Welcome back to the Gator Overland Channel. In today"s video I explain the fundamentals and advantages of inflating and deflating your tires to maximize your comfort and traction both On and Off-Road. The inflation/deflation process though advantageous, can be a time consuming process. The 4-way Inflate/Deflate system will save you valuable tire prep time getting on and off the trail. Follow along and I'll show you how to construct your own 4-way system, followed by a detailed manual vs. 4-way time evaluation for both 33" and 37" tires using an ARB single compressor. The DIY 4-Way Tire system is a time saving, budget friendly addition to any off-road "Just Go" kit.
