OK, since we are on the tire/lug nut scene...
A bit embarrasing here, but is there an easy way to change TIRES on one of these
things...I have a dual axle '62 Overlander and I need three more tires, plus someday I
will have to use my spare, I'm sure. I changed out an old tire last summer and used up
a whole dictionary of expletives trying to get the sucker ON. Finally had to "kneel"
the front end, put 56 stacked 2x4s under my floor jack and last but not least let the
air out of the tire....all to get the wheel and studs to match levels. Never again in
95+ temps and near 100% humidity...nearly made me give up the Airstream there AND THEN
AT THE TRUCK STOP! So either I learn how to do this properly or I win the lotto and
hire some Gorilla full time so I can avoid this nightmare. As I don't play the lotto,
(and that greatly decreases my chance of winning), I'd really appreciate some help on
this extremelly vexing issue.
Sweating just thinking about doing it again,
Ralph
