You did great job and make it look so easy. Sure you have done many of these and great job of perfecting. Smart idea using receiver to hold tire changer. Thanks for sharing!

Nice tips. I may have to pick one of these up.

Fixing to do all 4 of mine the drop hitch is a great idea for my truck I think I'll extend mine up to about waist high then mount my changer to it to save bending down working

Harbor freight used to sell a hitch to mount a vise on. You can bolt it to that hitch if you don't have a welder. This is a tip for viewers without a welder.

that's a cool idea with the hitch mount as a platform as the clamp to workbench or mount in vise is awkward . i'll give it a try. interesting taking them off somewhat easy but putting a new tire on is a bear .

I had thought about the receiver set up also for one, no bolting or clamping, and toss on shelf when not in use

When putting the tire back on the tool just spins. It’s not biting the tire or wheel anywhere is just spins forever. I’ve tried a million different things, soapy water, WD40 I just don’t understand how to get any leverage on the tire to pop the second half back on. Any advice?

Nice ideas here. Although it seems like the nice factory paint/powder coat gets chewed up pretty good with this tool. I wonder what the factory uses to put tires on without damage to the wheel finish.
