Looking for a QD connector for the tire stem
I have been searching in google, and nothing seems to come up, I probably haven't been searching with the right "terms".

I have found a lot of standard air-tool couplers:


But what I want is similar to the QD part on the left of the above pic but one that work with our automotive tire stems. I want it to secure to the tire stems rather than needing to manually hold it in place.

What's the right name for such part?

Also, what's a cheap place to buy them(the connector and other air-tool/air-tube connectors/splitters etc..) online and/or offline.

This hose is similar to what came on my Viair compressor. http://www.amazon.com/Viair-00025-De...rds=viair+hose

I also have this. The warn is higher quality. http://www.warn.com/truck/accessorie...sory_kit.shtml

I doubt you'll find a QD type as pictured above. Those will not release unless you manually disconnect them; and for safety reasons you just don't see them. There is a clip on air chuck that serves the same purpose but will pop off if the air pressure gets too high. It has a lever clip under the head that holds on to the threads of the valve stem. You can get them at any auto parts store.

On the warn kit you have to hold the lever down to let air in the tire. On the Viair kit you just shut the compressor off.

The Coilhose Pneumatics CH15 Closed Lock-On Chuck, 1/4-Inch FPT is what you seek. I have gone through a lot of different chucks and this one is the best.
