I have had a set of these on the MH since last January. They have
worked very well for me. Others that ordered this system after me. Did
not do so well getting them delivered. That's another story.
One of the problems I have had is getting the sensors mounted on the
front aluminum wheels. The hole is only about a 1/4" larger than the
Sensors. No way to get at stem or sensor. Very hard to remove cap and
check air pressure unless you have a straight truck type air gauge. I
got one at the FMCA rally that does very well. Also got a chuck that
has a straight end fitting.
For the TPMS sensors I took a piece of 1 1/2" rubber hose and cut a
angle on it to match the angle on the sensor's. This type of tool
should work with the different manufactures valve stem sensors. Best
part it does not require a extension.
