Steel wheel valve rubber supports

[wdweldon]

Any ideas where I can get the parts for the inside wheel value stem supports and extensions (if needed)?

I would call a freight liner dealer, they should have them.

Those rubber inserts are specific to Freightliner. If you look at those openings in the aluminum wheels, they are a variation of the Freightliner logo. Those wheels go on all Freightliner chassis motor homes these days, and on a lot of their trucks. They are kind of attractive.

There is a recall on those through Daimler Trucks/Freightliner: https://www.rvtravel.com/forest-rive...B6XKj29ixlAJWQ

I had that issue on a trip to Florida before i installed my TPMS. Luckily I caught it in the morning before we left. I removed the worn valve stem and added air to the tire. It was down to 80 lbs from the 100 psi original setting. I searched around the Jacksonville area and found a replacement valve stem. The original rubber was still on the old stem but not in the rim. I put the new stem on and reinstalled the rubber. It was installed backwards from the factory. I have a tpms now but check the rubbers every time I stop. I hope the repair from Freightliner will solve the problem.
