    Im not certain of the pressure equalizers……if you have 1 tire going flat…does that mean you have 2 since your equalizing the pressure?

    Yep, but there is a little eye that opens up to let you visually know that the pressure is low.

    I know of crossfires….they are the ones that allow both tires to go flat...

    The easiest way to check them is to fill them to 120 when they are new & freshly mounted on rims, and verify the psi. Then run it Til it pops and check the new one before it's mounted back on the truck


    :p

    I see guys that must use this system-because it's easiest.
