Knowledge about changing a tire is damned useful. Tried it unsuccesfully the first time in 2000. Did it successfully in 2006, thank goodness, since it was July 4 and I was invited to a cookout.
You’re talking about changing the tire on a rim right? Same rim, new tire. My Mexican neighbors do it all the time, don’t even have a tire machine, just long tire levers. Have to do the flash-pop trick to get the bead to seat on large tires sometimes.
“Knowledge about changing a tire is damned useful.”
I can’t do work like that and I’m not strong like a man and that is a deficit in my preps. Maybe I need to look at single websites and put on an “ad” for a male who is strong and can change a tire and do other work like that including having electronic knowledge and has good weapons and knows how to use them. I have a fine Remington shotgun and rifle and they are too heavy for me to use. I don’t even have ammo for either one and I should have.
This would be a paid job for this fellow, not a singles thingy because he needs to be single so he doesn’t have a family to help in an emergency as that is when I would need him. How else am I going to fix this deficit problem as I can’t order one from a survival store.
