I'm looking for a reputable tire deflators / inflators. I'm trying to learn about some of the ins and outs of off-roading. So If anyone has any info it would be much appreciated.

We've run these 2 over couple years. Both work good.

There are so many threads on compressors, here and (especially) on Bronco6g. People have pretty strong opinions so buckle up. I use and recommend the Thorslightning.com which is a two-cylinder NAPA-based compressor. Several others use that base and market it with their modifications. It is fast.

I've started using tire deflators, which get the job done just as fast, and you don't have to go from tire to tire or get your hoses out.


Bear in mind, this gets to be an expensive hobby. You can buy and install what you think you need, or go large and set up your rig with more stuff that you might need on more ambitious runs.

the more expensive option, which i love due to ease, is the 4 way morrflate inflate/deflate hose. it allows you to inflate and/or deflate all tires at once. this is a timesaver and will equalize all tires to the same pressure. i paired that with an under the hood arb twin compressor, which was a complete pita to install, but worth every minute, imo. hook up all four tires and hit the aux switch. i can deflate and pack the hose in about 10 mins and about the same to inflate.
