[QUOTE="Smokin Joe, post: 402108, member: 18130"] Phillip, I'll see if I can scan it and then email it to you. Basically, she puts the tube into the tire before remounting, slightly inflated unless it is a heavy duty tube then no air. Then she pulls the tube out of the tire by grabing the valve stem so that it is protruding. Then with the rim up off the ground on a changing stand (I suppose a trash can would do also) she holds the tire horizontal with the valve stem at the 12 o'clock position and angles it onto the rim while simultaneaously getting the protruding valve stem into the rim hole. Then she grabs the valve stem nut out of her mouth (forgot to say ya gotta put there first (unless ya got 3 hands ;) ) and get it started before the valve stem slips out. Then she manouvers the tire bead to get it over the rim lock (she states that you need the rim lock and valve stem holes right next to each other for this method to work, so you may need to drill anouther hole in your rim and fill the old one with some type of silicone seal or whatever). Sounds too simple to be true. :debil: Joe [/QUOTE]
