    I've done quite a few split rims too for our container chassis customers. I wouldn't let anyone else eff with them. Had a few short pieces of chain to hold them.

    I just bought some used rims and kept 4 or 5 mounted and ready to go.

    I was several years into working on trucks before ever changing a tire. I left Freightliner and went to work for Curtis Lloyd at exit 20.

    I was in the middle of pullin a head, and the shop foreman asked me to change a tire. I looked at him sideways.

    Anyways, I got very good at them when I went out on my own, along with many other things "diesel mechanics" don't do.

    All good, I like variety. Except I really hate engine work anymore

    There must be some sort of stipulation that when you apply for an Ohio drivers license you need to leave your brain at home every time you get behind the wheel.

    Start doin a bunch and you wont be fat no more! :D

    And since you're spoon feeding me info on the seat, my seat and your username are one and the same, so Im thinkin I just need to get a different brand seat. I think your set up is exactly what I want, since Im 6ft with long legs.
