Dually valve extension issue, question

I use these from Alcoa



Have not had a problem. I figure that if Alcoa sells them to the big boys, they must be good for our little motorhomes.

Those are basically solid valve extensions for the inner dual. They would probably be better than the braided extensions, but they are still just extensions, not entire valve stem replacements like the Dually Valves.

The problem I had originally, that started this thread, was that the U shaped valve extension on the outer dual came loose. A solid valve extension for the inner dual would not really address that issue.

On another note, wny_pat: I'd love to hear some more specifics of just how your son lost two tires, due to using Dually Valve replacement valve stems? And, just how, why the company you used to work for decided they were 'no good'? That seems very, very hard to believe, based on everything I've read about these valves, and the people I've talked to about them.
