 +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.
