HELLO ALLL

my buddy showed me some pics of a DIY tire changer and we made one up..

i used all OEM honda parts too.. minus center pipe..threaded rod and nut...

used integra ROTOR as base.. 14" civic steely used PR3 cam gear to center the rod in wheel.. and we welded LS head bolts to nut to make wing nut...lol







this was cool to see the oil boil out of cam gear..




and well i had to get artsy pic with my baby in background..lol



PIC of tool in USE...

 

wow 200 plus views and love... lol

 

im trying to figure out how it works lol

 

pretty sweet dude!

i lol'ed when i saw the cam gears

caution: sharp parts on steely

 

X2!

 

x3 haha and the cam gear

 

u break the bead using another tool....(2x4's aTTACH TO WALL ON HINGE...LOL)....

u spin wheel down on the center and then u change a tire like u would on car..

 

thats so ghetto.

i like having free access to a real tire changer (drifting and working with FormulaD has it perks, lol)

 

I love it thanks for posting , I love seeing stuff people make rather than god damn turbo manifolds , which got old 5 yrs ago.

That's a motorcycle tire. **** you didn't need half of that stuff. I use a spade shovel to break the bead loose and tire levers to remove the tire. Do that right on the garage floor. We've probably changed 50+ tires this way. Back tires don't last long on a stunt bike.

 

I still use a machine on our bike tires...
Race slicks are stiff as **** and i'd rather impale myself with a tire spoon than do it by hand
