I have used my bubble balancer a lot... It's as accurate as you can get, more accurate than a lot of the machines some shops have. The best part about having that balancer is you can rotate the tire on the wheel before you set the beads to get the balance super close before adding any weights. I put the wheel on the balancer before setting the beads and check it. I really need one of those duck bill rigs.

That is a great tip, thanks!

Thanks for sharing the video! I have this same exact setup including the bubble balancer. There's some videos on CZcams on how to mod the bubble balancer by drilling out the hole that the pin sits in so just the tip is touching and it makes it very sensitive. Highly recommend doing that mod!

You're supposed to lube the underside to...... I'm getting ready to learn this stuff too thank you for the illustration

Nice, l’ve considered buying one myself.

[@MrJayDM]

It took me a few times to figure out how to make it work more efficiently. I can get a tire off in about 2 minutes now. I think its well worth the investment, but NOW I have no idea what to do with my old tires. I guess I need to find a dumpster somewhere or drop them off at a tire shop after they close...lol

Did you remove the metal insert for the duck bird and just bolt the plastic to the mod arm?

Where did you get the duck bill?
