For anybody wanting an example of how to re-
seat a bead (of a 44" Bogger), have a look at this video clip.....It's a bit long, but I almost guarantee you'll get a chuckle out of it. The re-seating bit is right near the end.......

Many thanks for the link. Saw the movie about 10 years ago, mebe more, and have been hunting around for it. Quite surprising how few people will believe you when told about the the bead re-seating method.

Thank you Roachie,
I think I need to travel more!
Jeremy Clarkson cracks me up... "to keep things in"
If only we could own 80% of the land over here, to use how ever we want. We could go on safari every weekend!
Re-seating a tyre has never looked so easy.
Cheers,
Rossco.

Bill,
Good video clip mate. Bloody mad buggers, but what else can you do in Iceland.
Interesting use for the GPS navigation equipment hey!
Another plug for auto transmissions too.....essentual on the Glacier.
And that's what I call a "Fox Hat". I want one too!
I suppose you want Nitrous Oxide injection for your Rig now:-)

Are you getting confused with the "Hampster's" crash of the jet car on 5th gear.
I'm sure it wasn't Jeremy.

Roachie,
Good to see some of their daring antics in souped up vehicles again. There used to be a weekly show on one of the pay TV channels years ago about their vehicle exploits.
Truly an amazing country peopled by amazing folk.
Cheers,
Bros.

Great link Roachie.
Spectacular scenery and those are big trucks. I want to go there and have one.
Might set up a business there selling tree trunk protectors.
Oh thats right they don't have trees...........damn.
Wonder what the greenies do if there are no trees to hug?

Good clip Roachie,
Changing tyres without any trees, just think where all the dogs go to pee, no wonder they re-
seat the tyres without touching them YUK
