All round, this is as good as it gets. Never fails. (the operator sometimes does)

You get arrested and put on a register for that in many countries these days

like said before a piece of angle iron has never failed me, I have a piece that i have welded a piece of steel bar onto makes it easier to hold onto and gives you some leverage when you need it.. also found that on most rear tyres you can get one of the old red lad rover jacks in between the cab/body and the tyre to push the inner bead off.

Has anyone bought one of those vevor hydraulic breakers? Quite a few on eBay, mostly I use a gurt hammer and a cranked lever but I'm just doing the second puncture in a week on the west spreader and the inside bead be a real git

No-one using those glue in plugs for normal punctures? and not taking the tyre off

 

[Slowcow]

Would normally but this is tubed

Try going back to the 'good old days' when we had tubes to contend with and rusty wheels.

We have a tiptop bow tie kit which works very well on tractor tyres.
