Swapping Tires On the Troy-Bilt Horse Tiller Without Removing Rims 

The tread on the old tires is indeed called turf tread. The tread on the new tires is called bar lug tread,

That’s one of the garden way tillers. Built in Troy New York. Hence the name Troy Bilt. Love em for sure. Good American iron🇺🇸

3 things you need. A rubber headed tire hammer, Vise grips, and Murphy's tire mounting soap, lol Pack that bead with tire soap and you don't need the strap

I guess that's better than digging that patch by hand. Good job SM. 👍🤠

I Own the pony troy built, had it for years and years, Love it! Same tractor tires!, Original! Some You Tuber gave a great post one time on how to keep tires from dry rotting, prop the axle off the ground so the tires don't have the weight of the machine!!! Just put new tractor tires on an old, Old, OLD no useful you tube info on my troy built sickle mower that I bought on Craigslist for $200. Did the X, Y, and Z and it runs great! I call it Jaws, for when I was putting it back together, with leather gloves on, the sickle blades moved about a 1/4 of an inch and nicked the glove, for a millionth of a second and barely drew a molecule of blood! Very informative video, have a great weekend. Robert

I had the same exact tiller did the same tire swap can’t beat the reliability of the horse tiller.

And of course, no need to balance these.....unless you're planning on tilling the garden at 40 MPH. 😂😂😂😂 (just a little joke, about that big 🤏) Speaking of big rigs and tires, a dump truck had a flat on my street and called the roadside tire service and you're absolutely right, they can change them while they're still on the truck. Thats also why they carry only the tire as a spare. Thanks for sharing! Hopefully the garden turns out good too!

Thank you for this very helpful video! I will be doing this in the very near future. Any chance we could get a link to the page where you bought these tires?

Ok now this gives ms a question, I bought a cub cadet a few years back and the tires no this one are backwards to yours and mine is a rear tiller too are they backwards?

I've got an old Troy Bilt tiller with a similar problem. However the tire current on it say 3.25-5 which doesn't seem to exist anymore. Do you have a suggestion on replacements?

I have a '91 model. I need to replace mine. Where did you get yours and are you happy with them?

I have my father’s old horse model from the 80s. Apparently the linkage has come loose somehow inside the transmission because it doesn’t move forward or backwards. I’ve been meaning to pull it apart to see what it needs but I haven’t got around to it.

Could have thrown some paint on the wheel when all the rubber was off - would have been easy not to have to mask things off.

Where did you find the tires?

What will you be planting into your sensually smooth garden patch? Or is that your wifes expertise?
