Re: split rims
I worked at a Mobil station back in the days of full serve in the late 60s and early 70s. We had this wiry little fkr named Steve that could muscle split rims like nobody's business. I remember him hammering and prying and stomping those suckers with nothing but hand tools and his body, no machine aids. He did a lot of them, too.
After I tried doing a few myself they were such a b!tch that I declined to work on them anymore. I figured Steve was the man on this one.
I don't recall any accidents (but this was long ago so I may have forgotten). Certainly none that resulted in death or dismemberment.
Still, split rims are evil and should be avoided IMO.
