Wood Splitter Breaks Tire Beads

Wood Splitter Breaks Tire Beads WOODLOT EQUIPMENT Miscellaneous 29-5-38 Wood splitters make good bead breakers, says B. Roy Landis, Cooks, Mich. He got the idea when working on an old tire with a stubborn bead. He tried a jack and a pry bar, and even considered using a shop press - but the tire was too big. Finally, he put some wood blocks in his wood splitter and the tire in between. "It popped on the first try," Landis says. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, B.
