ABSTRACT:
A tire changing tool and universal workstand for use in a tire store or mechanic shop includes a base having a vertically extending post attached thereto. The work support members includes a vehicle wheel work support attachment removably attached to the top of the post for attaching and holding a vehicle wheel to the tire changing tool. The wheel attachment is attached to the post end so that the wheel can be fixedly attached and held in a horizontal plane. A tire removing tool is removably attached to one side of the post and positioned so that a wheel having a tire thereon can be placed adjacent the post so that the tire removing tool can be positioned adjacent the wheel rim flange against the tire and is leveraged for driving the tool to break the tire edge from the tire rim. The work support attachment is attached to the top of the vertically extending post with a post coupling having a square insert inserted into a square post top opening and having a flange cap thereover and having the vehicle wheel work support attached thereto. The wheel work support can be rapidly removed from the vertical post for converting the tire changing tool to a different type of work station.
