Make sure these bolts are tight!!
They always work loose and snap off!!
Buy longer ones and put nuts on the back of the hubs!!

Just one of the joys of living in the Matanuska valley and perhaps the best hunting area in all of the USA.

I'd gladly trade a few flats and some broken lugs just for having that view!

Yep, try to focus on the positive. The tire's only flat on the bottom. The other 80% of the tire looks great!

Yep, "3 in 1" machine oil works good...

Yep, that's about the size of it....:)

Thanks.:)

You do realize just how grateful you should be to live with this as a view?? Don't know about rest of the TBNers, but I'm jealous!

I had to do a similar repair on the farmer I hunt on's tractor a few years ago. He was mowing in the woods when one of the rear tires popped off and rolled down the hill leaving 4 broken bolts behind...
