Airing down...

what do you guys uses to deflate your tires? I was looking at ARB Tire deflator, can it also be used to check the tire pressure?

Has anyone used Staun Tyre deflators? You can preset the the PSI you want to air down to. But you still need a pressure gauge to check when airing back up.

depends, core remover / back side of gauge/ needle nose pliers/

always thought of buying the Stauns but just never got around to it. Was even some for sale over on Expedition Forum a while back

I had the Stauns (before they were stolen) and absolutely loved them. Screw them on, walk away to talk to buddies, wait for the noise to stop.

I've seen guys using the Staun's... pretty neat. Instead of kneeling in the muck for a long time trying to air down a set of 33s, they screwed them in, then went over to help the poor souls trying to figure out where their air comes out of the tires.
You have to adjust them, so that's a bit of trial and error. But other than that, they looked to be a 'must have' for someone who wheels a lot.

Pro install is the way to go for those.Over on the CO4x4 board they had the same ?,3 guys with them responded,one had them professionally installed by poeple that work for staun and has no issues.The other 2 did the install themselfs and have nothing but problems.

I've got the ARB Deflator. Quick and accurate, and yes you can use it to check pressure too.

cheap and easy way is to cut the clear tube off an old fix a flat can
screw to valve stem and deflates hands free and pretty quickly
