire guy is the best I've seen in a long time. He was worth every penny good job!!!!

[@fox13z400]

He's an efficent worker, no talk and BS, just came and got the job done. I like that, plus I learned some things from this video.

[@adibakmal4437]

what gepun

[@AtomicMama42]

no he was not, he failed!!! the first thing he did wrong when trying to get the back bead on the front flange was he should have used the Boom and pushed up on the top of the tire while baring on the last of the bead!! plus more Murphys would have helped!! all in all, very poor work!!

[@tylerwitty6361]

+Katie Speed you have never changed a tire in your life ... have a seat...

[@billiecopley4074]

Craigslist and212 👌 mi pi ml op

[@1963Franksworld]

Yep changed many tires and my share of rusted rims. This guy did a good job for being in the field. I enjoy watching someone else doing a job I have struggle with. DEFINATELY LEARNED A LITLE MORE, ESPECIALLY REMOVING THE BACK BEAD OVER THE FRONT OF THE RIM

[@mog5858]

your tire guy made that look easy. he dose good work very well thought out and work smart.

[@johng6851]

Those old tires looked good still

Good to see a competent professional at work, good job well done : )

[@johnm.evangelis693]

I am sure this guy does not go to the gym, because he takes all his frustration out on the tires plus a great workout!!!!

[@sisutrucks]

dont think this is the bloke you ask to go outside with lol :D

[@AttitudeAdjuster]

It's amazing how tires change the look of a machine from old to ready for work, it will be interesting to here how you feel about her push now with the new tires? I guess rubber getting hard is something we have over such a long time you just get used to tire spin instead of tire bite. Thanks for sharing Matey, Stay safe well and Blessed

[@Bama1963]

That's some back breaking work, that fellow knows what he's doing.

[@TheRealSuperK]

Loved the Vise Grip hack, gonna use it for sure!

[@kasnitch]

thanks for filming this Chris . most people don't get to see these work skills . slick deal with the visegrips .

[@onewhitestone]

Dang, that boy is impressive. I used to work for a tire shop in my younger days. We always hated those split rims, this guy puts these on without a machine. Don't want to wrestle with him.

[@swampen85]

Headly Lemar , thats not split rims...

[@sharkamov]

Reminds me of being 16, - at the time my father owned an auto repairshop (for all kinds of vehicles), and one of my jobs was doing exactly this! - And, as with almost anything, it can quickly be learned, and in point of fact - it's not a big deal. - Still and all, watching someone doing with ease somthing yourself have never done, might seem both facinating and 'intimidating' - until you got the skillset under your own skin! . . . . . . . . ;-)

[@MrBill-mq7ti]

And I struggled with my lawnmower tires. Impressive work.

[@saintpo]

My back started hurting I had to quit watching..🥵

[@johncollins8304]

He might not be able to do them. The smaller the harder. So the corollary means he was doing easy tyres.

[@jasonmullin8676]

I'm a Goodyear OTR tech. This guy is on par with time. It's really not as hard as it looks, especially with the boom truck. I always use soap as a last resort, get 19L 24s to take air all day with a cheetah tank.

[@Vrastaflame]

jason Mullin haha try using a cheetah with a galaxy tire.....not happening

[@llanteros503]

great job, I usually remove the tires from the backhoe (front tires) I'll try to use this technic sometime in the near future

[@geraldswain3259]

Brings back memories, definitely a young man's game!,,.

[@lKanyoNl]

I work in commercial tires and you are right if I would have started when I was 21 or younger it would have been a lot easier on the body lol

[@gavinboudreau6354]

Good tire man is worth his weight in gold

[@mikekey686]

That is true however this guy is not it.

[@janvandenbos7085]

Looking good for new tyres for the Backhoe, repacking a cylinder, and she can do many hours work for you Chris ✌👌 Yellow and black paint job and she is good as new 😊

[@numptyjames1]

love watching a skilled man working

[@teamidris]

Flipping heck John Deer, put a decent well into the rear wheels. That lad knew what he was doing and he was still struggling!

[@gizmogyro2]

Good video Chris. The tire guy makes it look easy, but as anyone who as ever done this knows its not as easy as he makes it look.

[@guntherflume7129]

I’m impressed he never looked at his cell phone !

[@Kt-ro2fm]

Good man at his job nothing worse than having someone standing watching you while you work bet if he wasn't there he would have used fuel to pop up them tyres !! 💥💥💥

[@JamesMcCutcheon]

I remember helping people at our Country store, change tires with inner tubes, a hammer, and a crowbar, burning tube patches and glue too. Changing a car tire with a new tube was a bummer and expensive.

[@cathiwim]

What ever you had to pay him, he EARNED! Ive done that on a bicycle, but kudos tohim fo doing it on a backhoe!

[@bettyherbert9399]

Vise grips save lives no way to get the tire on without them and good bar work I am the tire man at my shop. 4 years of experience and from what I see you have some too

[@hotrodhog2170]

It was more fun using starting fluid to pop the beads on big tires! Ahh the good ol' days of yesteryear!

[@errickmackey8983]

Watch out for them quiet guys, they can become grizzle bears when angry.😳😁

[@AM-dn4lk]

The right tool and the right know how always works. Great job.

[@stevehughes1250]

I learned something today. So that makes it a good day.

[@chamorroguam3776]

I’ve been doing tires for a long time but I still watch and learn from others I was taught that someone does something some way that might make it easier

[@earlsmithson4749]

Like you Chris, this young man knows how to use his equipment to get the job done.

[@davidsonlankford1168]

Never try to beat a man at his own trade. This guy knows what he is doing.

[@lancewilson3785]

You are good but that is like on Bob villa everything goes just right. I have never changed a tractor tire that had no rust in it and broke off the bead even close to that easy. I did a front tire that same size 2days ago and had to use a hydraulic bead breaker on it on both sides. Then clean the rim with a grinder for about 30 min. That's the real world tire fixes.

[@Greg-xq5ux]

I've never met a tireman that I didn't like.

[@NotJustaTool]

I always thought a landscaper wanted bald tires. At least low profile threads. Now some of those customers are going to be pissed at the marks left on their lawn and fields. I guess the trade off is you don't get yourself stuck on that hill or in that MUD. Nice JOB. Made it look easy.

[@adamrichardson6918]

I'm the guy who never is too big on safety.....flipflops and welding....but I think I'd have a hard hat on at 7:32. This guy makes this look easy would love to see a novice try this.....

[@billmoran3812]

I like the hook on the crane. Beats wrestling with heavy tires. I still prefer the method of using starting ether to seal the bead. A good dose indeed the wheel and light with a torch the tire will jump right in place.

[@judsonclayto7813]

i like that tool that pops the tire off... a lot easier than using a sawzall to make a fire ring...

[@judsonclayto7813]

those pry bars are nice too... i bent a crowbar once... wasn't long enough and i was too cheap to go buy two longer ones to use for a few minutes... should have just borrowed somebody's

[@tnoel374]

That was amazing work wow.

You cant beat a pro at his craft! Very nice job!!

[@jamesdiehl8690]

The right tool for the job!

[@jamesatkins3992]

Nothing like a brand new pair of shoes😁

[@bluebird5100]

What a job. I hope he is getting paid good. Its one thing to change 1 set of tires, but to do it all day every day several times a day on many different machines for years and years... Takes a special person or some high wages to want to do it.

[@matt420740]

The more you do something like this, the better you get at it. And over time you acquire the proper tools and equipment to go along with the experience.

[@tbirdracefan]

I need to change the back tires on my Case 570. Was planning on blocking up the back end of the tractor and pulling the wheels and trailer to the tire shop. A mobile guy would certainly save some grief.

[@57fitter]

Much harder to do not mounted on tractor

[@lonebear4334]

Depends what you are willing to spend, my company charges 105 an hour to come to you and change them, less than 105 to change all 4 of you bring to us lol and the hourly charge includes drive time to u and back home

[@andrewbrockhoff2976]

Thanks for sharing this. I have the same BH as you and fit my tyres the only way I know how - on the ground with much grunting and cursing!

[@RickJones-i2f]

And the tire lube that he is using is what i have to constantly clean off rims. It's sticky and slimey. It collects dirt and creates a crust on the rim that has to be cleaned off(if you are to PROPERLY install the tire).

[@robertstephens5163]

Thanx for posting this. Learned something.

[@DustinDoesStuff]

Me and my buddy had to break down and remount 4 30.5x32 R2 logging tires by hand. We had a 5 gallon bucket of that tire soap and did just what this guy did to re-seat the bead. You get about 95% of the soap back after the tire seats. cool thing is it's actually soap, you just wash your hands with water and your hands will never be cleaner.

[@nigelphillips9426]

Ive never seen anyone make such a big job of a tractor tyre

[@canvids1]

excellent video and this man knows how to change tires.

[@eliaronman2973]

[@michaelheller589]

Nice but dismount that wheel n it gets easier when it’s on flat ground. I think it being left on does help the bead seating going back ok.

[@danielhylton4675]

He sure made it look easy. lol

[@corydriver7634]

I’ve seen these guys in action several times growing up on a farm, one thing I have noticed....none of them are old. I’ve also seen them use locking pliers like that too, you’d think Vise Grip or some other tool manufacturer would have created a specialized tool for this job.

[@noelduarte4557]

They do but it's just an extra tools you'd have to get, it makes more sense to use vicegrips since they're a tool you'd normally have anyway

[@morgansword]

Slicker than snot on a doorknob, I was wondering if you were going to lodge a bar in one of the cylinders and let the backhoe do the the work

[@coggins63]

holy shit that guy earned his money today

[@1001ewaste]

Man that job must be fun when it's cold, wet and windy perhaps with some mud or snow thrown in for good measure.

[@arkansas1313]

1001ewaste... yep, as a buyer... 15-20 mph wind, it's raining 1/2" per hour, pulling the tire truck 1/2 mile through mud to and from the machine with a dozer...and oh, the lovely invoice arriving in the mail later, the good old days, glad they're behind me! Those men earn (and deserve) every dollar they get paid.

[@joshsimmons5750]

I hate changing them in the winter, tires are too stiff and you fight like hell to get them on and aired up

[@noelduarte4557]

Raining on the side of the freeway is my favorite

[@doughboy1966]

That hand deserves an adult beverage or 6 or 12 and a BBQ sammich after that. Like the use of the crane too. Work smart not hard.

[@skidmark7119]

this tire man is THE MAN!

[@Redtailedhawk99]

He sure makes that look easy.

[@jackcaldwell485]

damnnnn someone spent some money !

[@salimalhinai3034]

Good job ...How much does the tire cost

[@teamtj9032]

Ain't no doubt that boy has changed a tire or two before!

[@coggins63]

this guy knows what he's doing

[@eformance]

That rear tire looks like the love child of an Ag and Industrial tire.

[@keithbrettell2058]

I was sorta wonderin' the same thing, is it an Ag or Industrial tire?

[@MidGAOutdoor]

I too was curious. the fronts are industrial and the backs appear to be ag. I was curious as to why theyre mismatched,

[@letsdig18]

MidGAOutdoor yeah I didn't see the tread pattern prior to ordering them so it's a different matter.

[@joshreed7908]

hey chris I live down in Delaware and we have a case excavator and that frigging thing has no power so we went and tested a Volvo and now we have a Volvo and its the best excavator we owned thanks for the advice from the vids on volvo

[@sisutrucks]

as long as you dont do any heavy work with it i guess you will do fine with the volvo hehe.

[@kawscottyoung]

Heh, Thats pretty sweet. Didn't even have to unbolt th wheels from the beoiatch. Hope that dude trains some help. He's gonna be done for by years 40 or 45.

[@lonebear4334]

Done for by 40 or 45? Hell I started when I was 16, I just turned 48 last month, I can still do this shit all day every day, I might be a tick slower than I used to be but no where near done for, and these tires be small potatoes, judging but what I could see of that boom he does much larger, personally the largest loader tires I've changed are 45/65r45 largest haul truck 27.00r49, and not done for 😄👍

[@DieselEngineSean]

Looks like he's done that a time or two 😉

[@hfdzl]

No way I could stay as clean doing this job!

[@bobqwhite1267]

Man y'all need to get some diesel it makes everything so much easier for you 😉 Blessings

[@catdieselpower193]

them tires on there still had plenty of life left in them!!

[@clintymouse]

Just a helpful hint. Being that you're doing it on the machine, if you take a long enough 2x4 and place it against the tire and a contact point on the machine....you could just turn the wheel to break the inside bead. might be worth a try, next time

[@hvy1ton]

Makes me feel better you can't tell if they have tubes either.

[@OahuTito]

Great video, I missed what they set the front and rear tire pressure at?

[@geraldblackburn4883]

Ya, with know how and the right tools, not to say it is easy, but can be done.

[@axe609]

I Just spent the past three months looking for a used backhoe, and I am pretty sure you are only supposed to change one tire at a time and give it plenty of wear before you change another one.

[@shawnfox8002]

Never seen that soap slime stuff used but have used the tire blaster before

[@davidmorse8432]

Spray some hair spray in there then spark it off.

[@josegerardosanabrialainez2349]

What is the green liquid?? And the jelly????

[@deanbrown4512]

That man is good.

[@hfraat25]

Try using 2 wooden wedges either side of the front axle to stop it swinging about.

[@croexcavator]

great Job ✔✔✔👌👌👌

[@scottyrob9315]

if you place a 4x4 block under the axle vertical, it makes it a lot easier. figure out the right length you need to keep it up in the air, and it's not going up and down so much... I liked doing that, but it's just a suggestion...

[@matttutell7980]

Id give him a 5 out of ten. Next time use a motorcycle bar for the BackBeat of the 19.5 24. Use a ratchet strap instead of bead soap. You have some learning to do my friend but your ok.

HUMM ? Tire Goop .. I used a can of starting ETHER and a prayer ..Great Job . thanks

[@terrymoody7739]

Thomas R. Miller Your right, but he used the soap gue, and didn't have to pray! I used to change semi tires back in the seventies, remember the old split rims they called them! Many a man died or lost limbs changing them! once knew a man who was killed instantly, by the ring blowing off, and slamming him to crush him to the shop ceiling. another friend of mine lost his wrist from the explosion! Work safe, not dangerous. This man here is a professional, and got the job done. Hats off to him!

[@RRaucina]

@@terrymoody7739 Ether is safe if you use a burning rag on a stick. The "explosion" is really self limiting, but it makes you feel less anxiety

[@micheljansen85]

I'm guessing putting a wratchet strap on the tire forcing it to the rim wont work when first time inflating them onto the beadlock?

[@ryanwindsor8379]

man i'd probably get a couple more years out of those old tires from the looks of them

[@FourthWayRanch]

How much are tires these days?

Invest in a C Bar. Also try putting the vice grips at 1:00 and working clockwise Let the gravity work with you.
