I was out wheeling today, and the kit actually deflated my tires from 30 to 20 psi by the time I was done disconnecting my sway bar links. I’m not sure why it took longer when I made this video.

I have these in the Boulder Tools brand. It takes a little over 5 minutes to air down to my set pressure. But if you drill the relief hole with a 5/64 drill bit it will cut that air down time to less than 3 minutes.
Hey Josh, Awesome subscriber tip!!!!!!! Thanks! Cheers.
Thanks Im going to try this when I get them!
Damn, just getting started with a rig and got these for free as a part of the deal lol. Did not expect 20 min... That however sounds infinitely better than manually holding them down with that knowledge
As they deflate you’re free to tend to other matters. ☕️
They look very handy. I will definitely look into it. Thanks for the informative video!
You are welcome. After using them on the trail for the first time yesterday I was actually pleased with how well they worked out. Cheers
Hey Dino, funny you put this out I was just getting around to doing that myself with a set I picked up at overland expo in 2019, just found them... I just finished my ARB compressor install so need to test this out. Keep up the great work !!
Hey Bruce, That’s pretty cool. I’m sure you’ll love the convenience of these things. Thank you also for the feedback. Cheers.
Thanks for the video. Just got the rhino pro deflator and wasn't too sure how it works. You did a great job on this video.
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback on the video. I’m glad you found the video helpful. Feel free to check out more. 😆
Cheers.
Thank you very much. I got this exact set and couldn't figure out how to set the initial one. Fantastic! Easier way to keep the adjustment from moving is to run a bead of clear chaulk just under the adjustment screw ;)
I’m glad you found the video helpful. Cheers.
Blue Loctite to keep them from being knocked out of adjustment accidentally works too. 👍
Great tip. Thanks.
Great video Dino!
Thank you sir. Out on a trail at the moment ready to use those deflators. Cheers.
! ! ! NICE TIPS ! ! !
! ! ! A SHOUT OUT FOR THE ACTING 😁👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 ! ! !
lol. …I’d like to thank the academy! …🏆
Cheers 😄
Good job Dino.
Thanks Jeff, I appreciate your feedback. Cheers.
Cheers. Got these. Never known how to set. From South Africa.
Hello to you sir in South Africa. I’m glad you found the video helpful. Feel free to check out some more. Cheers.
Once I had them adjusted to my desired PSI, I put some of my wife's red nail polish on the threads, works good to keep them locked and is removable with nail polish remover.
That sounds like a brilliant subscriber tip! I’m going to include that in my next video.
Thanks!
Cheers
Great video, I have two sets of those for airing down. I have one that drops to 20PSI and the other that drops to 12PSI. Depending on what I am doing, I can use either set. Although, they do take a while to air down, so I find I normally go back to my normal one that pulls out the valve.
Hey TrailWalker, Thanks for the feedback. Cheers.
Why not just start driving? Why wait? Just pop em on and go!
I bought a set of Boulder Tools deflators, love them! Thanks for doing this video
Hey TDTravels, I’m glad you found the video helpful. Cheers.
@@CheaperJeeperTV as a follow up, I have been using these this winter in arizona, got them set to drop pressure to 12psi. Works perfect each time! Thanks for this video~
@@CheaperJeeperTV I made me a set of inflation lines, couldnt see paying the high price for the purchased units, Bought 50' of air line some connectors and plastic fuel valves and tire inflators and fill all 4 tires back up to 36 psi in about 12-14 minutes
I’ve heard of people doing that. What was your total cost?
@@CheaperJeeperTV I would say less than $90us
nice music. thanks for the video.
Hey Kip,
Thanks for the feedback.
Cheers
Nice video, but 16 min is long time IMHO.
I used the ARB deflator, I also went to 10 pounds without Beadlocks.
Recently bought beadlocks and added monster valves, not cheap but omg 12 seconds from 28 to 8lbs.
Keep up great videos
Whoa! 12 seconds?! That’s super fast. Incidentally I was wheeling today and it didn’t take me as long as the video suggests. I must have done something wrong. Today I started the airing down with the kit and by the time I disconnected the sway bar links, my tires were deflated from 30 to 20 psi, so under 5 minutes. I don’t know where I went wrong timing the process when I made the video. Thank you for the feedback on the videos. Cheers.
Do you have a video on sway bar disconnect? Thinking to buy a jeep but wasnt sure. Thanks for this vdieo. Will do little bit trails but most likely not too much. Once a year. Very new to this. Thanks
I would just unbolt the sway bar links manually for just once a year, but if you wanted to see the installation of a disconnect, I made this video of a sway bar disconnect. Installation of the TeraFlex 1764000 JL | JT: Front Sway Bar Quick Disconnect Kit (0-4.5” Lift)

Cheers
Great video Dino, thanks a lot.
Geez, they are already sold out on amazon...
Cheers from the West Coast
Hey AloPandur, Thanks for feedback on the video. Sorry that they are already sold out. There are other sellers but I can only vouch for this one because it’s the only one with which I have experience. Who know, they could all be made at the same place for all I know. Cheers.
Try wrapping thread oe electrical tape around your threads once you get your deflators set. It stops the locking nut from moving.
Great tip! Thank you! I'll have to include it in a video. Cheers.
GREAT VIDEO THANKS FOR SHARING. WHAT KIND OF TIRE COMPRESSOR DO YOU HAVE?
I have the Smittybilt 2781. I’m happy with it, except for the non standard fittings.
Thanks for the video
Do you just take them off and put back on the valve caps before you hit the trail? If not ,shouldn’t you?
Yes, I do.
Cheers.
what is that mangled o ring in your valve at 3:38 ?
Hey M JL,
Good eye! I believe it's an o-ring that came out of the bottom of the screw on tire deflator. If I recall correctly, at the time of filming, I took it out of the valve and reinserted back it into the bottom of the tire inflator.
Cheers
Hi Dino, I'm looking for a compressor right now and trying to decide on a size. Do you remember how quick the Smittybilt 7181 inflated your tires (bigger than my 255/75 R17) from about 20 to 30 PSI? I want to save as much weight as possible by choosing a smaller compressor but I also don't want to spend 20 minutes or so for inflating the tires.
Hey Gryff, I don't remember the actual time it took to re-inflate my larger tires, but with the larger Smittybilt air compressor, I was VERY satisfied with the speed. It's crazy heavy, but I think you would not be as satisfied if you went for a lesser air compressor. Good luck with your choice.
Cheers
@@CheaperJeeperTV Thanks for your answer, Dino! By larger air compressor you mean the Smittybilt 7181 you used in the video? It inflates with 72 litres per minute. If you say that's okay I will go for a model with the same airflow. Thanks again for your patience and help :-)
Yep! That one. I was impressed with the air flow. This one is built well but doesn’t have standard fittings. So if you look for a different brand, you may be able to get one well built but comes with standard fittings. Good luck.
Cheers
@@CheaperJeeperTV Thanks, I think I alreay found a decent one! :-)
I like your chair. Where I can go to get one?
Hey 蒋叶楠, I don't remember, but here are a couple links of similar chairs on Amazon.

Cheers.
@@CheaperJeeperTV Thank you!
Just a question how come u keep using usd on all your products there is Amazon Canada too
Hi Steven,
I try to use both most of the time, I think.
I’ll have to keep an eye on that.
Thanks for the feedback.
Cheers
He didn’t use Euro or Pesos either.
How long does it take to air up all four tires?
Is there a faster set of cheap deflators?
Using my Smittybilt 2781 on my Duratracs to go from 20 psi to 30 psi, it takes 60 seconds exactly per tire.
@@CheaperJeeperTV I saw in one of your other comments that it only took 5 minutes on a subsequent attempt to deflate all the tires. That sounds much more realistic. I'm impatient!
Yes. I’m not sure what I did incorrect when making the tape. However, yesterday, when in a trail run, I started deflating the tires with the kit and by the time I finished disconnecting the sway bar links, the tires were done!!! It was a pleasant surprise.
I have often gone to 12 PSI without Beadlocks and have never had any problems with that.
12 psi? What type and size of tire?
@@CheaperJeeperTV I am 78 and no longer due any serious off roading on my current 2017 JK Sport. I have had 4 other Jeeps including my first Jeep a CJ-5. When off road in sand or difficult traction situations i would drop to 12 PSI. For many year i was running 30 inch Mickey Thompsons or Cooper tires. I might have had a Goodyear tire in there once which i believe was on the CJ-5 when i purchased it almost 50 years ago. I never blew a bead at 12 PSI but it can happen. Slow and easy was always my style as my Jeep was often my only vehicle and I was careful not to damage it. No sharp turns at 12 PSI and if i needed more speed I would air up to 18 PSI.
Great information. Thank you very much.
It took 16mins to air down 4tires 10psi? 🤔
Nice!
Just a heads up, your link to the deflators no longer works.
Hey The Joe,
I appreciate the heads up. I’ll make sure to fix that.
Cheers
Hey The Joe,
I tried it and it seems to work. 🤷🏻♂️
where do you find links for products? who is manufacturer of these tire deflators?
The link for the tire deflators is in the description section of this video. Here is the link.

when I first saw these I thought they were the cats ass, I ended up winning 2 sets of them at our jeep club BBQ, Tried them out and couldn't get them below 15 psi Ended up giving them away lol
Oh. That’s probably why they’re OK for me. I don’t want to air down much past 20 for myself I may try to go down to 15 at some point. Thanks for sharing your experience with these. Cheers
Mine came in foam in small tin box.
Hey Richard,
That’s perfect. I would have liked that! Lucky for you.
Cheers
I like the fact that you set it and forget it for 15 minutes have a coffee and watch everyone else air down. I don’t like the idea of unscrewing the valve stem
Yep. I feel the same. 👍
Wow that’s quite the long ass time to deflate. Especially from 30?
It is. Some people, when they reach the trail head, just put them on and start driving. Thanks for watching.
Cheers.
Why not just put them on and start driving?
Hey kalin, I guess if you weren't needing to go too long, I suppose you could. Thanks.
phuck Staun, I dont want to pay 80$ for pieces of brass when 15 dollar amzn copy does the same
They worked very well for me.
16 min? Dude if I go around and manual do tire by tire its faster and I have a buddy on 1 side its even faster.
If that’s how you want to do it, then that’s great for the reason you mentioned. With these it frees you up to tend to other matters while the tires deflate. Either way can suit what you’d prefer. Cheers.
Who wants to wait 20 min ????
Yeah, it was more like 16 minutes. Don’t forget during that time. There’s other things that you’re doing as well. If this doesn’t work for you there’s other options fortunately. Cheers.
