Current status of the tire change on the IHC. Hoping for the following (in order):
1. The blocks that the truck is on manage to hold on the remarkably uneven ground. I’ve got the truck about as level as I can get it, but am still going to worry about it until I get the tires/rims back on.
2. The repair center I came across on Friday can figure out the removal of the old tires from the rims and the installation of the new tires.
A little additional info that came out during Operation Tire Change: the old tires are in rough shape because they're _old_. The truck came into the family in '84 and was painted black then. It was originally a Red Baby. Beneath the clamps for the tires was the original red paint, so the old tires were on when it was painted....putting them in late 70's - early 80's.
