R980XR + LS43B + Weights

R980XR

If you want the space-saving benefits of the R980AT without the addition of an assist-tower, then the R980XR is the perfect alternative tire changer. The R980XR is great for general repairs on a wide range of tires, including racing tires, pickup trucks and tire beads that don’t have a lot of fight in them. The electric turntable makes tire changes happen faster, and by controlling the speeds, your low-profile and run-flat beads will have time to relax.

One of this tire changer’s most useful features is its swing-arm. When you’re dealing with run-flats and stubborn beads, the power assist tower will safely secure the edge of the tire, moving along with the activated turntable. The bead will almost always seat without any issues. Give this a shot on a stubborn bead without the swing-arm, and you’ll be at it for a good while. With the R980XR you’ll ultimately just save time and money.

An electric turntable will efficiently spin tires to seat or remove beads. With reverse-direction foot pedal controls, you’ll be in total control of your tire changing operation. The turntable is the only electrical component in the tire changer (everything else is air-powered), and it requires little to no support or maintenance over time.

Tough sidewalls won’t give you issues with this changer. A traveling drop-center tool makes changing tires as easy as can be. Ranger tire changers offer increased safety and efficiency, and the drop-center tool is necessary to the whole operation. A swing-in disc can also help loosen beads by using safe pneumatic power that won’t end up accidently damaging your tires.

LS43B

This wheel balancer from Ranger optimizes wheel weight placements with its exclusive Laser-Spot™ technology. The laser lines will clearly indicate outboard and inboard weight placements for incredible balances within hundredths of an ounce. You’ll never have to manually input wheel parameters thanks to Ranger’s exclusive 3D Auto Data Entry technology.

Laser balancers are becoming increasingly popular in high-volume shops since they eliminate second-guessing, and they end up speeding up weight placements. This means that the balance check you perform after placing inboard and outboard weights will almost always be clean. The fewer weights you use, the more your bottom line will increase. Not only that, but your customers will love the long-lasting balances that make their rides feel like new again.

When ALU modes are selected and stick-on weights are desired, an instinctive laser will mark the low-side of the wheel at the 6-o’-clock position, making stick-on weight placement and installation a breeze. Once it’s time for the clip-on weights, the intuitive data control will automatically sense that the topside weight position is desired, and it’ll pinpoint the laser at precisely 12-o’-clock. Laser-Spot™ weight-positioning lasers provide greater weight placement accuracy while helping reduce mistakes. More single-spin balances will end up increasing productivity and profits. It doesn’t get easier than that.

Tape Weight Rolls

Ranger’s Stick-On-Steel weights offer an incredible fit, as well as a reliable and cost-effective choice. Their weights are designed to be corrosion resistant and have little impact on the environment. Show your customers that you’re working with quality by using an adhesive that is extra-sticky, lessening the chance of it becoming loose and falling off the wheel.
