Changing A Tire With CTIS
Вставка

- So many questions on tires with CTIS, here's the answer. Some of my most creative editing so far and I hope it helps keep the crowd in the most professional way. Just purchased some new mics for better audio and more videos to come. Let me know in the comments what you liked or disliked. The biggest thanks to my battle buddies that came out for 5 hours of filming on their 4 day Veterans day weekend to help me make this happen and mostly sat through 19 hours of editing with me.

Excellent video. Thanks for your service Gentlemen.
Thank you for your support!
I just love the fact that I'm a British Civilian, knowing I'll probably never even get near or see one of these trucks irl. However just in-case I find one broken down on the motorway, I now know how to help him change his tyre...
What is my life at 5am?
Thanks for being willing to lend a hand🙂. Make sure you ask them for a box of MRE's as payment 😁. (Meal Ready to Eat)
Great job guys! You may also use the soapy water technique on the CTIS hoses, some times you can detect the leak in a hose before airing up.
Absolutely true. Thanks, I'll add it to the AAR comments for the video to add if I do something in the future for classes
Very good vid,
Thank you very much for your service.
Thank you for the support🙂
Just added your video to my FMTV drivers training slides
Glad they are a good tool for you. Let me know if you need anything else🙂
Excellent job guys. Very entertaining.
Thank you for your service & protecting S. Korea!!!
Thank you for your support 🙂.
Awesome video thank you for the video I’m leaving too Ft.Leonard Wood Missouri on September
now I want a truck like this!
Pretty good trucks when you take care of them
Thank You All for Your Service
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT 🥰
Magnificent transport, as well as everything that is made in the USA.
I bet he turns all his certificates in time
Nice. Let’s see some recovery SSG. Thanks for the videos
FIRED UP SSG! Yes, let's get started on this recovery 😋
_Thanks for a video_
Anytime🙂
So glad my trucks dont have that trash on them, had nothing but problems with ctis on 5 tons in Marine Corps.
Awesome thanks for the training.
Thanks for the feedback and glad it helped🙂
@@Whogives2shets Can you make a video on how to remove the tire from the rim. Thanks for your service.
@@marcosruiz2217 sure can. As soon as the Covid restrictions relax and I can really pump some video's out, I'll get it done for you🙂
@@Whogives2shets Thanks I really appreciate.
Had the front tire on an old 5 ton come off on the highway - pulled it over on the drum and replaced it with the spare. Just me (old Sarge) and a terrified PV2 lol. The damned HEMTT wrecker crew rolls up as we are dropping it back to the ground and then laughed at me, the SOBs 👍.
Gotta love Soldier humor. One person's misery is the other's entertainment, and even the person in the miserable situation understands it enough to find the humor as well... eventually 😂
Thanks Brother Great Video, Now I need to find someone in KY to do some trading....LOL
Just picked up my LMTV from Ft Campbell in December.
Hellavu truck.
I can't believe that our service members in a potential war zone need to jack up those tires with a hydraulic bottle jack. We need to get you guys some hydraulic lifting levelers.
APPRECIATE YOUR SERVICE!!!
Cool video
Thank you🙂

Nice video
Keep making these videos please.
I would only add that the lug nuts on the other side are reverse threads.
That's a valid point. The lugs even have the letter on them for the turn direction so it's definitely worth the mention. I'll add it to the AAR.
I was going to suggest that. I'm sure many troops have been frustrated. Thank you for the video SSG looking sharp.
Thanks you to all you soldiers for your service 🙏
We thank you for your support, sir.
Somebody throw his adjustable wrench away, 🤣
😅🤣they don't trust me with Snap-on so it's all I got
I find it odd you have an air supply that can fill your tires but they don't supply you with a jack that can use that air supply to jack the vehicle up. I get there is always the risk of failure with either the air or a locking mechanism but seems like it would be a quicker option.
I'm not sure the specifics of what volume of air is needed for those air jacks but I know the trucks air compressor isn't very powerful. It requires high idle just to run the impact. To do an entire wheel. I'm also not sure the cost difference but definitely something I will look into with my maintenance chief to see if it's a better option. Thanks for the thought🙂
The engine is fine all day on high idle. You could easily run a pneumatic bottle jack with a slave air line.
My bad, that's his PT belt...? drive on.
Is there anything else you guys would need to make this job easier?
Just training time. We have all the equipment provided already
What is the difference between Goodyear and Michelin? Both are 395 85 20. Does the Army have a purpose other than they are from different vendors? Seems the MVT would be a better road tread and the XZL would be better in the mud.
Many times It's regionally based for what is available to be shipped to the base. Check the TM because on certain vehicles, mixing tire types isn't allowed for the reason you mentioned. Having too aggressive of a tire on one side can cause premature wear on the tires and alignment issues.
Seth, I recently acquired an MTV for our Division of Emergency Management. What is the best way to contact you with questions about the vehicle?

Hey would you guys know, or get the part number for the belts needed on an M998? 6.2 (2000) any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you
Unfortunately, I have no way to look it up. I work in a BDE far from any mechanics that could help me find that. Sry
@Whogives2shets ok. I really appreciate you taking the time to respond. Thank you just the same. Be safe.
Thank you for your service! Also, you could be quicker in the battlefield with an air/hydraulic jack. Also a 1" drive impact. I work for goodyear commercial tire and would love to show you guys easier, safer and more efficient ways to do your job. No offense you you guys at all but your wheel chock placement was wrong, and to use a jack without a jack stand is VERY dangerous.
Thank you for your support and no offense taken🙂. I absolutely agree that having all tactical vehicles equipped with pneumatic, hydraulic, or even strong battery impacts and jacks would be much more efficient and safer. As some of our vehicles are equipped with pneumatic impacts, all still have regular bottle jacks. I'm sure the expense is the reason we don't have the better individual vehicle equipment. Even though our budget is massive, the US government is not well known for proper spending decisions 😅. We do use great tools in maintenance areas, and better tools and jack stands are required in those areas. However, this is what the vast majority of our vehicle inventory has: muscles and wrenches 😂. Feel free to send a video or tutorial for me to use and educate others with. I know there are 100 ways to skin a cat, and learning a better, safer way is always a bonus. Tag me in it or email it to Stb4610@yahoo.com. All input is greatly appreciated, sir🥰.
I had several 3/4" 24v impacts that plugged into the vehicle slave receptacles in Iraq - they are out there, units may not know about them or their NSNs.
@@Lafly84 they know about them, just rarely order them😅😂

Why are Kevlars mandatory when driving and changing tires when not in the field. I was in the Guard from 1998 to 2000 and it wasn't mandatory then.
The Army's attempt to train as we fight, mitigate risk, and minimize head injuries. Inside the cab, there is more equipment than in the past. While driving, most vehicles are equipped with Driver Vision Enhancment (a screen that comes down to use with a thermal camera for night driving) and other equipment like computers that break easy and can hit operators in the head causing "preventable" injuries. I have my own opinion on this application that we most likely agree on, but Big Army trumps SSG any day😅😂
@Operator University ok thanks for the explanation. Great job on the videos and it they make me miss being an 88M
Always glad to assist. 88M is definitely one of the more fun MOS in my opinion
@Operator University unfortunately I made the mistake of switching to 19K when I switched to Active Duty Army I really should have stayed as an 88M
i want one of those... 800% ilegal here in peru haha
How can a thick tire like that get a leak I thought they were made out of Kevlar puncture-proof
Unfortunately, none of the military standard tires are Kevlar. They are very puncture resistant, with most of them being 16 ply walls. The inflation system works to help keep cost-effective equivalent to "bulletproof" by having a mode that consistently pumps air in if there's a large or small leak so you can get to safety.
@@Whogives2shets thanks for explaining that to me and thank you for the good job that you do
@davidstark6507 always glad to assist 🙂
Y’all get badges for driving? 🤣
Yes, the Driver/ Mechanic Badge is a great way for Soldiers to show our greater experience as operators. It's a visible way for newer troops to see who is experienced by miles, years and being accident free so they can seek that individuals knowledge and expertise. It has no purpose to the civilian side except for a, "here's something shinny on my uniform" but while in service it is worth promotion points and can help get greater positions that require safe, experienced drivers.🙂
@@Whogives2shets you know what I got for driving? A day without hazing.
@@markholub97 I bet you're one hell of an operator for it. 😅
My 1SG told me all my essential oils will stay inside my body if I wear my PT belt
😂🤣No class 3 during PT
@@Whogives2shets right, 1st Sarnn 1st Sarnn something is wrong the PT belt isn’t working, my forehead is leaking. We doing a mile for every class 3 I see from any of y’all.
Why won't the US Army install M-777 guns on FMTV trucks for mobility? High mobility improves survivability on the modern battlefield.
You’re a mechanic too If you’re a 88M ?
I am a certified mechanic on the civilian side, not by MOS. It has helped a lot in the things I've done in the military, but I'm not a military mechanic. The other person that assisted with the videos is the mechanic. Did you have a mechanic question?
I’m thinking about doing 88m, I thought u had to be a mechanic as well as a 88m or is it just transporting and loading and unloading cargos n trailers
Is it transporting and loading n unloading cargo and driving or is it being a mechanic as well involves ?
@Kwe99 Oh, ok. No, you don't have to be a mechanic to be an 88M. It does help to have mechanical knowledge because these trucks are as low quality as you can imagine. However, because of that fact, you will learn a lot about vehicles during your time as an 88M.
88M is a very versatile MOS and transitions extremely well to the civilian side as well as being a mechanic. The primary job as an 88M is definitely a lot of loading and transport, but there are lots of Soldier responsibilities and random tasks as well. You will go to the field and train, conduct convoy security operations (shoot and qualify with the big guns), ammo/fuel/supply support to small teams, and lots of physical training.
As for random details, you will learn how to mop rain, clean restrooms better than a hotel maid, cut grass like you own an FL golf course, and you will be able to stay up for 24 hours for no explainable reason watching a door and still function with 15% of your brain.
@@Kwe99 i hope that explanation helps your choice
Lol i have a wireless impact.
In real life they would’ve hunted for some Joes to do it instead.
@Soldier1287 in training, absolutely. I always choose the most inexperienced troop to change the tires and if I know they are fucking it up, I don't say shit till the end on purpose. I want them to learn and use their brain. I know what you mean, though. You see many senior ranks that can't do the task in a reasonable time, and that's a whole different issue. I wish they just supplied all vehicles with good equipment and required training to keep us all proficient and well supplied with the quickest and best practices, but they won't, unfortunately
