Beadlock wheels are a must have for any Jeep Wrangler owner or really, anyone who drives any off-road vehicle and that's playing hard enough on the trails to need their tires to be running at a really low PSI. And by low, I'm talking about 10 PSI or under because at that pressure, the chances of rolling a bead becomes a lot higher. Fortunately, installing them on a big set of tires is a lot easier that you'd think and in this video, I'll show you how.

And yes, for those of you who've been following our videos for a while now, this is something that we have done almost half a dozen times now but typically, as a part of a broader project. The main reason why we decided to do it again now, is so that we can focus on just the beadlock install and show others just how easy it is to do :)

Awesome video! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

I have mounted tires on beadlocks a few times and I learned several cool tips from this video. Very well done Cindy and Eddie. Also love the Ripley cam, especially at the 2:43-ish mark where she is intently watching you and wondering what could possibly be more important about what you were than playing with her. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

A step by step tutorial video? Surely the internet experts will have no problem with this. :rolleyes:

Also watching you do this (and Mel in older videos) just makes me mad. There was A LOT more swearing when I did mine and I followed that same procedure. :LOL:
LOL - too funny ๐Ÿ˜

I switched from my step-up torque crisscross pattern to your method on the last set of beadlocks and it was so much faster; I'm sure my neighbors appreciated not hearing me cuss so much and I liked not taking such a long time to get them mounted.
 
Awesome! When I can afford beadlocks lol I'll refer to this without a doubt. Ripley stealing the show though as usual, obviously the highlight of the install.

Great video on installing the beadlocks! Hoping to install mine finally this year. This video will help for sure. Iโ€™m glad you mentioned the anti seize I know it was back and forth here on the forum and was going to ask it so glad you mentioned it. I think Iโ€™ll add it for safe measures since my Jeep is not garaged for safe measures. Thanks again for this video! Loved seeing Ripleys tricks at the end! ๐Ÿ˜Ž


So easy a kid could do it. Jeep Looks PERFECT Eddie!!!
Haha Iโ€™m going to have to show my girlfriend this to coax her to help me install them, weโ€™ll see if it works. Wish me luck. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Great tutorial. Itโ€™s always nice when you can watch a step by step video before starting a project.
That's all we hope for with videos like this - to be able to help others with it :)
