lil overkill, but 🤷‍♂️ #skidsteer #newholland

What happens here

With the flat tire removed and the trailer still elevated, the new or spare tire is carefully positioned onto the wheel studs of the trailer's axle. The lug nuts are then hand-tightened to secure the tire in place. Once the new tire is adequately secured, the skid steers are slowly and carefully lowered in unison, bringing the trailer back down onto its wheels. Finally, the lug nuts should be fully tightened to the manufacturer's specifications using a torque wrench for safety and proper fitment.

Goal: Mount the replacement tire and safely return the trailer to the ground.
