TPMS on dually
Inside dual tires are too tight to install TPMS screw on sensors. Those that have tire monitor system what did you do to be able to screw sensors on INSIDE tires??
I removed short extensions that were on valve stems.
Thanks

I installed braided extensions, which have a bracket the you pop rivet to the center cap. I posted pics back when I did it, I think 2014.

Can you suggest a dependable brand and also the length needed for ONLY the i nside tires. The outsides are NOT a problem.
Thanks again

I have not seen just the inners. I have a link saved on Amazon, cause I gave a new dually. Still deciding if I put these sensors on when I have them built in.

Looks like they changed how the end attaches to the outside tire on them now. I like the way you're are riveted to center hub cap.

I left on vacation w my fw, and towed 350 miles. I had a TPMS alarm about 200 miles in, but all was ok. The next morning as I was hooking up, I noticed the right rear center cap and the outside extension and TPMS sensor were gone! The inside extension was still there, w sensor and the little bracket.
The full metal valve stem on the outer wheel was sheared off, exposing the core!
Ford had replaced the rear axle seals under warranty, and apparently didn't get one center cap on completely.
Discount Tire replaced the valve stem for free, and I had to order another TPMS sensor.

I have the EezTire tpms system on my truck for all six wheels and the four wheels on the camper. I had no trouble putting the EezTire sensors on the inner duals, but I did not put the anti-theft caps on the inners.

I only ordered the SS braided lines for the inside wheels. Wheel Masters Airless 2 hose inflation kit #WM 80022. After talking with TST Truck System i am NOT sure these are going to work with this system??
Won't know until I receive them from E Trailer
