| + | Here is another idea using a bottle jack under a truck frame and only takes a few minutes. ((tigercreek of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=1627574&highlight=swingarm+races)) \\ | ||
| + | Lay the tire under the frame of your vehicle. (Use a board or ground). \\ | ||
| + | Place the bottle jack on the tire just off the edge of the rim (don't let it touch the rim on either side). \\ | ||
| + | Align the top of the bottle jack with vehicle frame. Start pumping - break bead - flip over and do the other side. | ||
