I'm relatively new to the RV scene having bought a slightly used Winnebago Via 2012 - only 4000 miles on it. I was amazed it was allowed to be on the road with no access to rear dual valves! The Mercedes dealer who services the Sprinter chassis had no solution. The RV dealers wanted to sell braided extensions and collect $250 for installation. RV forums led me to the Duallyvalve, which I had to import into Canada - not available locally - nor had the truck tire folks heard of them.
I found the Duallyvalve offered by Bill Falkenborg at Borg (www.duallyvalve.com). Had them installed by a local truck tire repair depot - they were so impressed they asked for the business card. Total cost was half that quoted by RV dealers for extensions and installation.
I'm so delighted by the results - they matched exactly the Via/Sprinter wheels including support rubber inserts. Now I have to educate the local Mercedes dealers so they can service their "Incomplete vehicle" as the Sprinter plate states. Thanks, Borg! Now I can love the Via again.
