Do-it-yourself tire changing.
By Lisa Barry, FEI 5* Rider and Trainer
When traveling with a horse trailer, flat tires are inevitable. Purchase an inexpensive impact driver and a long socket that fits the tires lug nuts on both your truck and trailer. Keep it with you at all times. This simple piece of equipment allows you to change a tire much more quickly and get you and your horses back on the road safe and sound! Makes a great gift for you horsey friends!
