    Being experienced in changing a tire  :bigsmile: I think this is great.  Unless, of course, you have an electric car.   :roflsmiley:

    I use to use air bags to raise a corner of a overhead cranes to change wheels. Most I picked up with an air bag is only 150,000 lbs at 90psi of air. I always used oak to crib up after I got it up but like the ideal for cars. I know it will scare people until they are use to it.

    the only  problem I see is the gases and acid in exhaust deteriorating the rubber over time. An example is: when I had my Harley I bought a emergency tire repair kit that had a hose to inflate the tire by removing a spark plug and connecting this hose between the valve core and 1 cylinder. Then using just the starter to pump air from the cylinder into the tire. Worked great, would pump up the tire in just a couple of minutes. 6 months later when I had another flat , the inside of the tire looked like it was made out of snot and old condoms.

    Where did you get that kit Outlaw. Sounds like a good Christmas present for my old man. He is a Harley rider and I hate being a good boy and picking him up in my pickup.

     I got it from J.C.Whitney, don't know if they still have them. I was glad I had it as I was way out in the middle of nowhere and caught a piece of fence wire. Had a tire plug in the kit to fix it with but no way to pump it up. That hose was worth it's weight in gold that night...LOL

    Random thought, I wonder if that airbag would work with a dual exhaust that has a crossover pipe...

    Aris - I think a crossover would be a problem.   The exhaust would follow the path of least resistance, which would be out the open tailpipe.
