Scott that is simillar to the bead breaker I use, the thread isn't long enough for blitz rims so I have to use blocks for a second push. Vicki bought mine through the local John Deer dealer and it cost over $400 over six years ago. It is also great to use on tractors as I can break the bead with the wheel still on the tractor, saves a lot of heavy lifting.

If thinking of buying, check Amazon.com for the model number. It looks like they are available for $140-$155 - new.

Hi Scott

I have purchased lots of items via Amazon and I have found that they are very good and their postage is cheaper than other companies I have dealt with in USA. I do concede that Amazon do deal as an agent for a lot of companies and some do not sell overeas. That is why you would have got the Amazon message stating the do not post to your address. You will note that Amazon use lots of different companies selling the same product, so when you get knocked back with one item, then keep trying until you get the one that does sell to Australia. I recently did this for Winch Parts. With our $ being high at the moments it is worth buying from the USA they are a lot cheaper. The last Jeep parts I purchsed from the USA was $435.00 buying in Australia and I got it from the USA delivered to my door for $315.00. So don't write them off just yet.

Cheers

Tony
