I know you guys will do well ! After a while expand into truck tires . The only thing you need more are 1” drive impact , tire bars , bucket of Murphy’s Tire Soap , air jack , tire cage , and a air tank bead seater . There is a technic you guys will easily learn with truck tires .
For those chrysler lugs that swell up snap-on makes a kit with 1/2 sizes like 19.5 and 21.5 you guys may wanna look into getting. I been doing the roadside assistance about 7 years for another company and just now getting around to trying to form my own LLC
How did you figure out the starting point to what you should charge for this service because and I asked that question specifically because there isn't anybody or there aren't a lot of people doing this so how do you know what the starting point is and how much you should get and all that stuff because do you charge for the mile per mile to get to the location and then how do you figure out how much to charge once you're at the location to actually take the tire off and change it would that be the same cost as going to a garage to have it done there
Idk what it is about the Ford lug nuts, I know they have caps on them. But not even the lug wrench that comes with the kit fits the nuts right half the time.
Purchase a 18.5mm and 19.5mm combo socket for those aluminum lugs. Instead of beating those sockets on, the .5mm socket will help. I also have the 21.5mm and 22.5mm combo socket as well. They will save you time. You can get them off of Amazon. What generator are you using?
@@roadsidegenius thank you for the feed back. I like how quiet it is, but I’m gonna have to go with a bigger one. My air compressor is electric and I’m pretty sure with the air compressor running and the tire machine running, it will cause a problem.
Looking good... Bought the 15 ft box truck. It's almost coming along. Got the air compressor with the truck.Need to clean the inside up. I'll try to put a video up. Don't know what gas generator to get,looking for one. Take care
@@roadsidegenius Dame that northstar is pricey. I'm on that EBT level 🤣🤣 I was looking at the predator 9000. How u apply to be in the AAA contractor?? Or a roadside program
@@dagrind8710 lol and sizes of these 2 vehicles .. instead of that pickup truck he could use ford fiesta. Instead of other one he could use meidium hight van looool .

Do you use a generator or inverter to power the equipment?

Do u clean the mating surface for the tire now ?
Yes.
How do you guy run your compressor and generator inside the truck without the worry of carbon monoxide
good air flow.
how many times per day do you calibrate your ballancer ? i mean i guess you dont park on perfectly smooth road
Depends sometimes we just get the opportunity to only use her once.

What generator are you using?
@@roadsidegenius no issues running the machines on that generator?
@@roadsidegenius thank you for the feed back. I like how quiet it is, but I’m gonna have to go with a bigger one. My air compressor is electric and I’m pretty sure with the air compressor running and the tire machine running, it will cause a problem.
@@roadsidegenius that’s exactly what I’m doing.
Do u need to calibrate the wheel balancer every time u go to a costumer
yes
yes\
@@roadsidegenius i heard that you dont. I bet thats why your balance needs to restart this often.
what size air compressor is that
60 bucks about 4 lbs
Hey how is the Atlas equipment? About to buy a machine but cant find reviews on atlas.
And if your machine is out of level you will have trouble balancing, or rim was bent like you said.
Air powered tire machine is the way to go in my opinion. Best brand would be coats even if it's used.
I agree, for the budget atlas is ok.
How are you running your tire machine

How much did you charge for this job?
Forgot to put there Center cap back on
😅
Oh, Ford lug nuts. I hate them with a burning passion.
get out the wind we can't hear you
Two guys on a tire call waste
Did it twice as fast as you would have done it by yourself. Guaranteed.
@@roadsidegenius sure bro sure and at twice the man hour rate as well plus fuel on both vehicles simply ridiculous
