- In this video I make a tire bead breaker out of tools and material I already had on hand. I broke down several more tires later today and it was very fast as long as I stood on the tire to stop the bounce.
The yellow lab is Summer. She is very companionable and follows me everywhere. She is almost 13 years old.
Not everyone has a tractor. I usually use my backhoe attachment but I had this idea and I thought it would be a good video, especially helpful to the many folks around the world that do not have access to tractors or tire machines. I have viewers from all around the world, almost every country on earth. When I was much younger I had to scrounge around for used tires and I could not afford to pay for the tires to be mounted. I wish I had thought of this idea back then. - กีฬา
The spring is softening the hammer impact. A solid slide hammer with no spring would likely be more effective in my opinion.
I am a little late to the game, since I just discovered Ole' Mars' videos. It's good to see someone else trying things that may not work for the sport of it. My dog also enjoys watching the entertainment I provide, as yours do. I learned through the school of hard knocks to roll my tires under my truck bumper and use a hydraulic jack and 4x4 block under the bumper to pop beads. I realize I need to get one of those fence pounders instead of using a sledge hammer on posts around the place. I think I will get the one without the spring...
This idea could work perfectly when the rim isn’t resting on rubber but something solid. Tailor a rim size 2x4 to suspend the rim and stand on the rim while pounding.
Nice tool. Yes, I was watching the rim bounce as you were striking it due to the other side of the tire.
A 2x4 under the rim will fix that OR stand on it as you did!! 👍🏼
Well Mars, you do so many things right that I hesitate to make a suggestion, but here goes. Two words... Road Service :-)
Thanks for the video, you made me cheer for you to make the bead break. I never seen it done with a t post hammer before.
Use the bucket force off the tractor 🚜👍
That was interesting to watch. Thanks for uploading.
I use the loader on my Kubota. Place tire on cement and tip of cutting edge on bead and push down with loader bucket. Gravy!
I usually use my backhoe.
Nice video! LOL Thanks for sharing friend.
I kept telling you to kick it over against the loader bucket so it wouldn't keep squirtin away from you. 😀
I'm wore out watching you over work yourself to death when have a car in the background that can do all the work for you , get a board run over it😂😂😅
Hi MARS, I have used a scissor jack and a couple of wood blocks to break the bead on some tires. A bumper jack with foot plate works also. Use the weight of the vehicle at a solid frame or bumper location. Lube the area around the rim. Place the tire / rim under the vehicle with the block on top of the rubber next to the rim and extend the scissor jack till the bead pops. Beats a coronary ! Thanks for the vid....JK
I would shorten the pole up, so instead of pounding at a 45 degree angle it would be a 90 degree angle and have someone else stand on the tire. Thanks for posting.
I remember breaking the bead by driving the car over the tire, the weight of the car over the tire usually broke the bead.
Great job well done. I love changing tyres, a weird hobby I know but I love the satisfaction I get from it. Try this next time, instead of concentrating in one spot, try and move it round say a third of the circumference, back and forth 3 " a time, back and forth the same segment a little at a time, dont bang so hard that it gets trapped between tyre and rim - overall less effort is required
I actually really like this idea so thank you for making the video. I got a set of tires to break down. I’m gonna try using my T-post pounder with no spring, I think it’ll speed it up. Awesome idea though.
Love your dogs!
Good Video, lots to learn here
The tire sidewall is cushioning your blows. Stand on the wheel so it compresses to a solid surface, take the bounce out. Cut more off the post so your post driver is at a comfortable height.
Knock-Off Tyre Pliers for $50 works miracles... It broke all 4 of my Blazer's tire beads in just seconds... 2 different positions in one occasion , but it usually does it in a single press. Try it out... You'll never try any other manual technique :)
Nice
Glad to see you back in the video game, always like your stuff, but cripes, that looked exhausting. Keep 'em coming Mars.
It was too much like work at first but I once I started standing on the wheel it was much easier.
A hydraulic jack under the tow bar with edge of jack base on the tyre near wheel rim edge. Make sure valve removed from tyre. That should pop your tyre from the bead.
I was close to having a heart attack just watchin' you. LOL. Use your tractor bucket to break the bead.
If you put a block of wood under the rim it will come right off the tire is acting like a shock absorber a block of wood will make it solid it needs to support the rim only.
I see you have a really nice john Deere bead braking front end loader.
Chris
lol
Perfect no maker
I would not be able to do it the way you did. There are many less physical ways to break the bead. thank you for your time and effort..work smarter..
I used to do it that way but that's heading for a heart attack, I modified hydraulic jack works a treat. love your dogs
Good day from Ontario. Interesting, but I have serious asthma. I use handyman jack under truck, but if rust I have to change 2 - 3 times, but with hot hot weather we are having I think I will stay with my way.
But spring in post pounder, I see it jumps up quicker . Anyways thanks for showing.
Everybody talking about breaking it with your front end loader I've never had much luck at that, always sounded like a good idea but I never could get it to work
killing your self doing it that way when you clearly have a tractor with a front end loader on to it smash it down with the edge of the blade

mars1952 ohhh
most people have a 2X6 and a vehicle. make a ramp and drive up
why don't you raise that green tractor bucket & to break it loose? look's easier to me!
He explained "why not" in the the answer to the first comment, ^^^ I thought the same thing you did. -- And I'm sure probably every person that watched this vid. I actually thought I was smarter than the average bear! LOL!
I had an old Gator tire I wanted to put an inner tube in and tried a few things to get it off. I had not thought of the post driver. I had the most success with a 20ton jack and putting the tire between two 6x6 fence posts in an H-brace. I used a small pusher block to spread the load and and a short piece of 6x6 to make up the gap. It broke the bead loose with much less effort. But I decided it was going to be too hard to get the tire off and back on. So had the local tire shop do it. $10/tire was worth it.
Beautiful dogs..
+dbest1a Vlogs Thanks. They are both gone now. It is very sad that dogs have such short lives.
+mars1952 so sad to hear , I know the feeling all to well. It's been a long time since I have had a dog again.
If you had the rim set on a solid block of wood, that would take the bounce out of the wheel when you hammer on it, and increase the shock to the bead. I would just dive over the edge of the tire with the rear wheel of the tractor.
The car I drive is my bead breaker, and a clean asphalt road
I made one similar to yours using my post driver -- I think the problem is that the bought version hits the rod at the tip, where our versions hits at the far end of the "post". This makes a lot of the force be absorbed, rather than being transmitted to the tip. I wound up getting the hydraulic tool, works great. ...but I think I will look thru my junk pile and try to make a slide hammer that uses the internal rod -- that would put the force at the tip of the tool -- oh yeah, and need a little soap makes this work much better
Ok this is an old video but this might help someone. To stop the tire from bouncing(and absorbing all your effort) lay the rim on a couple of 2x4's or 2x6's. That rubber tire is doing what rubber tires do. Bounce.
Your the tractor loader bucket
Putting soapy water around rim or better varsol really helps.
use dish liquid around bead first and it will work
I have a commercial version of that which I got with an old manual tire changer. They are mostly useless. One problem you have, here, is that the wheel is not ridgedly anchored, in other words "everything is bouncing." It would be like trying to nail into a piece of thin wood flopping all over. If I were you I would search and Google for lever type breakers. There's a few using nothing more than a piece of 4x4 and a floor jack.
I would use the tractor bucket edge.
buzzsah I almost hooked up the back hoe to break down these tires but then I came up with the idea to make this slide hammer.
your method would work great if you would grind the working end of the pipe smooth of any sharp edges, and then use some lube where you are contacting the rubber..... the whole premise is that the tool needs to be able to slip down near the rim to break the bead, because if you dont get right near the rim, the sidewall gets bent in and it actually tightens the bead so its even harder to remove... AND, the lube will creep in to the bead on every stroke so it will help it slip over the hump on consecutive blows.... in addition, you NEED to support the rim so it doesnt bounce, as most of the energy is being absorbed by the bouncing of the rim.
So if you use a log splitter it should work
I use a 20ton press with a suitable length of wood + soapy water
I give the idea an A for effort looks like a lot of hard work especially if it was a 90° day!! 😰
Does anyone realize how ironic it would be to die of a heat attack doing it the hard way when you have a FRONT END LOADER two feet away from your work? Your dog must have been in agony watching this thinking" the loader, use the freaking loader!! I Don't know cpr or 911!".
I was hoping you were going to stand on the wheel....the bounce was absorbing some of the force.....putting wheel against a wall would also help as its jumping away from you again loosing some force.
The other thing.....go right around the whole of the wheel.....not just one section.
But gread methed....I take my hat off to you Sir.
Well ,,,,,I see no need to comment on the loader bucket gathering cobwebs 😄
I always use waterproof marine grease on trailer tire rim bead area. You can thank yourself years later!! ps. An old Manual tire changer ( totally manual) is cheap these days
No, he's trying to break the bead, you can't use anything until you break the bead.
Use dish soap on the edge tire&rim. Great idea though
Holy crap. Lol
Use the bucket on your tractor
You have to lubricate around the tire rim with 10 w 40 or water with liquid soap.
Yes, everything works better when it is well lubed.
or just walk on the tire jumping a bit , soap water on first , be heavy or carry heavy things some say
I thought that was a shoulder fired improvised cannon! Wait, you have a front loader? Break the bead with that, right?
+walter kersting I also have a small backhoe that is great for breaking tires down. But as I was setting the detachable backhoe up for the job I had the idea for this tool and thought it would make a decent video.
Just put a little diesel for lube and giver
I have a slide hammer - the expensive one and it works fine.. BUT! You need to have something solid under the wheel bead so the tire doesn't bounce! It can't bounce like it is in the video. Also - tire lube!!! Joy detergent in a spray bottle. Little things make all the difference!
I learned that when if I stood on the wheel while breaking the bead there was much less bounce. I show the improved technique in this video th-cam.com/video/NNfHEfYgFoE/w-d-xo.html
You got it! I had to learn that by the same method ---- I beat on it until I realized that it can't be this hard or else no one would buy a slide hammer bead breaker! With tires, technique is everything. If you ever get a chance to go to a busy truck tire place, watch the guys use a tire hammer to dismount semi truck tires.. Its amazing how skilled those guys get with those hammers.
Yup!
is that dog deaf? he doesn't even lift an ear when you start slide hammering. pretty dog tho
Nunya Bidniz The dog is old but not deaf. She has followed me around while I work since she was a puppy and she is used to loud noises.
next time put a block under the rim so it doesn't bounce with the tire
Why not just use the sledgehammer laying on the ground to break the tire bead? If you're worried about damaging the rim or tire then just use some WD40 and slide a short piece of radiator hose over the one end of the sledgehammer.....
you didnt lubricate first the tire edges before you pump.
I use bucket on tractor to push down an break it loose
be surprised if the tire ain't all gashed up ?
Put something under the wheel so it doesn't bounce.
i had enough of this video at 4:00.
Does everyone who says use the front end loader not realize that he’s trying to show those of us who don’t own a loader another way of doing this? There’s more than one way to skin a cat and he’s just offering one of the many
Remove the spring.!!
And there you have it.... nothing.
until you stood on it it seemed all your effort was just flexing the tire. then you pinned it down and it came right off.
why don,t you just use the bucket on your tractor? I use mine all the time to break all tires .
Who is your pal?
buzzsah The yellow lab is Summer. She is very companionable and follows me everywhere. She is almost 13 years old.
mars1952
She's a good looking old girl.
Dog saying, what the fuk you at
Common sense says take it to tire shop
Common sense says to read the description.
try a c'clamp and sqeeze the tire
beutler1974 I have some c-clamps that would be big enough but they do not have enough depth to get close enough to the bead. I broke down several more tires today and it was very fast as long as I stood on the tire to stop the bounce.
nice tried , look like didnt work..need tire bead break ..it cost 100 us and the job done
You should just lay it on the ground and either sit the bucket of that tractor on it and press down on it or run over the tri with the tractor of truck. Effortless
Read the description.
Too much bull work, use a hydraulic Jack and ratchet strap , plenty of videos on the process , save your strength !
Lol
Don't use the tractor ...it would cut into your fumblin' around time.
go to a garage
You guys are working too hard
Too much physical work.
