I think I need to take tire off the rim to change the stem? if so, it was loaded with what I thought is something like salt water, but don't know. I have heard of many types of liquid to put bad in. what would be best or maybe cheap but good. thanks for helping. [Reply]   [No Email]

I think Miller Tire shows them on there site. If you roll the tire so the valve stem is at the top and jack up the tractor you should be able change the valve stem without removing the tire. See millertire.com Look at "tire supplies" page 2 at the end they are there. Most tires that are loaded are loaded with calcium chloride, if it leaks it will rust your rims.If it doesn't leak you are good to go. I think this is what you are talking about. Good Luck [Reply]  [No Email]

You may have to replace the other part also that the stem goes into since tractor rear tubes are a 2 part thing so you have a larger hole for pumping the fluid in [Reply]  [No Email]
