Everything you were doing was right on point except the fact that you did not use any spray soap or lubricant to ease the mounting of the tire and you were clearly struggling more than necessary fighting the friction. Nonetheless it was a very good video, thank you.

Removing and installing is completely opposite to everything you have shown. Plus you will need to go in a counter clockwise direction. A bit of tire bead lube or dishwashing soap will help a lot

Removal is over the duck head under the duck tail, install is under the duck head over the duck tail. Just remember a drowning duck always comes up, a duck with air installs a spare. Direction of travel is always duck tail in front duck head in back, which is counter clockwise on a manual changer.

Glad to see they made an upgrade to this harbor freight tool. I've owned the simple version for 5+ yrs. I've changed countless tires on it.

This is a great tool to have in your garage. It saves about $15-$20 per wheel at the shop to change the old tire, and mount a new one on it.

Its called a lucid adaptor, and you can find them on eBay in various forms. Some are complete kits while others you get all the parts and weld together yourself.

Here in Danmark its not called Harbor Freight.. Its just a unit in Biltema costing 600 DKK...

I was like...watching saying "omg, he's just gonna go in dry like that?!?!" and then i saw 37 other people commenting on the lack of lube. This is impressive that it works so well though.
@MileytheJeepV2
I like the way you bolted it to the wheel… i got one of these for $20 on marketplace and the only thing its missing is the tool to mount the tire to the rim…. I can use a prybar ive gotten 2 but man im beat ill finish it tomorrow lol

A little soapy water on the bead will make installation a lot easier.

Thanks for the video Matt. I'm not spending 300.00$ on the adapter, it looks way better than doing this without it, but still, that's large cash for a device that will just sit around most of the year.

push the tire down as you turn the big bar instead of using those clamps.....i would use a lot more lube and put the bar in the square tube AND go in the right direction with the duck bill tool....but for the most part, you showed what the tool is capable of doing and i commend you for that
