Re: 51 Patrician 400 Rear Tire Removal

If I remember right, my 51 and 54 had to be jacked up by the frame allowing the rear spring to relax, and axle to drop down so the tire would clear the fender well. This would be the normal situation if using the bumper jack on the road. I suppose if the tire were to wide, this operation might not even work. Try it and see.
