I was looking to order a set of these or the Baja Built valve stems. Is drilling a second valve stem hole required or can I run these or the Baja built valve stems in the factory location on my wheels?
Yes, you can run either of those in the factory location. Apex tire deflators: www.northridge4x4.com/part/tire-accessories/x02-02-001-apex-performance-3-0-rapid-precision-valve-4pc Baja Built Deflators: www.northridge4x4.com/part/wheel-accessories/bb-revo-xl-5-baja-built-revo-rapid-tire-deflator-valve-set-5pcs
For the price, they would have made sense if they had a set PSI to drop the pressure to... lets say set them at 8 PSI and just flick the lever and walk away...
That would be a nice addition. If you're looking for new wheels, the TeraFlex Nomad wheels have a cool air down system: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C73K_35m5s4.html
@@northridgenation From their FAQ at: www.apexdesignsusa.com/pages/f-a-q-s "Will this allow us to air up faster? The air valve has about 20% more flow than standard on the air up, not as drastic an improvement as the air down. It was primarily designed for fast (and precise) deflation & to use standard inflation tools." Anecdotally, I can say that it does seem a little bit faster than my stock valves, so it's a double win in my book ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Takes me less than 5 mins to air down all 4 tires right now but for $120 I can cut maybe 2 mins off that lol. Ok seriously though not a horrible price and a good idea but those would end up getting broke off the first time I went out. I would rather spend the $4 to replace a standard valve stem every 6 months then $30-$40 possibly every time I go out.
@@c938695 Have you ever heard of automatic deflators like Staun or Trailhead? They are faster than any manual method, as you simply screw them on and walk away until they are done deflating. You don't need to sit and babysit each tire while it deflates.
If you have rubber valves anyone could rip those out, tpms sensors stems easily snap off. Knifes also go through sidewalks just as easy. But chances are if you have this you also have a compressor etc in your vehicle.
