Trail fix; setting the bead

Cool video of a guy on the trail setting the bead on a tire with WD40 and a lighter. http://www.break.com/index/interesting- ... ethod.html

I'll stick with CO2 but it's kind of cool.

Ha, Ha, I had to do that the last time I was out wheeling for I guy that popped his front tire off the bead.

It is very dangerous though.
You need enough to pop the bead, but too much and the tire can explode!

I was just showing those videos to my son today. Those Arctic trucks are pretty sweet.

They sure are sweet. Man I?d settle to get my hands on a new stock Patrol; diesel, solid front axle, etc.
