    Welcome to another episode of The Eight Nine Garage. In this episode, I make the common upgrade to a Harbor Freight Manual Tire Changer. This is a really nice piece for the money. Do any of you have this tire changer? Any other mods you'd suggest?

    I need to make one of those too, wish you had a camera holder so we could see it in action.

      When I get tires for my Mustang, I'll do some more video. I also will be making a new mount for it to go in the trailer hitch on my truck. I appreciate your support!!

    If it works good and it’s wheels you do care about just wrap those places with tape and it’ll be fine to not scratch anything. I think you’ve sold me on this bad boy dude.

      I'm sure glad I bought it, especially if these prices for a mount and balance keep climbing! Good tip on tape... I'll have to remember that one.

    Great mod! I was a tire mounter for a few years in high school, this brings back some memories, lol.

    30-40 each is a steal dude. Around where I live it runs you about 90 per tire.

    • @89G

      Wow, that's robbery! I guess I won't feel as bad about being quoted 30 to 40 per tire. Thanks for adding that info, it's always good to see what everyone else is seeing in their area!

    man i need one of those really bad, Im like you im not crazy about paying 30-40 bucks per tire just to put it on. the entire job only takes 10min max thats a slick mod that you done to it. If I bought one id hafta hire you to make your adapter for me cause I dont have a welder or know how to use one 🤣😂

      LOL... let me know! I'l be glad to help. I think I'm going to get a different method of balancing down for the future though. I don't want to bead balance the Mustang's. It worked well for the SUV tires though.

      I'm feeling quite a bit better. Just a light head cold remains, and a lack of energy. It really wasn't as bad as I was expecting it to be.
