Yes, PLEASE do a video on sidewall repair!! I have a couple to repair and I KNOW that if Moe teaches it, I can rely on it!! Thanks for all the free education Moe! Very helpful stuff.
I have to say thanks. Yet Again. I was basically born, grown and formed in scrapyards and workshops, it truely feels like 'home' watching your videos. The knowledge, tips and techniques are solid gold. Also, Good 'ol Ginger showing off. Fricking love that creature and the relationship between you guys :-)
I use the weight of my truck to pop the bead, works every time. Lay the atv/utv tire down in front of your truck tire so when you drive up on it you just miss driving on the rim. Having someone hold the tire from sliding helps a lot.
Moe,, thanks for sharing your ingenuity. I have built so many of your inventions and use your techniques I just can’t thank you enough! Keep up the good work. And yes please on the sidewall repair video if you want to.
I fought my 400ex tire for two hours before I gave up and paid a shop to mount them. I couldn’t even break the bead on one! Man you made this look easy!
as usual, having the right tools for the job makes all the difference in the world. a few years back i started working on bringing my grandpas old vehicle back to life (a 1955 fordson thames van), and i spent 3 hours trying to get the tire free from just one of the rusted steel rims, it was one hell of a workout. ended up taking the rest to a tire shop, but learned a valuable lesson XD
I have changed at least 6 atv tires with my HF tire changer and at first it was almost impossible because the sidewall would collapse and the bead removal tool would slip off. The trick I discovered is to leave a small amount of air in the tire and then your sidewall does not collapse and you can break your bead like on a normal tire.
I've actually done that using tire machines on aluminum wheels that bonded with the tires after cranking the air regulator to the machine up. Prevents slippage and damaging the tire.
I know an old tire guy that uses a dish soap bottle filled with Varsol to squirt around the beads. Really slick and it tends to soften the rubber a little on older tires to help them seal to the rim.
Good stuff buddy, I don’t always comment but I watch your stuff a lot one thing that I loved is when I put all of my tires changing equipment mounted it onto a plastic pallet to where I can move it around on my property. About an ATV tire changing kit from Harbor freight about eight or nine years ago did several videos on it that thing works like a charm for it basically anything up to a small car tire. Keep the videos come and have a great day
Hey Moe, something to consider: A custom sized piece of wood to act as a spacer on the back side set-up. Something to span both sides of the straight sided 'inside'. Resting on both bottom rims and high enough to "properly" provide a base for the bead-breaker to work against (on the 'in' side of the rim). Might work?
Ok, ok... you have my attention.. Do you have a video on how you built that bead breaker? Looks like some 3"x3" -1/4" angle, some 2"x2" -1/4" square, some 1/4" plate, and not sure about the threaded stuff?
We used old bumper jack...remember those..lay tire on ground and put jack base on tire bead then place other end under bumper and Jack until bead is broken... Ah the good old days..lol
Well, I should have watched this video yesterday. The vise grip tip and using a ratchet with a hammer, a better bead breaker, would have helped. It was a battle, but no one got set on fire, lost any fingers, not too much blood, and we got all four tires on. Will do some things different next time. Thanks.
As someone who thought the bead breaker was awesome the first time seeing it n making one of my own it's a great build but use a good quality steel for the foot. I used 1/4 plate n it bent alot. I see moe has added some gussets to the outside feet. But dude if you fight with tough beads you definitely need one
i wound up putting tubes in my brand new quad tires because i could not get my beads close to seating no matter what i tried. seated up nice with tubes though.
I gotta make one of your bead breakers one day. It makes it look too easy. I wonder if they make tubes for the leaky tires that don't have big holes but lose air.
Make a insert for the back deep dish of the rim and use the tool as you wold on the face of the rim much less time messing with the tool to break the bead from the rim🤙
Just a thought, Make a slim shelf to cross the width of the back side about the deapth of the front and put rubber on the parts that would hurt the sides, That way you only would need to do aone or 2 spots on the back side.
I remember watching the other videos about these tools, probably need to watch again. definitely useful stuff if i ever get around to trying to make one!
That's just tape. I have a lot of metal shavings in the shop and this prevents the metal slivers from embedding into the plastic battery when I set the drill down.
Haltec amzn.to/3LBA0qC It was turned onto it by a subscriber and it is everything he said it was. I have around 5 years of use on it and it works awesome. You could carry the tire around with it.

Great video and tire tips Moe, thank you! I see your advance scout is on duty and doing her job! Lol! P.S. What is your opinion on using silicone mold release spray to mount and dismount tires? I think it works much better than soap and water. At first, I was worried that if I used it on a drive wheel that the tire would slip on the rim, but it seems to break down and go away and so far it has not been a problem on my wheels.
@@Enigma-Sapiens I've heard of so many random things being used by guys. Murphy's soap, KY jelly, etc. Short of grease I think anything is going to help.
Yeah, the Haltec amzn.to/3LBA0qC I was turned onto it by a subscriber and it is everything he said it was. I have around 5 years of use on it and it works awesome. You could carry the tire around with it.
With that much tread left,, I thought this was also gonna be about repairing the tire from the inside! Seems like multiple layer patches or something would do it..
Be careful with that tire strap method-- I've had a strap break doing that. Stand clear when adding air if you can. The hook can come around and give you a nice smack if the strap lets go. For everyone else who wants to try it: I'd still recommend that method for putting on tires-- just use a good strap and some common sense.
I cut out a little discussion about straps and think the flame/starter fluid method is safer if you only have a 1" strap. I use a 2" commercial strap and make sure there is not valve core in. I won't go more than 5ish psi with the strap in place.
@@JT-tz5hp Yup, no argument about that- this is 100% the way to do it. Just want people to be aware in case they attempt it with a smaller strap, etc. In my case it actually let go before the beads popped into place. Guess the rubber made enough of a seal on the rim.
@@sixtyfiveford Keep up the awesome tutorials! Your method as shown is exactly what I do now. The one that gave on me was a quality 1" strap, luckily no damage done-- maybe some underwear that needed changing.

Hammering around the tire is a tip I’ll use!! I’ve done the tire strap method a few times and it is always a fight when the rubber kinks
Hey thanks
You are a alien everything comes so easy to you. You fix anything and make it look simple, your dog has a higher IQ than me. Much respect!!
Hey thanks.
I fought my 400ex tire for two hours before I gave up and paid a shop to mount them. I couldn’t even break the bead on one! Man you made this look easy!
I know what you mean I have spent hours driving over ATV tires, using tractor buckets, etc to no avail. This thing has saved so much labor.
as usual, having the right tools for the job makes all the difference in the world. a few years back i started working on bringing my grandpas old vehicle back to life (a 1955 fordson thames van), and i spent 3 hours trying to get the tire free from just one of the rusted steel rims, it was one hell of a workout. ended up taking the rest to a tire shop, but learned a valuable lesson XD
It's amazing how strong the bond between rusted steel and rubber can get.
A fellow resourceful ginger. Fix, repair, build. Love this channel.

You sir, are a Legend. Your dog is equally as legendary. Making your own tools really is one of the marks of a true Renaissance Man.
Thanks Luke

I believe your tire changer is faster than my Coates 100, nice work 👍. Ginger looks like she was enjoying the snow. 👍
I would definitely own a real tire machine if I had the shop space.
Ginger can have fun anywhere, anytime.
Good stuff buddy, I don’t always comment but I watch your stuff a lot one thing that I loved is when I put all of my tires changing equipment mounted it onto a plastic pallet to where I can move it around on my property.

This is the video I was looking for you can change tires all day long no back pain!
Hey Moe, something to consider:

You make it look so easy. That de-beader tool works great.
It's been a huge labor saver.
Homemade bead buster 👍👍👍 im no fabricator i bought mine but that configuration is best for stubborn atv wheels
Ok, ok... you have my attention..
Do you have a video on how you built that bead breaker?
Looks like some 3"x3" -1/4" angle, some 2"x2" -1/4" square, some 1/4" plate, and not sure about the threaded stuff?

Appreciate it!
We used old bumper jack...remember those..lay tire on ground and put jack base on tire bead then place other end under bumper and Jack until bead is broken... Ah the good old days..lol
That new tire mount/dismount tool is coming in handy. Small rims suck but it made it look easy
I've been really happy with it.
Old school and new school cool!! LOL Thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
On the road again or off-road I should say ! Great tip with the hammer with the strap 👍
Thanks 👍
Wow super nice job I had to use my tractor to break the tire bead. So much nicer with this tool. Semper Fi
Thats incredible. Not that you changed a tire... but that you parted with money for a brand new skin
I will fix the other for a spare....
I was hoping to see the starting fluid method!😳
Excellent video as always.
That's always fun
Thanks for the info. You ever tube the tires, especially if you have sidewall puncture?
Problem with tubing tires is simple thread punctures require a full tire breakdown. I have done tubes many times and almost always regret it.
Great video. The poor man's way to break loose the bead without the tool is lay it on the ground and step on the edges.
I have the same tires on my kodiak. Love the content as always, you never miss.
They seam like a good traction design.
Yep home made tools , have lots of them. Thanks also for watching and commenting on my videos, its much appreciated
Thanks Bruce
First class as usual. Thank u!!
Thanks!

As long as you got the tires on you did a good job.
As always, good stuff. Can you go over your tool that you made? Very interested in that bead breaker design.
I built that 4years ago and have a video. ua-cam.com/video/C1n5HfUJz1Q/v-deo.html I added a few more gussets over the years with hard use.
As someone who thought the bead breaker was awesome the first time seeing it n making one of my own it's a great build but use a good quality steel for the foot. I used 1/4 plate n it bent alot. I see moe has added some gussets to the outside feet. But dude if you fight with tough beads you definitely need one

Funny, I used that vise grip trick today on a couple of L & G tires. Remembered from you earlier vid.
Awesome
Great job done there, you made that look too easy.Like that bead breaker a lot....take care
Make a insert for the back deep dish of the rim and use the tool as you wold on the face of the rim much less time messing with the tool to break the bead from the rim🤙
I also built a bead breaker, but I find it just s easy to to bust a bead, by running over the tire with my truck.
Just a thought, Make a slim shelf to cross the width of the back side about the deapth of the front and put rubber on the parts that would hurt the sides, That way you only would need to do aone or 2 spots on the back side.
Can you repair sidewall for a passenger car? Shops always refuse to do it
haha, dogs just love the snow...great video!
Thanks for watching!
Looking forward to the video on permanent repair of sidewalls. I have my ideas, but I really want to know what you do.
You sir, are a master. Great work!!!!!!!!!!!
Pretty smooth.
Hey Thanks. What I did in 10 minutes would take me an hour/two 10 years ago.
I remember watching the other videos about these tools, probably need to watch again. definitely useful stuff if i ever get around to trying to make one!
beautiful area you live in.
Thanks, it is. I just have to remember to stop and smell the roses once in a while.
I know this is random, but 2:03 why is the drill battery blue ?
That's just tape. I have a lot of metal shavings in the shop and this prevents the metal slivers from embedding into the plastic battery when I set the drill down.
You got skillz my dude
Thanks for watching
What was the locking chuck you showed?

@@sixtyfiveford awesome! Thank you so much for taking the time to reply.
Great toolage and tactics Moe.
Thanks
As a "lock out Chuck" I had an old battery powered emergency tire pump that went bad, just cut the hose and use the Chuck to deflate
Great job as always 👍👍👍
Hey thanks

I've never used mold release. I generally use a dedicated tire bead lube or soapy water. The bead lube is definitely slipperier.
@@sixtyfiveford, Ok, thanks!

@@sixtyfiveford , LOL! The KY Jelly got me! I'd have never thought of that. Take care, be safe, healthy, happy, & prosperous!
There you go shook the dust off the bead buster!
That little thing has been a lifesaver.
Sounds like the latest spin-off from the Ghostbusters franchise.
Who you gonna call???? "Beadbusters"!! 🤣🤣
Link to the lock on tire chuck at 7:38 please.
This. I couldn't make out the name. Kinda looks DIY.

Would a bought bead buster on eBay work as good as the one you have fabricated? Appreciate good Atv videos. 👍
Yes. They are a huge time/labor saver.
Excellent video! (As always...) Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You should make those bead breakers and sell them. . I’d buy one from you!
So don't spray aresol in there and light it up?
break cleaner and a match works too
Absolutely.
Always great information thank you for sharing
Hey thanks, George.
Good job,good video
Thanks as always.
Thanks again!
NICE TIPS !!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks James
LOL ur bead breaker is funny...new to atvs?...use trolly jack and a strap hehe
With that much tread left,, I thought this was also gonna be about repairing the tire from the inside! Seems like multiple layer patches or something would do it..

Common sense was used in this video. I always remove the strap as soon as the beads pop into place.

Those cheapo chinese tires are so easy to puncture. Especially the sidewalls.
You don't do sidewall repairs Emergency only.. Otherwise your tire is trash.

Awesome!
I would be better off paying for it instead of buying the equipment
Lmao! Change a tire at home the easy way??
