Valve stem extension

carl.swoyer said:

Getting ready to replace my tires on my Silverado dually.
I have the polished aluminum rims.
To accept the TST TECHNOLOGIES TPMS sensors, which valve extension should I purchase.
I have the non pass thru sensors. So to top off the tires I have to remove the sensors.
Thanks in advance.

He's asking about mounting sensors on a dually.

We have a dually and TST and do not use an extension.

Same for me. I do have the flow-through on inside dually but they are old style and don’t let me fill easy so I remove them to fill. Wouldn’t need extensions with non flow-through.

You'll want the high pressure metal stems. NO RUBBER. I knew this but when I got new tires they put on the ones that are metal setting in rubber. Didn't make 100 miles before the stem cracked.
see below link for example of the stems you need

if you put sensor on the end of extension the temp sensor reading will be way off. I run flow sensor on wheel and put extension on inside dually so can reach better. going on 4 years with no problem
