Thomas , I have filled rear tires on tractors. Here is how you do it. Put a jack or blocking under the rear axle , so that the tire will not flatten when you pull out the core of the valve stem. Make sure the valve stem is at 12:00 position. Put a 55 gallon drum higher than the valve stem. Run a garden hose from the drum to the valve stem , useing a garden hose/valve stem adaptor. I have a hose bib on my drum. Make shure the hose between the drum and valve stem is strait(no kinks/dips for air to pocket). If you have an air pocket , the flow will stop. Mix your solution in the drum. Open the spicket and start filling. Trust me on this one. Go do something else. Come back the next day , and your tire will be full. You don't want to fill any higher than the valve stem. Add air , and then do the other tire. This system works good. That's how I fill mine. Or , you can call the tire man.
