I believe we should give credit where credit is due. Richard is the one that opened my eyes to this kit so I won't take credit for any of it's design except for adding the valve core extractor to it.

You'll need a CO2 tank. I bought one at a local paintball supply house and it was used and filled up for $20 I believe. I made a second one then I had to buy that tank new.

You'll need a hose to go from the tank to the air chuck. There are several options here. You can use a coiled hose meant for paintball or you can use a grease gun hose because they are the same threads or you can use one of these fancy air chucks with the hose made onto it. Some of the paintball coiled hoses already come with the valve you need to open and close the tank.

Then you'll need a locking chuck of your choice. There are several different styles so just choose one. You'll need to take the valve out of the air chuck so you can get more volume into the tire to pop a bead back on.

This next tool is not required but it is extremely useful. It will remove the valve core and retain it so you don't drop it in the mud and then it will allow you to re-install the valve core without losing any air.

If you choose to use a grease gun hose, here's the valve that you'll need for opening and closing the CO2 supply.

Here's a couple videos of the inflator in use and one video I made in the shop about how the valve core tool works.

HUH? :confused:What's me?

Oh I was just giving you a hard time. Tiger didn't want to be involved with your shenanigans giving Hondasxs a hard time. So I told my bad, it's just you poking our leader.

I carry a small shovel with me. I got stuck in my 700 where a stump went into one of the holes in the skid plate. was in a rut and tires dug down which just made it go deeper. two 4500 lb winches, and snatch blocks and we were not able to move it. 1 broken axle as well. Finally we used the shovel to dig away in front of all 4 wheels and used logs jammed down in there to get it out. Doing that i also had a valve stem get pulled out. But the shovel is what saved the day for that one.

Do you not read your own forum?:rolleyes: @Delton and I had to use my high-lift to move a tree out of the trail because someone forgot their chainsaw. There was no turning around and we had to move it. I never dive headlong into a questionable mudhole unless I have another rig with me. I've also seen what a 5000lb winch will haul and it will haul a honda sxs up an angle that was almost impossible to walk.. again a video on your forum, (you need to watch other videos besides mudman;)..LOL
Did you not read he asked that question, in that post is over 3 years Old (January 2014)? Where were you then? Put on your cheaters old man do some reading of your own you salty seaman.

Back on topic, I have the highlighter UTV Jack and a 3" wide towing strap. Winch gives out use the Jack and strap or chains as a come-a-long, slow but effective.

Actually you need to read all the posts sir. That had been pointed out and I responded before you woke from your old man nap... Maybe it's you who have hit the proverbial old wall?o_O

I covered 4900 miles across 17 States over the past 5 days, sorry I posted 6 hrs after Joey pointed it out. I have neither the time or inclination to go through every post of alcohol infused gibberish from lunatic minds. :p

Along with the gloves, Snatch block, treesaver, shackle, shovel, chainsaw, CO2 Kit with Vulcanized patches and plugs.
I also have a 50' Winch rope extension, extra shackles, and a 20' - 2"strap the rope extension is Nice you can use it a couple of ways. Usually by add it to the end of the rope and running it through the snatch block or just adding it to the end and getting a LONG pull.

When shopping for snatch blocks, Do you purchase based on the weight limit of your winch on a single line pull? Or double it?
I own a Terra 45SR. Do I shop for a snatch block rated at least 4500 pounds? Or 9,000 pounds?
Is the Warn Epic 92097 rated at 5,000lbs a perfect match? Or go nuts with the 92188 rated at 12,000lbs?

I don't mind overkill, but there is a huge price difference between the 2.

Well then jump right in anywhere you want when you can.;) It doesn't matter. Us alcohol infused lunatics will standby. Oh, wait is that like being called a deplorable? That would be a good thing because I'm proud to be deplorable!:D OH Crap, was that being political? Now I've done it... I'm off topic and political.. I'm untrainable apparently
