That could have ended very badly! Went to take some bales out before the storm hit. Went across the road,made a hard left turn with a round bale on the loader,looked down and had a front tire bulged WAY out. The rim had rusted and broke away at the bead. Great! Now I'm on the shoulder of the road with about a foot of tube sticking out of a tire. Didn't want to risk my life changing it right there. Had to walk past it to open the gate and was afraid of getting my legs blown off at the knees,but I made it. I limped it in throught the gate in low gear,dropped the loader and used the down pressure to lift the front end and take the pressure off,but now I see it's broken away right at the valve stem,so I had to risk loosing an arm to reach in and take the valve core out. Lug bolts were rusted in pretty bad from years in the manure,so I had to take all 6 off with a breaker bar. Just threw it on the shop floor to break it down and the snow started. What a GREAT day! Always on Sunday ain't it?
