flat tire

[geo]

on 05/02/15 had a flat tire in drive way, good place to have one, beats out on the road
got the jack out and was getting to use tire wrench and breaker bar a 3 piece breaker bar
put it on lug nut and it was on really tight bent beaker bar
had to get a piece of pipe about 3' long one piece work great
just a thought for if you are in van

Always good to be prepared. I keep a Milwaukee M18 Torque wrench rated at 1250 Ft lbs. and a torque stick rated at 475 Ft lbs for tightening. I am not in a van but a straight truck and it has saved me twice while out on the road. For vans, I think the same set up with a torque stick rated for your wheel spec's would be a useful addition to your arsenal. When I am at home, I do my own rotations and this set up allows me to do a complete 10 tire rotation in less than 1 hour.
