Old tire machine

This is an old machine that I bought at auction. It didn't work very good. I made some changes on it and it now works good on 15" and 16" tires but not so good on 14". I know I need more air and experience. Take a look.

I've done hundreds and hundreds of tires on a machine similar to that one. Brings back memories. Handy tool to have, but it's tough on alloy rims. See you in the next one.

[@garyhelms3467]

Thanks for taking the time to video this. This is the first time I have seen the insides of one of those machines. A little tinkering and it looks like you have a machine that will help you out around the place.

Takes me back to my first job at the Atlantic Richfield gas station in 1965. A bottle of root beer was 10 cents.

I just found a 1950's Bushman tire changing machine. I bought it and brought the beautiful disaster home. It did not come with a bubble balancer but two weeks later I was looking at sellers in Facebook market place and I saw a guy was cleaning out a shed. He had a beautiful bubble balance and he did not make me pay an arm and a leg. Now I am going to get may beautiful machine restored and working perfectly.

Just had to learn how to get along with that old machine every man should have one that does tire work thankyou for a nother great video

[@jayhiz3514]

I remember using one of those everyday at my first job. There sure can be a huge labor saver. Breaking down tires by hand can really take a lot of energy and time.

[@daleramage7389]

Just picked up one myself ,haven't tried it yet hope it's working ok .You are right alot easier with the machine then doing by hand how I normally do .Thanks for sharing. Picked mine up for 250 thought that wasn't bad .

Remember to always keep you hand on the top of the tire mounting bar when it is turning. It can and will fly off and knock your teeth out.

You got to like this guy! Great video!👍

[@morgansword]

You and me are pushing the numbers, I'm 72 and miss my old shop with the smell of grease. I would be in heaven on that scrap pile that you make home out of. We work like that tire machine... slow but steady. Learned a ton over the years but it don;t cut it walking on your arms (me) and at least you can walk but breathing Ican see comes hard. I carry me one of those little folding magnifier so to see what is wrote on a package. Just keep trying, no one should fault you for that

[@mjmcomputers]

I’ve been on the lookout for one of those. Mine is a manual tire changer from the 1940s. Works well just a lot of work.

[@donvoll2580]

Good day Yea doing by hand is getting harder. There was 1 place you said compressor needed a little more air,, I had to smile, because when I change tires I need alittle more too. You get it figured out Thanks

[@kswaynes7569]

Yup, a little tinkering and some practice, before long you'll be putting tires on and off just like the young bucks at the tire stores! When you and I were kids, most gas stations had one of these!

[@Bobby381666]

I just got a coast 20/20 tire machine was looking up videos didn't know I would find my older self on here.

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Great video

[@byronpool7003]

put some air motor oil in the inlet of your air supply port

[@oldfarmjunk101]

[@jordanwashington5071]

you got a great accent sir - what city where you born in? and what city did you grow up in? sincerely cool accent... :) thanks for a great video!

[@Farmall450]

Theyee handy when you need them

[@arturomasias2065]

Dónde puedo conseguir una desmontara de esas?

[@Jay_Hova420]

I'm looking into purchasing one that looks similar to this for my home garage.. coats classic 500 tire changer for $250 on just a little skeptical because I cant find any videos or info the model..

[@timothyhart7173]

Richard I think you can replace the bad pieces with air brake quick release valves, they aren't that expensive you might even have a couple there on an old semi trailer TJ

[@oldfarmjunk101]

I will check in to it

[@johnmays2798]

@@oldfarmjunk101 those things are called mufflers. They are supposed to be a 1 way valve. They are to let the air back out like what you did with the hose. Great idea by the way. I am having the same issue with my tire machine. Leaking air all the time. I assume those mufflers are bad. Thanks for the video.

[@meliquiarperez7308]

Celo agradecería mucho

[@Ellenslife851]

Would love ta see the tractor in background in front of it with hub caps

[@oldfarmjunk101]

I will see what I can do

[@Ellenslife851]

OK cool thanks just was curious what it was I think it may be a simplicity landlord or something like that but curiosity has me wondering that would be my guess

[@oldfarmjunk101]

It is a Yeoman 726 with a like new replacement 9hp engine. I have not tried to get it running.

[@Ellenslife851]

oldfarmjunk101 Those are pretty neat tractors

[@PastPreserver]

Cool 👍:)

[@bluegrallis]

Dang, my tire changer is ALL manual. No air power hooks up to it :(

[@jordanwashington5071]

btw - how much did you pay for it at the auction - i see one that's broken on craigslist - not sure what I should offer.......

[@daleramage7389]

Tire machine I bought isn't doing anything wondering if my compressor is to small what size of compressor are you using can you let me know thanks Dale

[@oldfarmjunk101]

The old compressor does 175psi and enough volume with that big tank. the tire changer would not work on my 125psi compressor

[@60EFFIE]

Prolly got that thing for about nothing too!

[@cushman11firefighter18]

Got any old inner tubes you don't want

[@davidhoover8877]

[@alexlazos6445]

You have no idea wtf your doing 💀😂

[@358trucking]

This country was built by people who didn’t know what they were doing! They figure it out as they go! He succeeded in what he wanted to accomplish and I bet this old man who “doesn’t know WTF he is doing” probably has more money in the bank than you’ll ever have! You need to move out of Moms basement! AS$HOLE!
