I have KO3s and Nokian LT3 snow tires on 17 inch steel OEM rims Ordered an Owl under passenger seat air compressor.

Looking for a way to deflate and inflate the tires. It seems that some tires do better with a differential of Front/Back, so I was thinking about a hose set up that will fill two tires at a time from the front seat.

I see there are electronic gauges- will they also automatically stop the flow of air at a certain pressure on filling? On deflating? Or get the value stems for airing down.

I see that the value stems on the IG have an extra set of threads on them? Is this for specialized adaptions?
 
These are not permanently fitted systems. You fit them as needed to the air compressor:

AIR COMPRESSOR ACCESSORIES - MUTLI-TYRE INFLATE OR DEFLATE SYSTEMS
  1. MAXTRAX Indeflate (2 and 4 hose versions). AU Distributor of the South African Indeflate;
  2. Campboss Air De-flate 4;
  3. Ironman Air Champ Dual Inflator;
  4. Air Parts Australia 4-way Tire Inflator/Deflator;
  5. MORRFlate Multi-Tire inflation and deflation kits, they also US and Canada websites;
  6. BOSS Air Suspension Air Management Systems;
  7. QuatroAir Pro: 4-Tyre Hose Kit;
  8. Clearview Tyre Spider (4 hose); and
  9. DFL8 Manual AU made tyre deflators here.

Morriflate in action , paired with an ARB fixed twin compressor. Also work well with my T-Max 160l/m portable compressor

What length hoses did you get? My Compressor is under the right (US passenger) seat, so to reach the drivers rear tire, without going over body work of thru the cabin, what length did you get?
Do I see that you need to use an adaptor between the Morflate and the ARB?
Do you air down with the same set up, or use something else?

My compressor is under the left hand (passenger) seat. I use a Morrflate duo with 24’ hose which is plenty long enough to reach around the vehicle and yes I can use it to deflate as well. The standard Morrflate kit I got plugs directly into the ARB COMPRESSOR. I went for the double hose as I tend to keep higher pressure in the back tires.
You could get a quad hose and leave two disconnected if you want different pressures between front and back. I use an air blower on one hose and leave one disconnected as required.
 
I was thinking the double hose just for storage and space.

You can use it to deflate, do you? Or do you use something else?

I have an ARB deflator as well which takes the valve cores out. The Morrflate is more convenient to deflate by pulling the slide collar out when not connected to the compressor
