    This thread is not the least bit tiresome, but maybe I'm being bias.

    I know you guys are talking about saving money and all, but as mentioned earlier a good set of tire bars goes a long long way.

    As far as breaking the bead goes, we bought this tool a few years ago and it is amazing. http://www.northerntool.com/shop/too...2827_200322827

    I have changed tires on several ATV's, lawnmowers, hay wagon and tractor tires filled with calcium chloride that has not been off the rim in 50 years and this tool made short work of breaking the bead. Just spray a little PB Blaster or really soapy water around the bead and boom, you will have that bead broken in less than 5 min.

    Thanks for the link, fixer2u. I have to replace the rear tires on my 1945 Farmall M, and now I have an excuse to buy another tool. I would likely have to pay someone more to change my tires than the cost of the bead breaker, not to mention that I have many other tires to change.

    Wait. Where'd it go. That sounded fishy trip. Must have been a detour
    To answer your question "kenda 200s forks fit on a 200es?" Don't think so...but I could be wrong again

    I removed the comment. After reading post #54, I thought perhaps you found it offensive.

    Sounds like a detour down a bumpy road. I find as I get older I choose smooth sailing. Hope you have fun with your kind spirited comments. Peace to you, good buddy

    Its a few pieces, but it works the nuts, and you can make one fairly easy. Its pipe and square stock. A little welding.

    A little lube, and she pops right off. I pulled all three (two ancient wooly boogs and a newer Deestone) in about twenty minutes
