Tire Repair on the road

[cruiserpilot]

There is one thing I forgot to mention. Don't know if you all remember 'Crazy Carpets'? The blue spawn of hell that has no
redeeming features aside from no control on a downhill slide, followed by mild concussions. I carry one under my carpet in the back.
It has many uses, something to lie on in the mud under the truck being primary job. I also have seen pieces used inside between
tire and tube as a load spreading device on a torn side wall. So that is its other job, to be there just in case.

i certainly remember crazy carpets. They were/are insane! Those are some great uses for them though!

Hehe, I had to look those up, never knew that's what it was called. Good to know about its other uses.

I have made a decision on the TyrePliers. There is a great little company down in Prescott, Adventure Trailers who have them
in stock. I purchased my NL fridge from them and have also had great service from them.
I will order the TyrePliers as well as a repair kit they have, Extreme Outback with some upgrades that I like.

I realize this is pretty expensive, but so is insurance. So long as a Toyo MT doesn't come apart completely, ,
the Dempster is a long drive and I don't want to walk.

FYI, I send my stuff to Express Air in Victoria, they have an address in Blaine. When the parcel arrives they bring it to
Victoria Airport so I can just walk to customs, pay duty and bring it home. Convenient so long as it isn't too heavy.
But still cheaper than shipping to Canada and brokers.
