VALVE STEMS

[dodgeguy]

Hi, time for new tires , plan to install my self. Heard that my 47 d24 has "oval " rubber valve stems, if so where can I locate these parts/ Thanks

usually online as I have not seen them local but I would not say that everywhere would be the same....your local big box may have these..check with some of the hot rod shops ads in a mag

 

also the search engine for this site is very useful and just type in oval valve stem and you will find a few sources referenced...

You could try a "Google" search. I used screw in brass oval valve stems in the past they worked great, bought at local quality tire shop, not some "Fountain Tire" joint....

Try a real tire shop that does commercial work.

Check H5010V, I was able to get mine at a tire wholesaler.

They were a stock item.

I had the same requirement a few years ago. Could not find the right stems. I ended up using round one until I could get ovals one....they are still in there with no issues.

Same here....I have the round ones on there and they worked fine while I had the old wheels on the car. 

[Plymouthy Adams]

I believe we referred to the larger round ones as Ford style long ago as they were the predominant user of that size...using these would be a stop gap item while looking/securing proper style.

I always use the larger round ones-never leak. Simple.

[Plymouthy Adams]

Seems the larger ones are the answer....and these are even available at Walmart..seem them there the other day...

Was the oval hole to accommodate the inner tube stem?
