TSTT on Journey?

[Automobilist]

Bought a six wheel tpms from TSTT.

I assumed I could simply order the product, receive it, and install it. Wrong.

Couldn't figure how to install the sensors, then realized they had not shipped their specific "wrench" to install... Got the "wrench", went out to install and none of the sensors will go on any of my wheels. The Accuride alloys are not shaped to accomodate the sensors. So now I guess I get to go buy extensions? Will I even be able to install the rears without removing the wheels? I hope the benefit is worth the hassle...

Not sure what size the TST sensors are but when I installed the Pressure Pro sensors on my 2004 Meridian with Accuride rims I had to use 2" chrome extensions on the front ones but the inside rear valve stem already reached through far enough for a good installation and the outside dual was right out in the open. I've had to try a couple different brands of 2" extensions to find ones that would let the sensor press the valve core down good enough to read the pressure. Things can get real frustrating but once it all works out the results are worth it. The first two years I had mine everything worked just fine but lately after having new tires and valve stems installed I've been having trouble getting one of the rear sensors to read the pressure. For the time being all 10 (6 on the coach & 4 on the toad) are working like they should.

Didn't know you needed a special tool to install the sensors, mine just hand screw on the end of the valve stem in place of the valve cap.

Good luck.
