A do-it-yourself -
You are driving down the road hauling horses in your twin axle horse
trailer. Suddenly your horse trailer tire goes flat. We have all faced
this situation if we haul horses.
There is an easy way to solve this problem without unloading your horses
on the highway, endangering you and your livestock. You also don't have
to fight an uncooperative jack.
Cut some boards in lengths, using the guidelines below, tire changer aid
block nail together and you have a great tire changer aid. To use it,
set your portable tire changer pad ahead or behind the tire that is _not
_flat. Loosen the lug bolts on the flat tire so they are not tight, then
back your rig up or drive it forward to place the good tire on the
wooden pad. Block the wheels on the opposite side of the trailer. Remove
your flat tire, replace with spare, unblock the opposite wheels, and
drive off the pad a few feet to finish tightening your lug bolts.
This homemade pad has the advantages of being fast and inexpensive to make at home and can serve dual duty as a hitch leg pad or even a door step.
The pad shown in the pictures was made from scrap lumber. The base is
three pieces of 2"x6" lumber, 25" long. The middle layer is four 2"x4"
pieces 17" long laid crosswise of the base, and the top layer is four
2"x4" pieces 16" long, laid crosswise of the middle layer (the same
direction as the base layer). The sizes of the wooden pieces can be
adjusted to your particular needs or the availability of lumber.
