your tires are running the wrong way, put the left ones on the right side and the ones on the right on the left, the tread pattern is supposed to run so it sipes the water away from the center not towards it.
Better zip tie a snow tire on that thing.
Hmmm, they are illegal in California? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyDQJcpJ9og
Do they have pictures of guns on them? Are they non-vegan?
take a look at the vp gas can, the ones they make for raceing. there nice…
Are the back tires on backward?
Government bull crap! We are drowning in it.
Hey Josh great idea. I zip tied my son’s little ride on John Deere Gator tires. He has been buzzing through the yard tonight.
Need weight in the back too.
Does the jon dear not have 4 wheel drive ?
Josh, why do you have the “farm use” plate on the back of your Gator
Lol i had a feeling that was going to happen with those wheels.. but you do what you like trial en error like it
I wonder if you put a few twists in the zip-ties it would increase the grip.
Would you like to know how to undo a zip tie without ruining it? Take a paper clip, or something like ti, bent out the end, put it n the locking part from the outside, on the ratchet side. Push down, this will release the ratchet side. this releases the strap and you can pull it lose. Oddly this basic idea also works on handcuffs, but you need something sturdier than a paper clip
Mrs. SRF is gonna be pixxed when she sees the yard after the snow melts.
I don’t think to tire direction matters at slow speed. Also, the tread pattern is meant to channel water away (I think), so that doesn’t really matter either.
Zip-Grip. Free enterprise at it’s best.
I think your problem is the tires if I’m not mistaken you should probably have some off-road tires for any type of farm use
How come you have those silly tires on your gator ?
A little tip, this doesn’t work with steel wheels. Only with smoother alloy wheels
Dude with the old gas can literally just put a small hole in the top of the can on the other side and it works great, i only have old gas cans and thats what i do
Is that Green Snow. Looks yummy!!!
Yea that’s not really any amount of snow. I suppose clever hack in your situation. Perhaps you should get a second set of wheels and tires if you are planning to use it when you have more animals. I can see them being friendly to a lawn in the summer, but on a farm? Anyway you use what you have.
you’re going to regret that when the snow melts
THese have been around for deckades…….https://www.tirechain.com/Tire-Chains-Strap-On.htm
Your wife is gonna kick your butt for trashing “her” yard! Oh and change those darn tires would ya.
wow I’m glad Canada still uses the old style gas nozzles
those gas can things suck so bad!
You have your tyres on back to front. The tread is facing the wrong way.
Is the direction of the tread supposed to go the other way or is it just me
Why don’t you have a Fuel Bauza
4wd zip ties would work better
It gets stuck cuz you have those stupid ads tires on a gator
You know those old kerosene siphon pump hose things.
Well… they make a bigger version. It’s got a sweet push button stop on top.
It’s FAST! I can get 5 gallons into something in seconds. Love those things. No batteries to go bad. You can store them easily. Hoses are perfect length for most applications.
Turn wheels around and put a few more Zip Ties on it.
Put the other tires back on
I was waiting for the drift.
Why don’t you just have like a thousand litre tank on a tower? Everyone in Australia does that but Americans always seem to mess around with Jerry cans? Is there a reason for that?
I live in eastern nc , we got snow Monday but it didn’t really stay .
Are you gonna put your old tires back on?
Zip ties and Duct Tape!!!!! Can fix anything. 🙂
I believe that those easy pour spouts are sold at tractor supply cheaper than on Amazon
I was kinda hoping to see the stoney ridge farm van get splattered with grassy snow slush when hitting the gas, LOL JK. The wife and I got stuck in the snow and I remembered watching another better hack, used tie down straps the sinch down rather than ratchet style. Same concept at the zip ties but you have the large pinching portion of the tie down strap to grab for traction. Worked great, snowy ice ruts will stop most vehicles.
base rocks dude.
That’s a sweet trick… Thanks for sharing
Just drill a primer hole for your gas can
Tire cables are like 25 bucks lol
I would have just gunned it.
So shut up an Dribble !!
You literally live 10 mins from me lol. Small world
Please put the real tires back on the gator.
