I read back and found who you guys were talking about and I found the website.
I come back over here to ask a couple questions......
and WOW, you guys have all the info posted already, you guys are awsome.

So, my questions......

I found the tire changer for $34.99....... anybody think that is a decent one?
Beside that changer, what else do I need? Any other tools required?

I'm thinking:

    Also, any good ideas on how I can pound out the studs on my LT80's hubs?
    I have a couple thoughts, but wondered if any of my heros out here have any good ol' tricks?
    I need to get 'em out to replace them with longer bolts.

    Thanks Guys

    all i use is the $35 'portable' tire changer from harbor freight to break the beads, then the long tool that comes with it to help get the tire off the rim with a couple basic tire irons... a little practice & it gets easier. i use bees wax for mounting. i'd be happy to show you sometime. i've done about 20 so far.

    the $8 atv bead roller/breaker was useless to me when i tried it. i'll let you use mine if you want... it might work better on smaller wheels, all mine are 9" & 10"

    on the 80 hubs try a deep well socket on the back then pound them into it on a bench.... if they're like my old 'zuki hubs that'll do it maybe put it in a vice?

    I had a Trenga racing rear brake on mine. It worked well, but was right close to 3 bills.

    Do you need me to go out to Chucky's earlier on Saturday and try and get some tables for us. I have 5 people and that means 5 tables(were big and need the room [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img].
    Hey Ray,

    If you want to do that, that would be terrific. Totally up to you......
    I wanted to try and do that, but I'm not sure what time I will get done with my daughters practice.

    Question for all you smarties out there [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

    I want to be able to take the tires on/off my kids quads.
    Any ideas on where I can get the right stuff to do that?
    I know I've seen people talk about it before somewhere out here.
    I'd like to find somewhere to get it today or tomorrow of possible?
    Doesn't that place you guys were talking about the little trailers have tire changers???

    Thanks a Bunch
    A socket/ratchet combination should get those pesky tires off that 4 wheeler.

    Marysville Wal-mart sent me packing. The kid claimed they quit doing ATV tires.

    Well, as for Hollywood, she has almost no cartilage in her knees, it's almost bone on bone, which causes massive pain when squating and the only thing they can do for her is total knee replacement, so for some squating is not an option. I couldn't imagine squating with knee problems, I feel very lucky having good knees an outie for brush business [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

    Hey Happa,
