Eric Just seen your video in SSB on CB radio Good Video I really like it For me CB Radio is pretty Much Dead in Hawaii Except for the Big Island but where I live its Dead that why I got my Ham License But Im still keeping my Uni den Grant Radio in a Box Keep up the good work there are people watching you Aloha and 73 LOL
On some carts the new tire may hit the bed of the cart if like on yours the wheel has a different size spindle. A piece of PVC pluming pipe will take up the space on the axle to prevent the rubbing.
I have had it with the small cart tires. They don't last. I would like to make the under carriage taller for better dumping and use an axle that will accept rear lawn tractor tires.
My wheels and axle are rusted/fused together. I tried to spray WD40 and let it sit but no luck. How can I get the wheels off? They both need to be replaced. TIA
take 1 lug nut and put it on slightly- just a few threads- then take a sledgehammer, and smack it from the inside hitting the rubber until it comes free. If there is no place to put a lug nut (depends on the model) the idea is the same. Brute force
thank you so much No male muscles in my home I'm a DIY gal Could not figure out to use a hammer with my needle nose pliers to get the pin out Duah lol THANK YOU!
When I replaced my rims and tires used a set from harbor freight there a little more broader. I carefully taped off and cut a a little less than a quarter of and inch off each end of peaces that hold the axle smoothed it out with a drimnel a little prime better than new more support
If you still have the assembly manual it should list the part number. Since these are all mostly the same, my guess is it will cross reference to one on Amazon or Ebay.
My local steel supplier sells 1/2-in, 5/8 and 3/4 (and others) smooth steel rods by the foot. Then all you need is a hole for the cotter pin on each end, depending upon how yours attaches to the cart (many just clamp onto the rod). A 3-ft rod of 5/8 or 3/4 at the hardware store is $15.
I blew out a bearing in my older Craftsman dump cart. Wheel and tire are fine. I'm having a hell of a time finding the correct radial flanged bearings for these cart tires. The axles 3/4 so I need 3/4 ID wheels. They're $40-$55/ea at Tractor Supply. I can't just spending that when all I need is 2 stinking bearings. How on Earth did you find a wheel and tire for $16? What size is that axle?
Got a pair today at HarborFreight for $28 each, with 3/4 bore bearings and a spare set for 5/8 (knock out one set, press in the other), plus a couple of other shims attached for other adjustments. Less than half the price of TSC for similar. My AgriFab has a 3/4 axle, as does my Craftsman. Add a pair of washers and cotter pins and you're good to go.
@@FarpointFarms I have tried that. It looks like it's a solid piece that was under washer, almost like it would screw off but doesn't turn. I have sprayed with WD 40 too.
Long time ago video. Still relevant today, except price! Omg I went to tsc today and tires were 39$ each without rims. Uggg inflation got me again! How’s the back doing? Thanks again for the videos!
Spray the shaft with lube and let it sit for a day. Then come back and spray some more and tap the shaft with a hammer a few times to shock it a bit and hopefully let the lube in.
looks like a shit tire that will rot out in a year and a half. My problem is that the dump cart I have is super crap and reaplcement wheels have hubs that are too wide and the diameter of the axle is slightly less than 5/8"
For the life of me I cant find a wheel to fit. My axle seems to be an 1/8 of an inch bigger than the hole on the new tires. I have the Powercare dump cart, looks like the same one you have. Do you have a link you comment with for the specific tire you use? Thanks
Thank you so much for this helpful, easy to follow along repair

Great vid. Thanks, you took the second guessing out of it!
Thank you so much for your helpful tutorial!

What if your wheels are held on by a nut that turns and turns but doesn’t come off? Not a cotter pin?
Cool vid👍🏽
thanks
Flip cart upside down. No jack stand needed at all.
Yup! That works fine too.
On some carts the new tire may hit the bed of the cart if like on yours the wheel has a different size spindle. A piece of PVC pluming pipe will take up the space on the axle to prevent the rubbing.
Thanks for the tip!
Pro1er brilliant
I have same trailer. The axle on mine is 3/4". The tires I bought have 3/4" bearings but they will not go onto the axle?
Were the tires 3/4 inner diameter or outer. It makes a difference.
I have had it with the small cart tires. They don't last. I would like to make the under carriage taller for better dumping and use an axle that will accept rear lawn tractor tires.

I broke my dump cart axle. Any advice on where I can find a replacement?

Having the same issue @wonderer
I got the cotter pin and washer off but can't pull tire off. Any suggestions?
It is stuck? Try tapping (lightly) with a hammer from the rear. Many time this will free it up.

inflation is getting us all, back is slowly getting better. Hopefully by the end of summer I will be much better
Mine won't come off. works good but can't get off to put better tires on . what can I do.
Spray the shaft with lube and let it sit for a day. Then come back and spray some more and tap the shaft with a hammer a few times to shock it a bit and hopefully let the lube in.
@@FarpointFarms OK it seems like theirs another pin or something and I didn't want to force it. I'll try thanks
where do you buy your wheels from?
eBay.
FYI, you said it's ok if the tire walks a little. But mine walked a little and wore out the axle. Don't want it to happen to you.
Dang. Now I'll have to go out there and double check to see if mine is worn. Thanks for the tip!

I'm about to pull my hair out, have the same problem. Should be a 3/4" axle and bore, but it just won't go on. What did you end up doing?
@@kerinobrien6642 dude I'm not going to lie, I forgot Lol! I'll take a look this weekend and try to respond to this
@@kerinobrien6642 I have same issue. I measure axle and it is 3/4". I buy tires 3/4" ID bearings and they will not fit on axle.
My replacements, which I’m now replacing again, refuse to come off after removing the pin…..
Rust build up? Try heating the bearing (NOT THE SHAFT) and tap on it.
or you could use TireJect Tire Sealant
That same tire now costs $70
Inflation is out of control!
