Tire Turner Turns Tires Inside-Out
A few years ago FARM SHOW published an article on my homemade tire turner which turns tires inside-out. The inside-out tires make good cattle and hog feeders since there's no longer any place for feed or water to hide. I cut a used 38-in. tractor rim in half and fitted it with three steel pull cables.

Tire Turner Turns Tires Inside-Out TIRES/WHEELS Miscellaneous 24-5-36 A few years ago FARM SHOW published an article on my homemade tire turner which turns tires inside-out. The inside-out tires make good cattle and hog feeders since there's no longer any place for feed or water to hide. I cut a used 38-in. tractor rim in half and fitted it with three steel pull cables. I made hold-down hooks out of a wooden wagon wheel. I cut off the top bead and then pulled the tractor rim up through the tire using a winch mounted on the back of my home-built 4-WD tractor. The tire is held to the ground by the hold-down hooks that are anchored to the ground.
The only difference now is that instead of using a boom on back of my tractor to pull the tractor rim up through the tire, I use a block and tackle that attaches to a stationary wooden beam high off the ground. I attach a length of cable from the block and tackle up to my tractor, then pull ahead with the tractor to hoist the tractor rim up through the tire. I'm able to turn tires ranging from 26 to 38 in. dia. with the one wheel rim. (Fred Marolf, 7607 100st SW, Motley, Minn. 56466 ph 218 397-2337).
