Hey, you could do what I did.... I wanted to replace my bradded extensions, but ended up trading in the RV for a new one that had solid extensions... Now that was a costly move. LOL

I'll check in with hubby on that one and see what he says LOL.

I'll be calling the Borg guys later this week once we're setup in our new site (and thus have a mailing address). I like the idea of turning the outer stem so we don't need an extension on it. I'll chat to the tire guys about this too (we're going to use Superior Tire in Eugene, OR for our tire replacement). All great tips!

Oh, and you'll be the first to know if hubby goes for the new rig approach

Just to let everyone know we got the new BORG stems, got our tires ordered and are getting everything replaced on Friday. Should be good to go!

We used Superior Tire in Portland, OR they were good. The guy there turned around the valve stems and then gave us fill through caps. We do not have a TPMS so not sure if the sensors will work on the fill through caps.

When I put new tires on I removed the braided extensions and put on the fill through caps. Works great.

The very first mod I did was to install the Borg Valves on my new Adventurer...the only way to fly!

So, all went swimmingly yesterday at the tire spot. Got 4 nice new (17th week of this year) Michelin XZE tires on the back, plus new Borg stems. We also added Dyna Beads. Very happy with the result.
