Friends: 2 | Re: Vavle stem replacement I recommend to use one of these tire changer from HarborFreight, only for $50, instead of running over with a 2x4. Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices |

Friends: 14 | Re: Vavle stem replacement I could see that if you're off in the boonies, the 2x4 would be a useful trick. If you also had a new valve stem and an airpump  The strap to seat the bead is a neat idea. Maybe a year ago, Hobbit posted a warning about valve stems that were cracking (poor manufacture). Good idea for anybody to take a peak at theirs to confirm they are still nice. Of course I think that all car drivers ought to pay way more than the typical attention to their tires. |
