Well it must be the season for tire issues. I got a flat on the front of my John Deere 180 tractor. I used an idea from Gord Baker and it helped a lot in removing and placing the tire on the wheel.

Thank you for taking the time to show us your work as you are in a very cold garage. I learned.

Brings back some great memories, after 38 years in the Small engine service, and repairs of all kinds of Mowers.Warms my heart to watch this.

I never thought about the bench vice set-up and the clamps. Now, my knuckles and shins are safe. Thank you for sharing.

I put a tube in my lawn tractor's front tire this weekend thanks to your very helpful video! I also threaded a nut onto the Valve Stem to keep it from disappearing back into the hole, and left it there in case it wants to wander later. While filling the tube, I heard the alarming hiss of leaking air, and feared that the new tube had failed - only to realize it was the air escaping from between the tire and the tube before the beads had fully seated - whew! Cheers!

Very simple but excellent idea to stabilize that tire. Nice to see it go a bit easier this time Bruce. Another winner!

C-Clamps!! Brilliant! Wish I had thought of using them!! I did use a big C-clamp to break the beads but holding the tire down with them is just what I needed to see! THANK YOU!!

Best patch kit I ever had was a schwinn bicycle patch kit, came with different size rubber patches, and rubber cement, and the top of the can was the grater to ruff up the rubber tube, I still have the can and top but everything else is gone, and yes the weather is nasty here too in Maryland, 70 today and snow expected Monday what a strange spring..... Great video Bruce.

I have a tyre sealant with fibres in a 20ltr drum and a calibrated pump. i just remove the inner valve and give measured pumps of the sealant according to tyre size. inflate the tyre and within two revolutions the hole is sealed. works on tubed and tubless tyres and can seal a hole of 13mm diameter in tubeless tyres. as for joe public who doesnt have this stuff, the tyre changer idea works really well. awesome video to get people out of a sticky situation. well done.

I gotta tell you, that’s a dang good idea. I just tried to fix one similar to that the other day. I have all the stuff you used, just gotta apply it.

I bought a pair of tire tools for $12 at Harbor Freight. SO much better than the screwdrivers I'd been using. Nice tire changer idea, Bruce! I'm going to make one the next time I have to do that. Thanks!
