  • With all the rain we are having a problem loosing traction and getting stuck in the mud with my wife's cart. This is about changing to a set of turf tires that have helped keep it moving. Also polishing up the windshield and body with Novus plastic polish.
    These are the tires. amzn.to/2PWlFIU
    This os the Novus 2 polish I use. amzn.to/2vRmYzB
    This is the Novus 1 polish I use. amzn.to/2JyIn92
    These are the springs I used. amzn.to/2YjSYbO

    Did this several times on the hotel’s golf carts! That’s when you decide 2 extra arms and hands would be useful!
    Thanks for the video!

      Hopefully no more pulling her out of the mud. I got stuck cooking on the grill that night. Thanks for watching.

    I was tired just watching you change those tires and I’m only 47 ! You got a lot of moxie. As always enjoy hearing from you great video. Thanks for taking the time to video, edit and post

    Wow - what a job! Hope the upgrade proves worth the effort. The treads look like they're improvement as well.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 років тому +1

      They made a big difference. The tires it came with just spun when it hit mud and even wet grass gave them problems. These have just enough thread to keep it moving in light mud and even made it handle better on wet grass. The true test is if she can get it stuck again. Thanks for watching.

    Great video. I used to use a golf cart for work. We opted for two part flange wheel rims which two halfs bolted together which made tire change easier

    That looked like quite the wrassle! I can hear my hubby dropping the F-bomb doing that job. I know to stay away if he does, he doesn't swear much. LOL. The polish did a nice job, I'll tell Bill about it for his Harley windshield. Thanks for sharing. No more muddy feet...good.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 років тому

      It's funny how little things can be harder to assemble. I used the Novus 1 on my Harley windshield for years to remove bugs and It works good. The #2 works good for fine scratches and swirls. Happy Mothers Day. Thanks for watching.

    Looks great! Mom got new tires and a wax job for mothers day!! Hope the wife made some pastry's while you were fighting with those tires. This weather is crazy with all the rain and now today some area's are getting snow showers. Keep the wood stove going for a bit longer. Awesome video Thank You!!

      She made some nice blueberry muffins. I still can't walk in the garden, it is all mud. It has been a crazy spring and my poor tomatoes are getting really big. We had the heat on all day today. Thanks for watching.

    I knew you’d overcome the obstacles, you’re very creative. One trick I’ve learned to break the bead is lay the tire on its side and take a vehicle heavy enough and ride over the sidewall and it pops immediately, you just need someone with you to line it up easier. Always interesting doings on this channel.

      There is no way to drive on one of these tiny tires. The machine works great if there is not wood piled where the handle needs to go. These little tires are a real big pain to change. Hopefully she won't get stuck in the mud again. Thanks for watching.

    Good job Ed. Of course I thought you'd lose your Fruit of the Looms fighting with the tires. I would have lost my patience.

      I should try to get Fruit of the Loom as a sponsor with all the exposure that I give them. Thanks for watching.

    Just what I was looking for. Ordered 2 of those same size tires for a zero turn rear, and thought I might try 2 on the rear of my golf cart, which will get stuck in a heartbeat. I think I'll go get the harbor freight mini changer, which I think is a little easier on those sizes. Nice vid and voiceovers

    A mod i've done to one of these (similar but the European variant) is on the top screw mount you put to hold the rim in place, i lobbed off the ear and welded a lever similar to the normal one. Really helps when putting tires on that have high ply or just plain stiffer compounds.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 років тому

      There is a slot to use the bar but your idea is better. These little tires sure are tough to mount. Thanks for watching.

  • @eosjoe565
    @eosjoe565 5 років тому +1

    One of the best lubricants for tires I have found is Go-Jo hand cleaner cream. It is very slippery and allows the tire to slip right off and on the rim. When finished it wipes right off and cleans your hands at the same time. :-)

  • @Tomsfoolery.
    @Tomsfoolery. 5 років тому +8

    Next time, use some vice grips on the rim to prevent the tire from walking around the rim while installing it.

  • @dangoras9152

    U need to use vise grips to hold the bead so u can work ur way around

      Electric and nitrous don't go well together. My wife likes it just the way it is so this is it. Goes right through the mud now. Thanks for watching.

    Do you treat your mower deck so grass doesn't stick? If so what do you use i have not had good luck with kitchen sprays such as pam and other nonstick sprays. I have resigned to a yearly cleaning and repaint to slow the rusting! Any Thoughts Thanks

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  3 роки тому +1

      No, just scrape and watch it rust. I tried some coatings when new but they were a waste of money. Thanks for watching.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  2 роки тому

      Fantastic. Still haven't had to add any air. Too bad they no longer sell the same ones. Thanks for watching.

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 років тому

      It is the 1/2 inch earthquake aluminum model. I think the current ones are slightly different. It's about 12 years old and has worked great. Use the 3/8 high flow couplers on all air tools for best performance. Thanks for watching.

      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 років тому

      There were several groups of 4 that went by that afternoon. I have been using the Jack for almost 2 years now with no problems. It's definitely overkill for a cart. It seems like a well made Jack. Thanks for watching.

    You said the new tires increased the circumference compared to the old tires??
    Don't forget to re-calibrate the *speedometer* !!
    (kidding) ;-)

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 років тому +1

      I was surprised. They both were supposed to be 18 inches. I will recalibrate her foot. Thanks for watching.

  • @georgesimpson3113
    @georgesimpson3113 5 років тому +1

    No need to run that much air... and they will leave less ruts and have more traction with a little less air. Try about 2/3's or 3/4 of max as a start...

    • @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023
      @unemployedredneckhillbilly2023  5 років тому +1

      Like I said you have to inflate to max pressure to make sure they seal properly then back them off some. 18 psi seems to work best in them. Thanks for watching.

      I guess they no longer sell them. To bad they are great tires and still haven't needed a y additional air. Thanks for watching.
