Dually Valve Stems
Do yourself a favor...order a set of these for YOUR specific model coach and have a truck tire shop install them for you. You won't regret it.
My coach had the braided extenders on it when I bought it. First trip....we blew a tire due to tire age and due to the extender leaking. Replaced all the tires, put new braided extenders and without fail, before every trip I had to add air because one of them was leaking. I replaced the valve stems with the ones linked above and for the past year and a half, I have not had to add air but once before a trip and that was because I didn't get the pressure gauge pushed on properly and let too much air out before I could check it.
And for the record.....I ALWAYS check the pressures in the morning when cold on travel day. I would suggest that everyone does as well, but that's individual preference I guess.
