How do I break the bead of a tire with a high lift and a truck? I have tried using the weight of the truck with the base of the high lift on the sidewall of the tire, but I just end up with the truck in the air and the bead still unbroken
. Any thoughts?

Check list:
1: Remove valve core
2: Place base of jack as close to the rim as possible w/o being on the rim.
3: Jack up truck.
If all these are done, call eric and get the tire changer.
