Harbor Freight Tools that don't suck

I got the 8" solid for one of the finish mowers I'm working on. Hub is centered, not offset which is what I needed.

So far, the press is fine.


The Merlin dial air chuck/gauge is acting up. Not reading tire pressure, but seems to read tank pressure instead. Not sure why.

I just bought four of these tires for a MMM dolly I am making and for only 3.99 each on sale it is a good deal.

They are an amazing bargain for the price, but they don't seem to hold air worth a darn. But then, I'm sure you have an air compressor.
Agreed. I bought four of them to build a portable cart for storing, plywood, cutoffs, etc. They went flat immediately. Slimed them and I still have to put air in them when I move it. I think if you have much load on them, they aren't worth it.

I've had good luck with those tires, but I always select the firmest available in the store. They only need air maybe once or twice a year.

Bruce, are your tires heavily loaded? I admit, I have a very heavy cart storing lots of plywood sheets and other misc lumber and it sits most of the time.

Mostly light loads; hand trucks, garden carts.

I have several of the 8" 2 on a HF concrete mixer that are working fine. Did not have to add air either. After doing some mods to the mixer it is so far pretty good for what it is, light duty. Added the 8" wheels and it moves a lot easier. Also installed a rain proof switch, the existing burned out first load using it in the rain.

I replaced mine ... before ever using it. Wheels came off a rusted out fertilizer spreader.

That "10% off any item, no exclusions coupon" says "Non-transferrable. Original coupon must be presented." Has anyone had any luck using a picture on their phone with this? If not, where did it originally appear? I don't recall seeing tis in any mailings I received.

I have always used screen shots of coupons at HF.
Just checked my receipts and yes the 10% coupon was honored from a screen shot.

I got mine through email and just printed the coupon and cut it out. Worked for me.
