this is hilarious! it starts getting good at about 1:30 and keeps getting better!

oh, and by the way, can anyone explain to me how they seat the tire a 2:32 with fire??????

 

Wish my Cherokee had been that tough, Mine spent more time at the shop than it did with me.

 

The heat from the fire/tiny explosion seated the tire. Good use of a Heep.

 

That was a great video.

 

uhmmmmm makes me think.... just got a $400 jeep.... might end up doing it to my jeep after fall gopher dunes

 

haha, be sure to film it if you do!

 

Injun, how is your Jeep going to meet its maker?

 

Have to give that poor Jeep credit, it held on pretty well.

Zac, you put ether around the edge of the tire and then light it. The reaction from the ignition causes the tire to fill up with air very fast, thus sealing the bead. We do this in the Army alot (not real safe though) when we are out in the middle of nowhere. The mechanics almost always have something flammable to use. It's good in a pinch, but like I said, not real safe.

 

oh thanks, thats been buggin me.. good to know!

 

i was thinking about seeing how well it would hold up with an H1 ontop of it... i just gottafind a nice place to do so where the terrain will let 1 side on the jeep and 1 side on the ground yetnot slide slopping it too much. but not sure yet
