Nice heavy duty tires looks like. BTW I saw a brand new Tiger 635 on a flat bed rolling down the road Columbus, Ohio) the other day and thought of you Tim When I was at the Paul Bunyan Show last year to see you, I talked with a representative from TC and he informed me that a new 635 unit costs about $450,00.00. Logging ain't cheap that is for sure.
the vanair set up is a screw type compressor. They also have underbody compressors for anything that has a PTO, and I believe they have a compressor that is belt driven. BOSS compressors are available too. A piston type compressor no matter how many stages they have can't deliver the CFM a screw can. great videos!! Glad to see Mississippi activities! Im in Tupelo.
Damn Yall got some nice tools lol I remember me and my old boss changing. A rock truck tire with a bottle jack and wood and shovels.. literally worse day I had in the pouring rain up under that truck.. no machine lol the fella buncher came after that tire came off the rim to load it onto the trailer
New tires on the skidder,man I don't want your bills!We had an old pulp wood hauler down here,somebody asked him when would he change tires.He said he would run his till he could see the air in them LOL
Last set I bought back in November, that's the 35.5, I paid $3200 a piece for Tim and they came out of North Carolina. That was the price on the primex extreme, those you guys bought look like the ls-2 . Tire prices go from one end of the scale to the other. Get a price on a tire at one dealer and drive 50 more miles to another,I've seen a $500 or more dollar difference.
Those new tires look better on the 630e skidder. Not in logging but I see a lot of Tigercat equipment on logging jobs. More than John Deere. I think with the size of Deere and Company, they aren't as quick to innovate their logging equipment like a company like Tigercat, which is quite a bit smaller. They are also more focused than Deere. Great video as always Tim.
what you need for them frigging wheels is a stud in the top hole so when ol wheel goes on its lined up straight away , there fuckers to line up with just bolts !!! bloody good video , laters
The tire we had that came and put tires on our 992d and 992f had big arms and like two big hands to hold the tire and then they pull tire and wheel off or just took tires off with
Do you like the 35.5's because they dig better for hard ground? The 44 's are better for swampy bottom land but you guys don't log much swampy land do you?
For all the people worried about the tire with the split in it. It'll make your rearend pucker when it blows. We changed a similar on an AG floater. Got the new one on the rim and the sidewall blew I swear it jumped a foot off the ground. Great video tim
If ya got any of them old tires around and you are mean enough they make a great 3point box blade I've done a few you've got to want a rubber blade pretty bad but if can be done good video thanks
cotontop3 a hotsaw to get through the cable in the bead then a wormdrive skilsaw the rest of the way cut a few inches let the blade cool off then a few more I use it to clean cow barn twice a day it doesn't wear the concrete slick cattle don't do slick very good at all
John Deere called our place of business and did a recall service on a piece of equipment. Our voltage meter mysteriously quit working, but we don't know when. Before or after????? Water under the bridge...
That will make a huge difference , does anyone know if they have fluid in them tires? I was a fan of John Deere but not no more especially not their excavators.Or engines ,Volvo rules those departments
We bought the machine with new tires, we was not taking them off just because we wanted to. Btw, we run them till we see the air come out, sometimes we run chains and sometimes we do not, it just depends on what is going on.
When is Deere gonna learn that if they don't improve their machines they are gonna keep losing customers. All customers want is something that will get the job done without fixing little problems all the time. If they(Deere) can't keep the guys at TDK logging happy, then they have dropped the ball. If Deere cared they would be offended to see Tigercat making inroads on TDK. I see what you said about helping service people helps out. They can't say anything bad about TDK Logging. Keep up the good work on the videos. Or as Logger Wade calls it vidjas.
No expert but looks to me like the tire fellow should have a cradle to take off and install tires....just an arm chair guys perspective. would not want to tackle this too often.
www.vanair.com looks like it a rotary screw compressor. Those things are no joke and can run max pressure at 100% duty cycle. Do you know if it was gas or diesel? When i worked in a machine shop we had a massive one with a large tank. It would reach full pressure in the morning in under 5 mins for the shop. One of the other major benefits they are quite and don't vibrate.
Best line yet. “You all people that worry about stuff like that need to get out of your padded box”. Good stuff!
They have a great setup looks like they can handle just about anything.Keep up the great video's
I like that little tidbit of Poison "Talk Dirty to Me". ...... flashed back to my sophmore year in high school.
Well wear with your new skidder Tim, those new tyres really set her off, class:)
Love seeing your dad in your videos
Great video and loved seeing those big tires. That things a monster and would love to see it working some steep ground.
Great video Tim. Not going to beat tigercat equipment

Race ready..lol You and King busted some butt today..lol Great Vid. Tim
Take Care out there..
Nice video Tim keep up the good work 👍👍👍
Y’all spending some money this new year. Hopfully y’all have a great year work wise and equipment wise
I think those are what Steve Billow has on his three wheeler
That old guy with the white beard in the skidder with the tires being changed looks exactly like the father on gold rush named “Jack”
I dont even wanna try and guess how much those tires are!! another great video thanks and keep up the good work.

Good video tim those new tires look good on that 630 tell Chad you don't want that pretty yellow paint on them to get scuffed
Great stuff!!
You made the right choice buying that machine. Those tires should last a while!
Damn Yall got some nice tools lol I remember me and my old boss changing. A rock truck tire with a bottle jack and wood and shovels.. literally worse day I had in the pouring rain up under that truck.. no machine lol the fella buncher came after that tire came off the rim to load it onto the trailer
good stuff as always, thumbs up !!
I could see old Tommy trying to come back and run that new skidder...
Awesome video man.
that's a big job!
Surprised to see that size boom on a bigger truck like that. I have that exact same boom on a Ram 5500. Of course it’ll drag that Ram around.
Great video thanks for sharing
It's got to be a hard way for the Tire Guy to make a living. Great video.
New tires on the skidder,man I don't want your bills!We had an old pulp wood hauler down here,somebody asked him when would he change tires.He said he would run his till he could see the air in them LOL
GCR tire service are all over the US, we have a few up here Michigan
You could really tell the difference in height when you back her up, had a good lean on it between the two sizes. She’ll pull now.
Oh and Tim I think you found your next compressor for the house. Lol that is a haws.
Chad just couldn't wait to get those new tires muddy LOL
Good video. Thanks
Awesome video Tim. Later

GO GET THEM TIGERCATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We used the log loader to rip them off the rims. Putting them back on was a different story.

Love your beard, look like your dad with the beard
Enjoyed the "new shoes" video. Was it easier using your machine to line up the lug holes on that last tire?
what you need for them frigging wheels is a stud in the top hole so when ol wheel goes on its lined up straight away , there fuckers to line up with just bolts !!! bloody good video , laters
sometimes a $20 comealong, or even a webbed strap can help with easing a large wheel
That thing ready to eat now.
The tire we had that came and put tires on our 992d and 992f had big arms and like two big hands to hold the tire and then they pull tire and wheel off or just took tires off with
Farmers have moved away from John Deere, and went to CASE IH, Loggers are going to Tiger Cats.
Another good video, lol padded box
that's one sweet looking rig
Great video. On the tire equipment do y'all run water in the tires?
nice !
That lot looks EXPENSIVE!!!
very very expensive
Bobby Goodson video is the best
I remember back in the early nineties or late eighties I think you could buy those tires @ 1000 a pop.
How much n how long do the tires last? Thanks for cool video!
I hope what y’all prided for installation took in consideration your work in to it🤔
Do you like the 35.5's because they dig better for hard ground? The 44 's are better for swampy bottom land but you guys don't log much swampy land do you?
For all the people worried about the tire with the split in it. It'll make your rearend pucker when it blows. We changed a similar on an AG floater. Got the new one on the rim and the sidewall blew I swear it jumped a foot off the ground. Great video tim
kory league Ag floaters and skidder tires are totally different animals, even though they look similar
jvanlieu yes I'm aware of that. I was referring to the size of the tire and what it's like when they blow
Always treat the never seize with respect. U never wanna pick your nose if u get some on your finger. Pew
It is a screw compressor. I like the videos. I take it you bought the 630?
If they used the chain sling right and had a couple of dowel pins the job would be a whole lot easier.
Are they primex logmonsters 2? Nice looking tires!!
Glad you showed that Tim, interesting !
Question, are those tires filled with anything, other than air ?
Thanks for sharing and take care. 👍 👍
Just air
cotontop3
Thanks
Have to help wade out with his new toy. He all mixed up.
Maybe a dumb question but why not ad ballast to the tires
If ya got any of them old tires around and you are mean enough they make a great 3point box blade I've done a few you've got to want a rubber blade pretty bad but if can be done good video thanks
I don’t think I want one that bad lol. What do u use to cut one of those tires with?
cotontop3 a hotsaw to get through the cable in the bead then a wormdrive skilsaw the rest of the way cut a few inches let the blade cool off then a few more I use it to clean cow barn twice a day it doesn't wear the concrete slick cattle don't do slick very good at all
No matter what, there's always that one.................
John Deere called our place of business and did a recall service on a piece of equipment. Our voltage meter mysteriously quit working, but we don't know when. Before or after????? Water under the bridge...
it's going to happen, no matter what, but I wouldn't want to be the first one to gouge a chunk o' rubber out of a tire... Already did that
I know the guy push he lives in reform works for a tire company outta tuscaloosa and yea he don't play
That will make a huge difference , does anyone know if they have fluid in them tires? I was a fan of John Deere but not no more especially not their excavators.Or engines ,Volvo rules those departments
Just air
I see , great vids cotontop3 I always sit down and enjoy them
The company I work for use 848 jd
Looks Like an Expensive Day!!Why New Rims?
Those tires wouldn’t fit the rims that were on it
A lot of people wouldn't even believe what them tires cost!
They send that fellow by himself to wrangle those tires, probably not a fellow you would want mad at you!!!
Up hear in poor land we would run them tires with chains for another 3 years ahaha
We bought the machine with new tires, we was not taking them off just because we wanted to. Btw, we run them till we see the air come out, sometimes we run chains and sometimes we do not, it just depends on what is going on.
I'd give you a nickel if you came at that wheel with your Milwaukee cordless ;)
Are they both the same height tires?
Do u guys run tubeless or do u put tubes in them? And why?
Good morning tim
It’s too bad tigercat doesn’t make equipment for us in the dirt business.
Like video
love the videos but where did you get the aluminium hard hat ?
I got that hat in 1996 from baileys.
I,m thinkin the same way , couldn't get my dealer to come out for wk & 1/2 to check skip in 748 h , not happy with deere no more computerized junk !
When is Deere gonna learn that if they don't improve their machines they are gonna keep losing customers.

I wish Tigercat made zero turn lawn mowers...
Like your beard
How much did you give for your tractor
holly snowballs did you see that impact Purge that nitrous
He filled it with oil before he hooked the air line to it.
I saw jack Hoffman at "6:50"
That was my Dad.
I bet those cost a pretty penny!
So no liquid in tire for ballast?
Just air
No expert but looks to me like the tire fellow should have a cradle to take off and install tires....just an arm chair guys perspective. would not want to tackle this too often.
You guy's keeping the old tire and rims ??
No. Dealer is getting them back
What kind of Pines are you harvesting?
They are loblolly.
Thats a high dollar tire change lol
Wal mart dont have them kind of tires. Lol.

tim, how big is your shop at home?
40x60
no chain on skider to safe money ? I LOVE YOUTUB MAKE ME LOL
whats the psi on the tires ?
50 psi
Just like new tires for cars, these seem stingy on tread depth. Center of the tire looks like less than 2" treads.
Looks as frustrating as putting a back tractor tire on
