Default Truck Wheel Dolly on sale

For any of you who pull a tire off the coach from time to time- this is a really handy thing to have. I've never seen one for $39- it's a great price. Here is the link and a photo-

Shane,

Thanks for the heads up. I'll have to see about picking one up.

Hi Shane,

I think the tire alone weights atleast 150 lbs, with the rim maybe over 200 lbs, Do you know the full weight of a mounted tire and if this dolly can handle the load. This dolly is rated at 150 lbs.
One of those tools, Ya need to own , and never use it.....

Bill,
I used Shanes at the rally in Hershey. Worked fine for my 11R-22.5's with aluminum rims. Not as flimsy as it looks. Not for a tire shop, but fine for you and I.

Bill,

It easily handles the 12R22.5's on my coach. It is exactly the same as the ones used in commercial garages. Their mechanics usually have to buy their own tools too. The tubing is a heavier gauge than what you would expect for $39.

I went to the local Northern store and they do not stock the dolly. However, they ordered one for me, matching the online price ($39) and did not charge shipping. It will ship to the store and they will call me for pickup when it arrives. I did have to give them the SKU # because they could not find it in their order system. With the SKU they could place the order.
