Tractor rears are easiest to deal with with the rim mounted on the tractor.

1. Drain the fluid. Lower the tractor down to squeeze the fluid out of the tube faster.
2. Break the bead. Having the rim mounted on the tractor, you now have something solid to whale against with the BFH.
3. Remove the tire using tire irons, or "spoons" depending on who you talk to. Outside bead first, then pull the tube, then pry the tire the rest of the way off.
4. If the area around the valve stem hole is too far gone, you need a new rim. Get one locally. There HAS to be a tire shop in the area that does tractor tires, that can get you a rim. Just tell them that you need one for a Farmall H and they will know. If they don't, find a different place. I believe it's a "drop center" type, but not sure of the width. FYI, a "double bevel" rim has two bevels.
