      Hey Ben I have a 2001 XJ and was wondering how well does your hood vents from hyline off-road work and mine is a daily driver but tends to get warm in the summer here in Indiana and was just wondering if I would encounter any problems when driving in the rain?

    • @JKGearandGadgets

      gavin frost no issues with rain! Helps a ton with letting heat out, do it!

    When I’m looking for Jeep videos I always try and see if you don’t have something relevant to what I’m looking for because you’re always one of the more detailed ppl on here. Thank you for making videos, they help!

  • @mtbales0805
    @mtbales0805 Před 5 lety +4

    Great comparison video! I use the Currie and absolutely love it but am considering the JT Brooks Pro. Saving time airing down is priceless in my opinion. Keep the videos coming!

  • @NathanKKennedy
    @NathanKKennedy Před 5 lety +3

    I've been using my regular car air pressure gage my dad gave me when I first learned to drive. This is a great video helping me learn the differences, thanks!

  • @dougharlow6037
    @dougharlow6037 Před 5 lety +1

    I have been doing my tire air downs the old fashion way with that first tire gauge you demonstrated, very slow, but accurate. I would love winning the “Currie EZ Tire Deflator”. It looks way easier and faster to deflate my tires as to the old fashion way. Another great video. Keep them coming. Thanks

  • @highlife9624
    @highlife9624 Před 5 lety +3

    Just getting back into wheeling, took your advice on the JL hood latches and ordered a set. Great videos and thanks for making them!

  • @PowerTankOfficial
    @PowerTankOfficial Před 5 lety +7

    Of course we're using Monster Valves on our own rigs but before we developed them, we always had a set of Trailhead Deflators. They work similarly to the JT Brooks but the set screw is recessed making it harder to knock out of adjustment. They may take longer to air down than pulling the valve core but there's less "knee time" spent at each tire which means we have time to prep other gear or check out other rigs.

  • @tfrye008
    @tfrye008 Před 5 lety +2

    Great video! I use a four-hose system on my primary valves all attached to a calibrated SI analog gauge that’s mounted under my driver side hinged cowl. My backup is a Trailhead red set. I occasionally throw those on the secondary valves and just hit the trails.

  • @jeremykiesewetter4251
    @jeremykiesewetter4251 Před 5 lety

  • @jasonsmith2519
    @jasonsmith2519 Před 5 lety +1

    Enjoyed your video on the tire Deflators. I've been a subscriber for a bit and enjoy seeing what topics you're thinking about. I'm currently building my off road supply kit and could use one of the tire deflectors. Keep up the good work.

  • @sreetglidemikej6698
    @sreetglidemikej6698 Před 5 lety

    Great vid, this is my first Jeep and love it. Plan on retirement in a few years and hopping to have her built into an awesome overland rig by then. Looking forward to collecting all the gear one needs to be safe and efficient on the trails. Keep up the great videos.

  • @FI5TH75
    @FI5TH75 Před 5 lety +1

    Awesome video, I never aired down before, because I never knew what psi to run with. This is a great help,

  • @kelso1337
    @kelso1337 Před 5 lety +1

    I used the ARB deflators very similar to Currie deflators. Almost identical as if Currie bought the design or something. Its nice knowing where your pressure is at while deflating but one tire at a time is slow. Keep up the good work!

  • @peterprice6394
    @peterprice6394 Před 5 lety +3

    I been using these on 37-13.5 for last 13 years 15 inch steel wheel 8-9psi I set them screw them on I pull them off few mins into my run. Simple BILLET4X4 TRAILHEAD Tire Deflators great product.

  • @glennrjanssen
    @glennrjanssen Před 5 lety +1

    Since I don't have beadlocks, I air down to about 16-17 psi. Keep doing what you're doing

  • @aaronbadboyflexxer9173

    Love your videos man. Just started watching this year. Keep them up

  • @glamisjim
    @glamisjim Před 5 lety +2

    Good video. Deflators have come a long way from the day I used to remove the core and check the air every now and then and then screw it back in.
    Keep up the nice work

  • @bplouff
    @bplouff Před 5 lety

    Currently i am deflating old school with the back of my tire gauge. I bring them down to about 12 without bead locks. lol I just got my 2009 JKU Rubicon. your videos have been awesome i have learned a lot keep them coming!

  • @JJMTB66
    @JJMTB66 Před 5 lety

    Good info. Thanks. I run around 10-13 on 33's and doing well. I do like the auto deflate. I could be doing other things to get on the trail while those are deflating.
    Happy trails, and keep the rubber side down. 😉

    Love the JTbrooks pro's, although i havnt used them on my jeep seeing as we dont really have rocks here in East TX so my 28psi does fine for the mud and trails but I do use them ALOT on my quad for mud ride to easily set tires to 5psi, great over view on other products too keep it up bud

  • @williamhardin5254
    @williamhardin5254 Před 5 lety

    I have a Currie EZ Deflator and I have been very happy with it. I have some of the Auto Deflators also but they don't always seem to deflate at the same pressure each time I use them.

  • @tommeece2446
    @tommeece2446 Před 5 lety

    My 20 year old grandson just bought his first jeep. We are now a 3 Jeep family. This would be a great addition to his wheeling kit. Personally I have a system where I have 2 1/4 hoses connected to a 3 way manifold where I can air down 2 tires at once and monitor the air flow with a pressure gauge on the manifold. Air up the same way 2 tires at once using my onboard air system. Running Cooper A/Ts and normallly run 20psi.

  • @bryanmuck1651

  • @dekepatterson
    @dekepatterson Před 5 lety

    Just subscribed the other day. Love the blue collar approach to Jeep videos, very informative. Love the Valve puller with gauge, I run 40's and beadlocks on my JKU daily driver but use a 2 buck valve core puller and traditional pressure gauge when I wheel. Just sit there listen to it go down, and periodically check the pressure with a traditional tire pressure gauge. Love the idea of having these integrated into one tool, and that it is Currie, matchy match my rear RockJock 60 :-)

    @rickkarr9776 Před 5 lety

    I use Trailhead brand deflators. They use a small allen wrench to set pressure.
    I put the on one a time and watched my TPS gauge as the pressure got near where I wanted it I just screwed the allen in to stop deflating. From then on screw all 4 on and let them go.
    They work very well.

  • @kimberlyrichardson5779

  • @jeephreakiwon
    @jeephreakiwon Před 5 lety

    Thanks for the wonderful information!! I use R.A.D.S. Valve Stems. They are similar to the Monster Valves but instead install like a traditional valve stem. You can install in a second drilled(not tapped) hole in your wheel if you choose or just use the existing one. The deflation collar is easy to use and you just thread it open or closed and can release or check pressures. It is very fast and even though it becomes a single wheel at a time process I truly enjoy the speed and simplicity. Thanks again for the giveaway!!

    • @40lowgear
      @40lowgear Před 3 lety

      RAD valves were nice but are no longer around as far as I know. BTW, Power Tank does make a new Monster Valve that does not require thread tapping and is much easier to install.
