Mojoblocks

If you've already bought your Harbor Freight motorcycle tire changing stand, you've probably noticed the rim-grabbing jaws are made of powdercoated steel. That's fine for the crusty steel rims from your '82 Pontiac, but what about your beautiful, chromed/painted alloy motorcycle wheels? In an effort to protect their rims, users have tried lining those jaws with all kinds of things: electrical tape, duct tape, sliced-up rubber hose, and plastic dip, to name a few items. But unless you're careful about securing this stuff, it can slip out of place, leaving you with damaged rims. 

The solution?  Mojoblocks:

  

                                                                                                               

                                      

           

                                                  

 

With a set of Mojoblocks, you can easily retrofit your Harbor Freight tire-changing stand so that it will grip your rims without scratching them.   The cutout in each Mojoblock is wide enough to accommodate even the tubeless wire-spoke wheels from BMW's GS-series bikes. 

What's included in the Mojoblock package, and how do I install them?

The Mojoblock package includes three Mojoblocks, three Nylock nuts and three bolts - one for each jaw on your Harbor Freight tire changer. To install them, you just need to drill a bolt hole in each jaw on your Harbor Freight tire-changing stand, and bolt the blocks in place.  Click here to view the installation manual.

You sell three different styles of Mojoblocks. How do I know which ones I need?

To my knowledge, there are three different jaw styles on Harbor Freight tire changers. If you have not already purchased your Harbor Freight tire changer, I recommend doing so before you buy the Mojoblocks. Examine the rim-grabbing jaws on your changer and compare them to this chart:

OK, sounds great.  How Much For A Set of Mojoblocks?

The price is $30, and that includes postage to anywhere in the 48 lower United States.  If you need it shipped somewhere else, email me and we’ll work something out.

Should I fill my tires with nitrogen?

What else have you got?

If you haven't already got one, you might also be interested in a Mojolever.

If you're bored, you might be mildly entertained by my vanity web page.
