Ok. Well I am absolutely sick to death of trying to find a little stick to let down my Tyre's every time I get bogged. SO. does anybody have a tyre deflator/set that they would like to part with for cheap? :)

I know they arent cheap, but ARB's version of the EZ-deflator are brilliant. If thats too expensive, you could just buy a valve core removal tool (maybe $5) and just remove the valve whenever you want to deflate. Practice first on a spare tyre though to get the feel of what is happening. You want to unscrew the valve core all the way out and have it sit there on the end of the tool still inside the valve body as the air is rushing out, you dont want it flying off in any direction. Its rough and very difficult to get pressures right, but if you want cheap...

You can buy the end fittings which are on your general servo air pumps/ air compressors and the like. The clips which lock down and remove the valve as shown in the pic, releases air alot quicker

1) let tyres down before entering bog.
2) CHEAP is finding a stick.
3) Using a deflator in the mud will render it useless in a short time.
4) Refer to 1&2.
5) KEEP OUT OF MUD and you won't get bogged.

Hope this helps No 5 works the best I have found.

the best thing i spent 50cents on was at supercrap on there cheap little compressors you plug into your car, the little flip valve that locks it onto your wheel you can buy them seperatley. all you do is clip it on and it lets the air out of your tyres i use mine up the beach they are great and really cheap you can buy 4 of them for $2

Go to your local tyre store and ask for one of these and a few spare valve cores. Then you can unscrew the valve and let the tyre down quickly. Its just a valve cap that screws on where your standard cap goes.

price free

The back of the tyre gauge from super cheap, cost me $1 . Check ya pressure, then turn it round and it's it a circle with a small pin, let's air our rapidly :). Cheapest option besides ur stick solution or ignition key

I think I will go with ando_zook94's idea. I do have a little pressure gauge. But no pin thingy on the other side. I think I will just stick one to it :)

Those little pressure gauges have a minimum of 15 - 20 PSI don't they?
