[@Farmscrap1183]

tubes and antifreeze mix is what everybody does here where im at hope you get it fixed

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Yes sir. So far so it it's sealing up. Fingers crossed

[@oakiewoodsman]

Glad your cup holder stayed put!

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Mr Joe so far its hanging in there good

[@toddcaskey9984]

Morning , nice talking with ya yesterday.

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Mr Mr Todd. It was a good chat. We will do it again

[@joepeppers1920]

I'm looking forward to see if the increase in pressure helps.... I remember when I was just a lil sprout my grandad always told me to "blow a lil air in it to clear out the stem" before checking the pressure on filled tractor tires...(he meant to use the air chuck and add a split second's worth of air to the tire) I don't know what was in those tires, but it'd gum up a tire gauge first time, every time.

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Hi Joe. I hope it works too. I will do some more updates on it as time goes on. That's not a bad idea about blowing some air threw it. I think some of this was residual that was up in the valve stem. This stuff gets very tacky.

Morning Mike!

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Good Morning. Watching your video from yesterday now. Sorry im late was busy. Jason did great on that control valve on the tractor. That thing had some slop in it.

[@lorettaandjasonoffgrid]

@TheRustyGarageandHomestead all good my friend! We've been super busy too.

[@faithfulfarmadventures]

Yeah that would be annoying to have the rim guard leaking out

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

It is. Hopefully this takes care of it

[@OpenAirAdventure]

Hey Mike. Pain in the butt. We'll see what happens in the next video.

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Fingers crossed Mr Kenny

[@oakiewoodsman]

Hahahaha anti seize!

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

lol i love that stuff

[@faithfulfarmadventures]

😂

[@brandonhoad9033]

TUBES!!! I don't understand companies refusal to use tubes anymore. Big tractor or small. 30psi?! Be ready to be a bobblehead

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

Mr Brandon Tubes would be wonderful and i wouldn't be dealing with this mess. I agree that 10psi is going to make it a lot rougher of a ride. I'm just tired of seeing all the expensive rim guard leaking and making a mess in the shop.

[@musicgroopie1]

I've seen too many KZbinrs with rim guard blowouts. I'm gonna stick with wheel weights and counter balance.

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

@musicgroopie1 probably be alot cheaper

[@musicgroopie1]

@@TheRustyGarageandHomesteadIt looks like your dealer installed metal valves which is what rim guard recommends. Most the blow outs I've seen were rubber valves.

[@TheRustyGarageandHomestead]

@musicgroopie1 i was glad to see the metal valve stems
