valve stems

Post by dotcentral »

I'm running the original steel wheels. these take those sort of coke bottle shaped valve stems. I haven't found a place locally that carries this type of valve stem. Most places have no idea what I'm talking about. Anyone know a place that carries these?

F100?

Should take a standard stem, there are basically 4 versions

Big, Small and Short and Long.

It should take "BIG" and Long will work best if you have full wheel covers., short might work better if not.

F100, full wheel covers. The base of the valve stem is wider that what is found on most cars today. From the base it sort of necks down to take the standard size valve stem cap.
