Best Tire Bead Buster Ever – And You Probably Own One
Yep, this the best garden tractor tire bead buster ever and you or one of your neighbors already have one. Check out the picture, it’s a trailer tongue jack! I just ran the jack down to the tire, gave the tire a kick to get the jack plate under the rim lip and cranked away. To any sceptics thinking this was going to be an easy tire to break down, WRONG! I installed a new tire last fall and could not get the bead to seal so I attempted to seal it with 3M Black Weatherestrip Adhesive, did not seal so I just left it over the winter (needless to say not a good idea). Well, it hardened over the winter and what a job it was turning in to breaking down by hand so I came up with the tongue jack idea. I had to work my way all around the rim to get it to release. Quite the mess to clean up too with a wire brush (see picture of wheel/tire). Installed tube and remounted tire (used flat washer held on with stem extension so I would not loose valve stem in wheel when mounting tire (see picture). Hope these ideas help you out next tire change!

Good work!!! And, extra points for using an existing item (and not having to buy more stuff). I will definitely try this out.

Years ago to break a tyre bead we just drove over it
To re-seat bead we used a strap and ratchet , strap around middle of tread and ratchet away, it will squeeze the bead out to the rim. Easy Oz

Nice. I break the beads on all my tires; truck, tractor, riding mowers, etc, using a bottle jack between the tire and under the frame of the truck, works great but I may have to give the trailer jack a shot now that I have a trailer.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
