    Dale do you have OTR A/C and if so do you have a different belt tension cylinders for the fan and the a/c compressor?

    Answer...I don't have any auto air belt tensioner thingy's, I'm a real man and use wrench's!

    I did not mean to say Smart Very Smart.... I meant A poor man has poor ways.

    Wow Roger, are those tires rubber or plastic?

    Roger,

    I put the polished side of the wheel down on carpet so as not to scratch or scuff any of the pretty. I take off and put on from the back of the wheel.

    I never feel like I should suggest ideas to you and Jon, since you guys are the go-to guys.

    PS...I wished I had your irons

    Dale, the reason we know so much is because we screwed up so much.

    Tire irons were from Gemplers.

    You can mess up on the aluminum wheels putting tires on and off. They are easy to work on. But I know two guys that can tell you for sure there is only one way to remove and replace the tires on those steel wheels.

    Someday Roger will put on a seminar about mounting Chinese tires with a Bobcat.

    I can't talk, since I just bought a chinese tire for the tag. I had one that was really wearing bad, so I put a new R12 tire on. $285 for chinese and around $425 for the big M

    If that tire blows I'm never going cheap again.

    Dale, Maybe something to be looked at from the other side. If the Chinese brand is good you will not pay too much again for the M brand.

    The bad part is when they finally put all the competition out of business. I hope we won't have to War with them. How will we get our supplies if they cut us off.

    Default Chinaman Installs tires in record time!

    OZ: They look like the hard plastic you see on toys, but they didn't cost that much so they are rubber with tire wet dressing.

    Dale et al: I have to pass the credit to Jan, my new best friend for polishing my rims, and to A1-Jon for loading the tires in his truck and driving from knoxville to a deep remote location in the hills, bringing his tire irons and installing the new meats on the bus while I watched and sipped Iced tea. He ducked his head when I snapped the photo, but that is A1 working his magic with those tire irons. What a guy!

    Life is good!
