Large bore valve stems and accessories

So I had a tire that was consantly losing pressure over the winter. I finally broke it down, cleaned it up, and put a beadlock in there. While it was apart, I put some large bore valve stems I got from Fuzzytoaster and I must say, the Hemtt rims should have come with these! Way better than stock imho. ANYHOO, I was able to find plenty of large to standard adapters to go on the valve stem, but I want an air chuck to match. No luck on Egay, where are you guys getting yours?

As an aside, I had LOTS of mud and pebbles between the tire and rim. That was the reason for the leaking air! Maybe the beadlock will help. Just a heads up to all you guys that wheel with tubeless tires.

I use a clip on style from gemplers. I just screw it onto a flexhose type gauge/chuck.
Same h4660a # at napa

Or northern tool carries them as well.

For large bore filling when you need to use a truck to seat the bead I rigged up a 3/8" air line with no trigger. Cause I get tired of holding it. So it will put a ton of air into it

Napa number for the large bore clip on chuck is 90-53320180721_095857.jpg
