I don't know if this qualifies or not. I can air all four up or down at once with this setup. Nice too to equalize all four to the same pressure.

That setup looks a lot like 4crawler's 4air:

Overlord - Ya, I may have seen one somewhere and then made my own. I made it about three or four years ago and remember posting pics somewhere (SOR?)

Bailey - For a rough reading of the pressure with the valve closed you can just look at the gauge. For a more accurate reading you can do what you said with a more accurate gauge. I bought the clip on chuck at NAPA, part #90-524. I also use the tool in the pic to press the male ends in the hose. You could use rad clamps instead - this is just a little cleaner. The manifold I got from Quality Farm and Fleet. The went out of business around here about two years ago and were replaced with Tractor Supply. I'm pretty sure it is made by Milton. Alot of that air stuff is. Here is a link from a quick Google that shows them. Scroll down to part numbers 366835 and/or 336836. It would save you a bunch of work just to buy one.

Edit - oops, forgot the link.

wow, Photoman that is trick , I really like the equilize idea, you always have perfectly equilized tires

I wonder if I could build that for about the same cost as deflators?

Probably much cheaper IMO, I use a cheapo Harbor Freight coil hose and some of their fittings to do each axle at once. Cost around $20 last year.
