Manual Tire changer Big Four from Mainville OH. Everything a harbor freight changer wants to be!
I picked up a 60's or 70's manual tire changer. Model 90-208 Its perfect for me. Can'd do plastic wheels . Polished wheels need a protector. My experience with balancing is that most imbalance is in the wheel so leave weights in place. In the video I show a 10 year old Nexex Roadian tire that exploded while driving. I misread the date code. I believe a 1214 code means 12th WEEK of 2014 so its a March tire and is 10-1/2 years old. While under the truck the edge of the tire was relatively near the exhaust pipe. There is a heat shield in place but the truck has nearly 400,000 miles so that may be a factor as well as age.

    You can get grease into that bearing. My spindes had no zerks or vents they now have zirks and even though they have seals on the bearing they will take grease under pressure. My advice to you is block off the vent and it will take between 60 and 70 pumps depending on the grease gun. They are banking on people to think you should not force grease into the bearing. They should only have seals on the outsides and no seals on the insides. They make bearing like that. If you take out the bearings and remove one side of the seals that way you wont have to buy new spindles.

Just because you can modify them and force grease into them doesn't change the fact. It's like the long drawn out discussion about light truck universal joints (and other chassis parts) while there are those out there that prefer greasable units, sealed units work better for most because the greasable ones simple don't get serviced frequently enough.

    The grease will get in the bearing even though it has a "seal". Been proven.

      Yup, and get out. I have a different piece of equipment with now dry "sealed". bearings

    do you grease your trailor bearings. how about your truck.

      I would prefer to grease all bearings. However, considering universal joints, the fact that feasible ones get beglected and sealed ones tend to last longer as a result.

    You should contact a luthier about the sound board. 60+ year old Sitka spruce would be great for acoustic guitars

      I'm not sure which wood is which. I kept some frim the cabinet. Just watched a kid make a guitar from copper wire. He ended up making a tin alloy for flowability. Cool to see but pretty impractical.

    I just had same switch on mine go bad it would run fine, I'd turn off mower clutch switch, shut it off, then wouldn't restart. There is a set of contacts which goes to starter solenoid coil on that mower clutch switch, so wont let you start with mower clutch engaged.. Supposed to be open when running closed with switch off.... Thanks for your video

      These seem to be a weak link on most zero turns. I know someone who turns her mower off and in like they are pumping hand lotion. (Did I say enough to insinuate its my wife? Haha!)

    You grease them so they won't rust ..... remove the seal on each bearing, smear some Lucas Red & Tacky in there 2 times a year and you will get 10-15 yrs out of them easily !! If you want to pump your gun 75 times or more in hopes of forcing grease past the seals for longevity, then good luck, but I personally think you are an Idiot !! 😏

    I agree that Channelock brand is best. I have the same size Channellock you showed and have used it many times removing oil filters, especially on new equipment and vehicles.
