all I can say is when was the last time you saw a Chev, Ford or Dodge take that much continuous abuse and *still* fly through the air like that.

 

don't say the General Lee. that doesn't count :D

HOLY MOTHER!!! That's bad @$$, I just hope it was an 84-86 V6 with a np207! ll Parts are good to have, but man that was awesome and boy did that thing take some abuse!!!

Great vid!

 

What was the guy doing with the flammable liquid on the tire? Looked like it seated it on the rim quickly, but I've never seen anything like that before.

[87manche]

that's an old trick. A bit o butane or hairspary and you can pop a tire back onto the bead.

it's not entirely safe, but I can say that I've done it in a pinch,

[Oizarod115]

its a uh.. redneck shade-tree method of re-seating a tire on the bead.

 

only for use with sh%$TY tires or in a pinch like he said.

[JOMJ87]

Eyther (??spelling??) Works good as well along with any highly flammable spray. I may have done it a time or 2. ;)

Damn. I had a sweet pic of inflating a swamper with fire, but it went bye-bye with the harddrive of my laptop. :( Damn.

swamper+ether+long flaming stick=tire back on bead.

Is it really that sketchy? I've never seen the consequences of this gone wrong.

[JOMJ87]

Ever seen a blow out happen??? Just add alot of flames and peopple running for there lives. Can be very funny. Once in awhile the wheel will bend and crack some too.

Some of us go wheeling with a C02 tank and have zero problems reseating a bead by removing the air stem innards and using an air gun (flows more volume than a regular tire inflater).

 

But on the other hand, fire is cool. :D

well, it is an explosion too much fuel and the tire will pop, and likely throw some heavy chunks of rubber.

it's not recommended.

I've done it once on an ATV tire, no spares on an atv. I can't say I would even try it on a large swamper or something.

I worked for a tire shop and used it on semi tire and tractor tire before I started one of the guy used a little to much and it went high enough to touch a power line. The shop actually had a air pig set up with a tube on it that would release about a 125 psi all at once alot safer until some one put a potato in it and we never seen that potato again.

I can use my quickair I to seat a bead. Speed has nothing to do with it.
