A3 wheel valve stems

M35A3 wheel valve stem idea's?

I just picked up a set of M35A3 wheels and tires from Mark (100dollarman) and need advise on the easiest way to go from the CTIS crap thats on there now to regular valve stems.The wheel that was the vehicles spare has a pipe elbow thats been bushed down to valve stem size.Looks a bit cavemanish to me.

Any idea's will help.Thanks!

No ideas, but I'd be interested in some of the CTIS bit's your taking off. I'm going to try and make that work on my A3.

Clarke- I think your CTIS works!

I am not 100% sure because the tires are all aired up and I havent messed with it- maybe if I get some free time (yeah, right!) to check it better...

You can bypass all of the ctis plumbing by attaching a brass bushing with a valve stem to the 3/8" pipe that comes out of the rim.

You can get the bushing 3/8" NP to 1/8" NP and valve stem at an auto parts store (valve stem will be in the air compressor accessories section) or at a DIY store like Lowes or Home Depot (valve stem will be in the well pump section).

Hope this will fix you. If you have any left over CTIS wheel valves you want rid of, pm me. Ron Woods
