Faunsdale, AL | When you go to seat the beads, place the wheel with the dish down or if it's a dayton wheel, put it on a 2x4 block so the rim is held tight against the bottom bead of the tire and all the gap is at the top. That way the air you blow in with a bead cheata can't just go through and out the bottom (it cannot lift the steel rim, only move the tire sidewall) Same process with ether.
Tire soap works on everything, (rear tractor, wheel loader, scraper, grader tires etc, but it's messy and you have to have a bucket of it sitting in the shop. Still, better than the alternative with those bigger tires. Also a bucket of it should be alot cheaper than a bead cheata and should last a long time. But really you need both! | |
