Tomorrow I have a 12 hour mowing contract to fulfill for Ducks Unlimited....today I was on my second job and I felt the mower dragging. Looked around, level ground, then see my rear 18.4 x 30 tire half flat. I limped it through to the end of the job, barely got it loaded on the trailer, but got it home. Luckily it was only 5 miles from home. Pulled the wheel off, used the skidsteer and forks to break the bead. This tire hadn't been off in ages! Well, it had a little CaCl left in it, maybe 10 gallons from when I drained them years ago. Wrestled the tube out of the tire and onto the rim. Used the forks to pick it up, tube caught on the wheel weight bolt and ripped a 1x3" section out of it....well I got the rest of the fluid out of it anyway :-( On to plan B...pull the 15.5 x 38's off another tractor and swap tires for now. I see a sprig of wire sticking out the inner sidewall of the flat one. I remember dodging a 1/4" cable that was buried in the field. The blades must have just nicked the cable and sent a piece into the tire. Such luck....
