Go to Alcoa wheels web site. They have a great gauge and also air chuck that you can order right there. They work great.

Why do you need the air chuck? Not questioning, I'm just ignoranat about why you need it. I am also wanting to get the right equipment due to worries about proper air pressure.

The air chuck is needed if you carry a compressor or use your on-board air system. The dual headed chuck allows you to reach both the inside and outside dual tires. I found this one:

works best for my rig. It has the 45 degree reversed head (which is pretty standard) but has a straight ahead fitting that reaches my inside tires with no problem.

You should check out the air chuck that Les Schwab Tire sells. It has a straight forward outlet and the reverse outlet is set 180 degree opposite not 45 degrees. That is much easier to use than the 45 degree outlet on the outside wheels (I've used both). Call them and they will mail you the unit, it's great.

Just ordered the gauge, chuck, and an adaptor for the chuck (allows it to take inlet air from standard hoses) for Les Schwab.

Thanks
