4 tire inflate/ deflate set up?

[AndrewS85]

I run a viair compressor and it’s time for a new hose/ Chuck. What’s everyone running? Seems like the morreflate set up is nice. Also checked out Utah foundry.

I have two friends with the Morrflate and I have a Viair 400P and the Morrflate inflates 4 37's faster than I can air up two 35's. They are nice.

Happy Morrflate 4way airhose customer, I just installed my own analog dial. Any 4way is a great way to air up and down. We originally used it with a SmittyBuilt until it imploded. Now using the Morrflate compressor without auto off and everything is much faster.

Anyone running the Moorflate air hub?

I made my own for approx. $150.

I bought the Utah Design Foundry (UDF) set up during the holidays. It's a basic set but works pretty well on my Viair 400P. I noticed the system gauge and my TPMS don't quite agree, but it's close enough for me. The chucks are stiff; I used some silicon spray to make them easier to use. I'm sure they will get better as they are used.

I did have a leaky connection on one side of the manifold. I contacted UDF and they sent me a whole new kit! Excellent customer service and a decent product at a very good price.

I run a twin ARB under the passenger seat of my 22 JLR with a Kraken system. EPIC Kraken Tire Inflation System for Jeep Wrangler & Gladiator (JL/JT – EPIC Adventure Outfitters

Then I run a twin ARB in the bed of my 21 gladiator, with connection much like the Kraken, so I can do all 4 at once. I use Trail deflators for airing down.

ARB Twin with the ARB under seat mount on the passenger side. I added a T fitting and a short length of braided stainless hose to the drivers side. Used a piece of flat aluminum stock to make a cheap mount on the drivers side. I use two of the Morrflate duo hose kits that I shortened the hoses on

Thanks for the replies everyone.

I'm not where I want to be yet. But I have Apex Designs RPV rapid deflators. I couldn't be happier with those. I can air down my 37s in about 10 seconds each, not counting screwing the cap on and off.

My inflating equipment isn't where I'd like to end up. I'm currently using a Viair 440P portable and a dual hose setup I made from Harbor Fright parts. I have a couple other higher output compressors, which I may mount and plumb for onboard air. The identical setup @Terrymo has is what I'm leaning toward, with the possible exception of the 4 hose setup. I hate coiling hoses. But maybe a custom length 4 hose setup with just enough length for my uses, would be more convenient than having an eleventy million foot generic hose system.

I've also been thinking about installing some large inflator valves, like heavy equipment uses. These are larger diameter stems and Schrader valves with much higher fill and bleed rates. Your standard Schrader valves are a limitation to inflating. I'd machine a second valve port for that in each wheel. There are commercial versions made by PowerTank and others, as well as just buying heavy equipment valve stems.

I shortened my hoses using Flexzilla fittings. The hoses are only a foot longer than the farthest the valve stem could be on each tire. Not the cheapest setup but I’m not dragging the hoses through mud and dirt. I store them in a Bucket Boss jumper cable bag

I usually throw the hoses in the back of the Jeep after airing up and deal with them in an OCD manner after I get home.

I bought a couple of these hoses that I use now. I haven't even trimmed them yet. But I like the hose material itself. After a couple years, it's holding up well. I think I'll make up more convenient lengths and install the compressor under the seat and put in the QDs on both sides like you did.
