    Well done changing those tyres. I have changed car tyres plenty of times using brute force and tyre levers. It is hard work. Why did you change the front wheels and tyres? Was it to use narrower tyres (possibly fitted as standard) and save on wear of steering components. The truck should also be lighter on the steering.

    She's a tidy looking truck for her age, even things like the mudguards don't look to faded. Will you be naming the truck as some do? If I ever get my own truck I'd name her after my mum.
    I'm interested to know how many thousand kilometres or miles you expect to get from the new tyres before they need replacing? Also when they do need replacing can they be regroved or remoulded or will you get a new set again?
    Thanks again for making these videos.

    Why did you change wheels and not but new tyres you had on the wheels that came with the truck

    • @LenaTrucker
      @LenaTrucker  2 роки тому

      They make the truck handle like poo. They’re heavy. It’s better to drive it with normal tyres on.

      Ooh really
      As for mileage I don’t really know. But about 2 years for a front set and 3 for the backs. Front tyres cannot be regroved but the backs can

    No offence meant, but not a good idea to have loose pieces of hair when you have a drivebelt going around, couldnt believe the messing around just to jack it up, manual bottle jacks are perfectly adequate.
