personally I found stauns a PITA to set but once set tape them up or superglue them or something. Maybe it's just me but I find they keep working loose.
Last time I got pliers to tighten them and have been fine since.

Maybe I'm just a big soft girlie and can't tighten them

Hi Stevan
The trick is make sure you DONT screw/unscrew using the top,easily done!!!!!(experience here!!!!!)
Another tip which I havent done yet.Set 2 at a higher pressure for general 4wding,ie 22lbs and paint them.Leave the other 2 set at the min pressure you want leave them un-painted.For the beach you still fit all 4 then use the lower ones to finish the other 2.
AGRO,they are very good.you can air down 2 and possibly 3 vehicles in the time a person does theirs the old way!!!!

I have 2 at 20psi and 2 at 25psi. Love it.

Never had a problem with mine changing their setting and I've had them about 4 or 5 years and only reset them once about 1 year ago. I don't loctite them or anything like that either. Just screw on and off using the non moving bits.

Hi Mate


Me and the old man love to watch the DVD my 68 year old father is always my navagatar I dont know why I watch them theres never a landrover but any way the strap was a bonus

I asked why they havent had any LR as the feture cars and the reason I get is that no body puts there hand up

in the past there has been 2 Disco2 and Fender in the back round

My wife hates me buying them as she use to work for express publications and hates me giving them money

Without them, I wouldn't bother renewing to be quite honest.

I'm the same as you, I wouldn't bother renewing. I just got the staun tyre deflators so that was a good deal I though. But my mate signed up for the led work light and it has been 8 weeks since he signed and still nothing except a letter saying sorry it has not come but they have not sent any mags to him yet either.
