Is your air compressor fully charged? Looks like you address at the point where you just need to get air in quicker than it can come outBeen wrestling with the bead for 45 minutes. I think you need 5 hands to do this.
Hey. What's that stuff on the ground? We've only heard stories of it here in california.Congrats! Wow! Just Wow!
Same here! Somewhere between Ohio and Michigan... not sure they need two weeks to truck the Jeep 90 minutes away...Glad someone could add a little color here.
I’m dying not knowing where mine is. JC just says eta between today and 27th. It’s not at the dealer. So somewhere between Ohio and MD.
It’s beautiful!!! Congratulations! That all white is stunning!It’s even more breathtaking in person
That looks amazing! I ordered all white as well with the sky top. Looking at yours makes me even more impatient in waiting for mine. Congrats on the new ride!It’s even more breathtaking in person
Setting it up as a beadlock. Bead is outside the “rim”. Trying to get it to sit flat on the external “bead” of the wheel is the tricky part. You have to stretch the bead of the tire over the wheel. It’s a pain in the dick. It feels like the tire is too small for the wheel. (I know this isn’t the case but it’s the best way to describe it) when you try to spoon it on eventually the other side just pops off. It seems like you need to pin down the bead in 5-6 places as you work your way around the tire. I just don’t have enough hands to do it.Is your air compressor fully charged?

Maybe the ring with a few bolts?... back seat driving is my speciality....It seems like you need to pin down the bead in 5-6 places as you work your way around the tire. I just don’t have enough hands to do it.
Ha! I had the same thought and tried it earlier without much luck. I was 90 minutes into the process without anything to show for it. Starting to get frustrated, and decided to walk away for the time. I’ll snag my old man at some point this weekend and have him hold a couple screwdrivers around the rim as I try to stretch it on there. I’ve got plenty to keep me busy, and I learned the hard way to walk away when I start to get frustrated. I’ve made some stupid mistakes just from being mentally fatigued.Maybe the ring with a few bolts?... back seat driving is my speciality.
Congrats - looks fantasticIt’s even more breathtaking in person
