'm REAL guilty of putting off little repairs, etc because they might turn into a longer story and cause a holdup somewhere else. End upspending much more time working around or milking the problem that the fix...
Case in point today.... Got a water tank that is always leaking where it had a flat plate welded on to be welded to the running gear. Same tank has slow leaks in both tires and has to be pumped up with my little 12v compressor before moving. Same size tires as on the frt of my tractor. Had 2 new tires/tubes for the tractor for a few weeks now (rountuit issues).....

While it waa setting up, took the frt tractor wheels off and the tank wheels. Loaded them in the car, turned on the water, and went to the neighbor kid's place. Me and his dad put the new tractor tires/tubes on the tractor rims and swapped the old ones for what was on the tank rims. Back in the car, home, and had them all mounted and had time for a beer before the tank was full...
