The Locknflate works great, the Haltecs don't work very well on the XR beadlock capable wheels as they are usually very hard to remove. The fitting on the inflator for Power Tank is nice but same problem as the Haltecs. I actually replaced the fitting on my inflator with the Locknflate. I replaced the Haltecs on my Morrflate setup with clip-ons. The Haltecs work really good not connected to a hose for sticking on your spare tire when you hit the trails to deflate it so you don't damage your rear door if you land on the spare,

Is there any reason to keep the spare inflated at all?

I usually leave mine inflated when I'm on the road. When I re-inflate my tires I do the spare also on the last day on the trails.

Could you expand on that? I was looking into the Kraken tire inflation system, but if these fittings don't work well with the XR wheels, I'll have to look elsewhere.

The Haltecs push onto the valve stem easily but are difficult to remove. I was concerned that I would break a valve stem taking them on and off. So I switched to clip-ons. Bought them on Amazon. I would do the same to the Kraken hoses. Keep the Haltecs in case you get different rims. I wouldn’t let that issue stop me from getting the Kraken setup.

I bought two sets of these $22 (4 pack). for the inflator systems I Amazoned together. Much cheaper than the packages, better hoses, and each hose the optimal length.

I just ordered these today. Glad to see someone else has used them from the forum.. making my own 4 tire inflation setup to go with my new dual compressor. Still need to mount it and run power to it though -_-
Let me know if you need links for any other parts.

I was able to find a bunch of the parts needed at my shop. Use this stuff all the time for running compressed air valves. Zero cost out of pocket. Still need to figure out where I want to mount the compressor and quick disconnect setup. Thank you though!
