Putting Fluid in Rear Tires

Thanks,

Where at in North Texas are you? I will most likely be looking at getting a place in the Panhandle in a couple of years, currently I am in Korea, and will be headed to Abilene in September.

It's been a few years, but the easiest way to put the fluid back in them tires is to go and get an adapter. The only kind I have ever used is sold by Milton and can be purchased at most Auto Parts Stores, TSC, Gebos, and I am sure the CO-OP or local feed, seed, and fertilizer stores have them also. You remove the valve stem and hook it up to the the threads on the core where you screw the valve stem on. hook the water hose to it, put the tire at about 9:00 or 2:00 o'clock position and start filling. There is a vent on the adapter to bleed the air off. Once the water starts coming out without air you should be at the required level. You could also put a funnel into the hose and pour the anti-freeze or whatever else into it if needed or required. Hope this helps.

I will look and see what I can find...I appreciate the info. We have a funnel/hose/adapter that fits over the outside of the valve stem that we use to fill our A.V. (artificial "you know what" that we use to collect our stud). I can use that but it will be slow going for sure. I downloaded a chart for tire capacities and I think it took something like 70 gallons for my size tire. I use this tractor for haying, shredding and pulling my drill, so I am mainly going to do this to maintain stability.

We live just west of Wichita Falls...quite a ways from the Pan Handle...but we are only a couple hours from Abilene.

Thanks,
