I carry all my repair stuff in my M35, so I can fix a tire
anywhere. I have an adapter hose that uses the trucks air
compressor. The air chuck clips onto and stays on the valve
stem, and I slide the wheel/tire under the rear axle
pumpkin(just fits), then start the truck and pump up the
tire. If it lets go, I am safe. no problems yet, and I
always make sure that the lock ring is completely seated
before inflating.
